“…Placing the platforms on a railway wagon creates a trolley handling surface that allows devices to handle along the ramp, railcar and container in the logistics chain. The "ramp-ramp" delivery system of goods is created [4,5]. The platforms can be easily loaded and secured by means of corner fixing elements on a railway carriage, or can be removed and folded into a deck in the combined transport terminal.…”

The article deals with the transfer of freight from road freight to railway freight transport. In railway transport, individual wagons or groups of wagons with a maximum number of five are used. Combined transport is used for commodity flows. Goods are loaded in ISO 1 containers with an outer length of 20 or 40 feet. Special ramps allow goods to be transported from the ramp to the container and vice versa. The system can be used for storage device, distribution and logistics centres with railway connections to public railway transport.

A high-quality infrastructure and technical base is a vital factor in the development of intermodal transport in transport systems. Intermodal transport terminals are the most important component of a combined transport infrastructure, providing an essential connection between different modes of transport. This article deals with the issue of where to locate intermodal transport terminals within a transport network. In reality, this decision comes down to the potential of a particular location (e.g., an industrial park) and the critical role of private investors. These are mostly subjective factors, whereby little or no consideration is given to objective criteria. Within this context, it is extremely important that decisions are taken with regards to the development and construction of public networks, and economically neutral intermodal transport terminals by independent subjects are based on a non-discriminatory approach. In other words, it is essential that such terminals are built in places that comply with the stated priorities of the transport policy of a specific state. In this article, the author puts forward a method for determining the location of terminals that are based on the optimisation of several influential factors. The specified methodology is applied to a case study in Slovakia. The theoretical part of the article deals with the nature of the method to be applied. The discussion part involves a case study concerning the (potential) location of intermodal transport terminals in the Slovak Republic.

“…Nowadays, AGV systems play an increasingly important role in the handling of sea containers [15]. Compared to conventional AGV systems that are used in various types of logistics processes, those driven at the maritime reloading sites are primarily powered by diesel engines [16]. In addition, their operation requires other factors to be taken into account, that are not accounted for in conventional AGV systems.…”

AGV systems, gradually making their way into individual logistics processes, represent an important tool for handling different types of cargo. Since their initial start in the domain of small handling units, their use has been incrementally finding its application in the area of large handling units, too, such as different types of containers. That is why an ever increasing number of them can be encountered at the range of land and sea reloading sites. Thus, there are many opportunities for them to be deployed in different types of logistics processes at maritime reloading sites. For the AGV system and the logistics processes to function correctly at each maritime reloading site, they need to be thoroughly fine-tuned. One of the methods that can be used effectively to that end is the method of computer simulation. The paper will describe how to create a simple simulation model using Tecnomatix Plant Simulation.
