This is one of the priorities of innovation management in transportation in this term. Thus, the level of comprehensive mechanization of loading and unloading for transport of packaged general cargo at the present time does not exceed 25 - 30%. In these studies employed 70 to 75% of all the workers who perform the loading and unloading operations in the economy.

For mechanization of loading and unloading of bulk cargo in transit to: increase the scope of continuous specialized vehicles to complete fitting out of industrial complexes fronts special automated systems, greater use of specialized rolling stock.

For the purpose of mechanization and automation of loading and unloading operations should provide the following innovations:

optimize the concentration of cargo operations on a smaller number of items equipped complex machines;

dramatically increase the use of rolling stock adapted to high loading and unloading of goods, increase the volume of freight in containers and bags;

improve facilities and warehousing technology;

create new high-performance machines, equipment and systems of machines and mechanisms for loading and unloading;

automate management processes complexes handling machines.
