The Rotterdam Port Equipment Upgrade Project provides a typical example. After introducing the Enjue semi-automatic system at the port, the response time for a single spreader failure was reduced from 4.2 hours to 47 minutes, and labor costs were reduced by 30%, but no layoffs were made. "After three months of training, the veteran employees were transformed into system administrators, and the younger employees were better at operating the digital interface, and this echelon structure gave us peace of mind." According to the person in charge of the project, the payback period of the program is only 2.3 years, which is 11 months shorter than the original plan.
However, there is always controversy. Some critics have pointed out that semi-automation is only a transitional solution that may delay the process of ultimate intelligence. In this regard, Enjue admits: "Full automation requires a highly standardized environment and huge capital investment, and 80% of small and medium-sized logistics enterprises have a warehouse isomerization rate of more than 60%. Our goal is not to replace people, but to amplify the value of people with technology. He demonstrated the anti-shake assist function live: when the sensor detects fatigue tremors in the operator's arm, the system automatically compensates for the trajectory deviation, improving the loading and unloading accuracy to 99.2%.
"Intelligence is not a black-and-white multiple-choice question." By 2025, we plan to increase the human-computer interaction response speed of the semi-automatic spreader line by another 40%, and at the same time invest 20% of the R&D budget to explore 'modular transformation' - so that traditional spreaders can also upgrade intelligent modules in stages, which is the pragmatic path for the transformation of China's manufacturing industry."
