Product Resource:
First PC-Based Weight Indicator
Tracer® AVi, by Rice Lake Weighing Systems, frees up check-in agent work space and allows critical weight data to be integrated in real-time. Residing on a PC, the Tracer AVi program looks and acts like a traditional weight indicator, but only maximizes on the screen when a weight threshold, such as 50 pounds, is exceeded. This alerts agents to overweight bags, and prompts them to satisfy the situation by collecting a fee or reducing the weight of the bag.
Engineered Precision Towing Equipment
Lynco Tugger’s Hydra-Tug’s maneuverability is more advanced than conventional tow tractors. The tractor features a zero degree turning radius and a clear view of the tow hitch at all times. Operators can maneuver through the tightest spots with ease. Because the unit is hydraulically driven it can prevent safety accidents due to operator panic. If a driver lets go of the levers of the tow tractor it will stop abruptly.
TOWBARLESS TRACTOR
The Douglas Kalmar TBL600 towbarless aircraft tractor is now formally approved by Airbus for pushback, inter-gate and higher speed maintenance towing operations with the Airbus A380/A380F aircraft.
Towable Utility Gate
