Gate Pushback System
Aircraft Towing Systems World Wide LLC
Hability to push back aircraft from the gate without using a tug or toe bar.
SOFTWARE
Aircraft Towing Systems World Wide LLC
ATS has a fully integrated software system that eliminates most human touch points and errors. The system software completely orchestrates all aircraft movements from the taxiway to the airport gate and back to the runway. The ATS software suite is planned to integrate with the existing airport traffic control system software and is envisioned to be operated by the ground control personnel.
PULLCAR/TOW DOLLY
Aircraft Towing Systems World Wide LLC
The pullcar/tow dolly transports the aircraft from the runway to an airport gate and back to the runway via the ramp and taxiway. The pullcar is an electro-hydraulic powered unit, utilizing an electric car engine and hydraulic motors to move the tow dolly/pullcar and aircraft along the monorail track in an underground channel. The tow dolly is connected to the pullcar and is sized to handle aircraft from an A380/747 type aircraft to regional jets with a single unit. After driving an aircraft onto the tow dolly, the nose landing gear is automatically secured in place, and no additional actions are required by the pilot. The pilot can always overpower the system with the use of throttles or brakes in case of an emergency.
Point to Point Ferry System
Aircraft Towing Systems World Wide LLC
The hability to take an aircraft from one point to another. An example: from the terminal to the maintance hanger.
About
Aircraft Towing Systems (ATS) World Wide LLC created an innovative alternative to traditional aircraft tugging and taxiing methods. The system is designed to transport aircraft from the runway via the taxiway to the airport gates and back to the runway without the use of the main jet engines. The ATS system is fully automatic, utilizing an electric-hydraulic powered pullcar/tow dolly that rides on a monorail in a below-ground channel. The benefits of this green and sustainable system are substantial fuel savings, reduced emissions, improved air quality, safer taxiing operations by reducing collisions, decreased noise, reduced jet engine damage caused by FOD, higher airport throughput increasing capacity without adding gates, and extended aircraft engine and component life with less stress on airframes.
ATS is comprised of three sub-systems, the taxiway channel, pullcars/tow dollies and software.
