Container loaders are efficiently adapted to the requirements of airport operations

Along with the continuous development of the air transportation industry, the environment at airports is becoming more and more crowded, and flight schedules are getting tighter and tighter. In the case of busy runways, the TDL-7 platform truck has a high degree of maneuverability and is fully capable of coping with this situation, with the following performance advantages:

- Travel speeds of up to 16 km/h, which significantly reduces the time spent in traveling;

- A turning radius of only 8.2 meters for both the wide-body and aircraft main cargo bay platform trucks;

- The ability to travel on service aisles and non-level surface aprons.

Clause AHM91 of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Airport Operations Manual states:

“Unladen mobile equipment must meet the requirements for starting and traveling on surfaces with a gradient of 5°”.

The CCTC has the ability to start and travel on slopes up to 7°!

“Maintaining a minimal turning radius allows the platform truck to easily dock with an aircraft and be able to travel on the service lanes of the airport.”

The Langfang CIMC TDL-7 wide-body and aircraft main cargo bay type platform trucks have a turning radius of only 8.2 meters and are able to meet the usage requirements for traveling on service lanes.
