FIEGE: Optimized Air Cargo Handling with AI and IoT
Using artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics and Deutsche Telekom are revolutionizing air cargo handling at Frankfurt Airport. The implementation of depth sensors and LTE enables precise three-dimensional measurement and contour verification of air cargo pallets.
“With the help of AI and IoT, we have developed an assistance system with great added value for our operations together with Telekom.”
Jannis Kumbrink, Teamlead Strategic Development bei FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics
Challenge
FIEGE Air Cargo Logistics sought a way to optimize the build-up processfor air cargo pallets. This process demands precision to maximize the use of available cargo space while adhering to strict safety regulations. Errors in the process can lead to delays, additional costs, and even penalties.
Solution
At Frankfurt Airport, the two companies implemented a digital inspection system powered by AI Vision, a Telekom-supported image and video analysis platform. Multiple LiDAR sensors capture the depth data of pallets in real time, enabling precise three-dimensional measurement and contour verification.
Customer benefit
The digitalization and automation of the build-up process significantly enhance its efficiency and speed, enabling smoother and faster operations. By leveraging digital documentation of packing processes, FIEGE can identify areas for improvement, leading to long-term efficiency gains and cost savings. Additionally, automated measurements strengthen quality assurance by immediately detecting and correcting any errors, ensuring high standards are consistently met.
