Lödige Industries expands Saigon Cargo Service Corporation air cargo terminal

 

Lödige Industries, a leading global supplier of material handling systems, has successfully completed the expansion of a cargo terminal of the Saigon Cargo Service Corporation (SCSC). With the integration of a second Elevating Transfer Vehicle (ETV) and an additional 150 storage positions, the handling capacity of the existing facility was doubled during ongoing operations.

Scalability is an important criterion in many construction projects, after all, you want to be optimally prepared for future growth. The development of a 20-foot elevating transfer vehicle and a 150-bay storage system by Lödige Industries at Saigon Cargo Service Corporation a few years ago was accompanied by a potential doubling of capacity, which was considered in the planning for the project, which was completed in 2010. This paid off just a few years later. Thanks in part to the state-of-the-art handling technology, SCSC was able to grow its business so much within a short space of time that it became necessary to expand the facility.

In 2022, the two project partners initiated a second – now successfully completed – project phase, another brand new ETV was integrated into the existing system. In addition, the storage system was expanded to include a third and fourth level which added a further 150 storage locations. The programmable logic controller (PLC) was also modernized during this recent project phase.

“The project was designed for a possible expansion right from the start. That’s why doubling the handling capacity during ongoing operations was particularly seamless here. Especially as we have extensive expertise in the expansion of existing cargo facilities,” says Patrick Ho, Senior Project Manager at Lödige Industries.
