Westwell Showcases Its Smart Airport Solution Based on AI and New Energy at the IATA WCS
The World Cargo Symposium (WCS) hosted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) pertained to a successful conclusion in Hong Kong, China from March 12 to 14. This is the largest and most influential yearly event in the global air cargo sector. As a global leader in "intelligent and new energy" detailed services in the logistics industry, Westwell showcased its brand-new "clever airport logistics and ground management" holistic solution at the occasion. Just recently, Westwell developed its worldwide head office and overseas R&D center in Hong Kong. The official launching of Westwell Hong Kong Company at this event will accelerate its worldwide service expansion by using Hong Kong's global resources, and promote the clever and sustainable transformation of the logistics market based upon intelligent and brand-new energy innovations.
Themed by "driving sustainable and inclusive growth", this year's WCS collected crucial representatives from international air freight terminals, freight forwarders, and solution service providers to explore brand-new improvement techniques. Westwell has originated a holistic smart airport logistics and ground management solution for the airport scenario in the logistics market. This solution utilizes autonomous driving technology for cargo transport and AI innovation for cargo circulation, accomplishing an intelligent and green upgrade across the entire chain from freight forwarder, cargo terminal, to apron.


"Airports are the strategic circumstances for Westwell to expand its global logistics service, and we are making efforts to innovate towards efficiency, security, and carbon decrease in the international air cargo market. Our study on the transport safety needs of customers associated with airports and air freight revealed that clever airport logistics solutions can not be fully carried out exclusively based upon on-board vehicle intelligence. Therefore, Westwell devoted itself to R&D and has established a holistic wise transportation solution that includes "GSE (Ground Support Devices) scheduling management system + intelligent ground transport equipment" for airport logistic customers around the world. On the other hand, we will work with our worldwide supply chain partners to achieve more sustainable and smart airport logistics," said Kay Yang, the International Strategy Vice President of Westwell.
As a brand-new energy autonomous driving tractor, Q-Tractor P40 is an innovative ground transportation equipment established by Westwell, and plays an essential role in the holistic solution for the airport scenario. Based upon AI innovation, Q-Tractor P40 has been upgraded to have a hauling capacity of up to 40T; based upon advanced autonomous driving, it can adjust to complex scenarios and provide a safe and easy to use driving experience. In addition, Q-Tractor P40 flexibly changes between "manned and autonomous driving" modes according to various airport operating rules.It utilizes clean energy throughout its operations, adding to eco-friendly carbon decrease and total effectiveness enhancement.


In westwell of significant security obligations and complicated environmental systems at airports, Westwell's GSE scheduling management system allows airports to collaborate and manage on-site cargo lorries and equipment in a much safer, smarter, and more detailed method. Through intelligent ground detection, the system controls car operations in real time to make sure apron security; through GSE coordination, scheduling and planning, the system boosts the effectiveness of GSE coordinated operations and decreases aircraft turn-around time; through cargo details exchange, the system uses better ground cargo handling plans to improve the security of important items throughout ground transportation.
Moreover, Westwell likewise introduced a digital platform for the transport and operation of production elements-- Loopo, which focuses on offering freight logistics items and information services for various scenarios. Particularly tailored for air freight representatives, Loopo uses targeted supply chain services. By integrating intelligent applications and AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) technology, Loopo makes sure exact supply chain management, providing lower-cost order management and tracking, more efficient optimization and sharing of supply chain resources, transparent and trustworthy transport process tracking, and a greener transportation structure for its consumers.

With effective full-stack AI advancement capabilities, Westwell has advertised its holistic new energy autonomous driving solution to cover logistics scenarios including seaports, railways, inland ports, airports, and making plants.To satisfy the needs of airport organization expansion all over the world, Westwell insists on "automating cargo automobiles before tourist car upgrade and running autonomous tractors outside the flight location and after that around the airplane within the flight location". Centered around airport cargo terminals, we extend internally to the airside and externally serve freight forwarder transportation, assisting airport customers develop a modern wise logistics network that begins with air freight and links air, sea, rail, and roadway transportation.
