Technical support for vehicles

Coding

To access intermodal transport, vehicles must be certified for rail transport. On behalf of the customer, Hupac codifies  vehicles, ensuring compatibility between vehicles and wagons on the desired traffic route.

 

ILU-Code

Since 2011, a single identification system for intermodal loading units has been in place. Containers, swap bodies and semi-trailers must have an ILU or BIC code to be accepted in unaccompanied combined transport in Europe.

 

The European ILU code is defined in standard EN 13044. It is used to identify non-ILU containers, swap bodies and semi-trailers in combined transport in Europe. The BIC code is a similar identifier defined in ISO 6346, which is primarily intended to identify ISO containers.

 

The ILU code can be requested via www.ilu-code.eu. Our technical service is available for further clarification.

 

Investments in vehicles

If the customer plans to build specific vehicles for combined transport, our technical support service is available to provide technical advice and coordination with the manufacturer.

WOLF for terminals: Chiasso in pole position

THOS, the new terminal process management system based on WOLF, has been launched today. The first to use the new system are the colleagues of the Terminal Chiasso, who carry out all the works with the new software. 

 

The THOS Terminal Hupac Operating System supports employees in the various phases of terminal work:

 

Departure

  • unit delivery to terminal
  • train loading preparation
  • loading closure
  • printing of the waybill
  • train closure
  • train departure.

 

Arrival

  • train arrival
  • availability and unloading of trains
  • unit collection by the customer.

 

The use of WOLF for terminal management is part of the digital renewal process of the Hupac Group. The new system, developed in-house by the IT department in Chiasso, will be gradually extended to all terminals of the Group. 

 

The main innovations

  • access via web from all devices
  • user-friendly design
  • train loading with drag & drop mode
  • display of the composition with wagons and units.
