Why are ULDs important to us?

ULDs are valuable for many reasons

ü Speeds up the loading and unloading processes

ü Allows cargo/mail to be built off airport

ü Restrains items while onboard the aircraft

ü Provides some fire protection

ü Lowers employee injuries compared to bulk loading

ü Protects the contents from weather (containers)

ü They make really cool off airport tiny homes

DELTA AIR LINES, INC.Managing the Human Factor16

We as leaders need to promote ULD safety

Our expectations

ü Support the continued airworthiness of ULDs

ü Enforce proper buildup processes to ensure safe aircraft operations

ü Mandate only airworthy ULDs can be loaded onto an aircraft

ü Ensure aircraft departure procedures comply with all weight and balance requirements

ü Continually manage the human factors and eliminate risk

ü Strive to find new technologies and automation that can remove human errors and contribute to safer aircraft operations

Loading the future

What is the problem today and where are we struggling in the air cargo supply chain?

• Cargo operation hasn´t changed in the last 40years.

• Air freight still not fast enough, think about efficiency, handling charges.

Why we have to change!

• New opportunities due to transforming environment (e-freight/e-commerce; digitalization; Industry 4.0; artificial intelligence)

Page 24: Smart ULD - IATA€¦ · Smart ULD Moderator: Bob Rogers ... Case Study Managing Human Factors at Delta Identify risks Develop sustainable programs Measure performance Hold parties

Loading the future

Our vision and target.

• We would like to address:– Improvement of flexibility.– Efficient and seamless integration into the cargo supply network.– Transparency and speed due to efficient loading of belly capacity leads to customer satisfaction.

We call it “ Loading the future”.

Sea freight Cargo Terminal Rotterdam today

• The port of Rotterdam was a pioneer in the world with Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), and the first with automated terminals.

• Container loading/stacking handled by autonomous robotic cranes and computer controlled AGVs.

Automatization in air cargo transport… how far we are and we will go?

• Robotized ground equipment/ULD build up by robot(s)

• Self driving ground handling vehicles/ autonomous driven vehicles

• Unit Load Device (ULD) contour check prior to loading of aircraft (a/c)

• Sensor network in-/outside a/c• Automatic cargo loading system on a/c• Fast / express/ priority line for cargo (short

ways)• Faster processes & shorter lead times

• Movement of ULD by air cushion actuator.

• New ULD standard should be backward compatible with ULD AKH LD3 45".

• No manual latching of ULDs.

Summary

• Automatization of Cargo loading processensures a safe and proper handling of ULDs in the future.

• Complete transport logistic chain/network.• Aircraft is part of the logistics network.• ULD contour check prior to a/c• Fully automated/securely cargo loading

system on a/c.

• Let´s take the chance to start a commonapproach between all involved actors in the cargo operation chain.

Interactive = (of a computer program or system) interacting with a human user, often in a conversational way, to obtain data or commands and to give immediate results or updated information

The internet of aviation things

• Human beings interrogating material objects, e.g. ULDs

• ULDs communicating with cargo reservation, warehouse operations and/or load & balance systems...

• ULDs communicating with each other as well as other aviation equipment and infrastructure, e.g. tugs, buildings, locations, etc.

• ULDs communicating with the aircraft, e.g. load contents, temperature (for safety reasons and/or product assurance)

• Everything communicating with everyone and everything ... Using the technology we already all have (mobile phones, tablets etc.)

• Proactive alerting regarding all elements of the value propostion (location, temperature, shock, tampering, chain of custody, safety and security ... and much more)

Rapid advances in Information Technology have now reached a stage where we can no longer sit still and wait ...

Why are we doing this?

We believe that everyone benefits when:

• An item is able to track its whereabouts and condition autonomously and passes this information on to a backbone where we can all see it

• The item that is being tracked is what generates the transactional supply chain information not the human being generating the transaction

• Human intervention becomes necessary only when alerts are generated as opposed to having to make sense of masses of data without an immediately obvious context

• We are all CONNECTED!

The value proposition underpinning the Internet of Aviation Things will be different between stakeholders but....

Building a believable business case that creates value to all stakeholders, not just one or some...

Working with regulators and industry bodies to remove impediments, rather than impose them

Sharing the belief that we will get there together only with an equitable commitment

What are your thoughts?

How do you perceive the risks related to Lithium Ion batteries?

Do you expect fire containment to become a standard ULD requirement?

Is it possible to combine low weight, toughness and fire containment?

What would a 60kg, tough, fire resistant AKE be worth?

Traditional Cargo Flows

• B2B structure• Consolidated at starting point• Air cargo part of normal logistic process from Factory to end

user• End user unknown at time of shipment• Easy to palletize• Trade flows are inherently imbalanced, not just seasonal• (relatively) easy to reposition as pallets can be stacked

E-commerce

• B2C elements• End user is known at time of shipment • No standard sized cargo at point of entry• Increased requirement for containers• Substantial Increase in Understocking/ Over

stocking issues• “Another disrupter” – Special events

• How to deal with increased imbalances• A major, global Air Cargo integrator had an overstock of

100+ AMD containers which they had to ship back ONE WAY at USD 1,250 per container

• Sea shipping industry LOST USD 15-20 BILLION• Empty container movements accounted for 15% of all box

movements in the US, 14% in Latin America, 29% in Europe, 16% in the Middle East and 25% in China (source: Loadstar)
