In order to develop a better system, the loading of road- and rail-vehicles
with kaoline and vermiculite at the VH-terminal has been analysed. Firstly a
supporting model has been created, with which the capacity of gantry-cranes can
be determined, depending on a few principal variables. The use of crane-capacity
is an important factor concerning the interaction of handling processes.
Criteria for the extension of facilities for closed storage as well as the
location of new facilities are determined. It turnes out that the assignation
of goods to the different facilities is strongly determined by the proposed
loading-system.
