Cargo-Measurement Database on Transport Conditions: Mr.CES

You can use this service to read from our Internet website the past typical data on temperature and shock measured inside containers during transportation. The data has been accumulated since 1987.
The database is useful in collecting information for preliminary research for new shipping or improvements in packing.

Summary

This is a service answer to queries concerning container-transportation environments such as "How high does the temperature inside containers rise during transportation?" and "How strong is the shock that occurs in containers?"
This database has been continually built up since 1987. We provide the most typical data from the database.

Features

• The search results are displayed as a list of items you have retrieved. Each item can be displayed as a chronological graph of the measurement data. The graph can be downloaded as an image file.

Comments from users

• We are currently developing shock-sensitive products. Because we can obtain information in advance on the degree of shock that occurs en route to our products that are to be transported, the database service helps us greatly to perform experiments simulating the environments the cargo might experience during actual transportation.
• We are designing cargo packing. Because the database can be displayed in the form of a graph for each cargo movement, such as warehousing, container yard, and marine transportation, we can find transport locations with bad environmental conditions at a glance. The valuable data helps us to study preventive measures against cargo damage in advance.

Notice

• We recommend Internet Explorer 4.0 and Netscape 4.0 and their later versions. Customers must provide their own connection to the Internet.
• The operation may be affected by the speed of the Internet connection.

FAQ

Q: What does the CES of Mr.CES mean?

A: This is an acronym for Cargo Environment-measuring Service.

Q: We are looking for humidity data.

A: The humidity inside containers is affected by changes in parameters such as the water content of the cargo and packing materials, whether pallets are used or not, external air temperature, and the amount of insolation, in addition to conditions such as the stowage position of the cargo in a ship, the storage location and duration at a CY, the color of the container, the amount of clearance inside the container, etc. Although the database includes humidity data, we decline to provide humidity data because the data might be erroneously interpreted unless the customer uses data that includes measurements of all these parameters.
