Passenger Boarding Bridges
Fit-to-purpose customization
Passenger boarding bridges are a central feature of modern airports. They’re also a passenger’s first and last point of airport contact. We work with airport operators worldwide to ensure passengers enjoy a stress-free and safer boarding and arrivals experience.
From Noseloaders for high precision in small spaces and Apron Drive bridges for maximum flexibility to versatile Bridge Links and convenient Sliding T Bridges, we carefully customize each bridge to fit your airport’s unique environment. For smaller airports, our solutions enable passengers to board directly from the ground-level terminal. For A-380 gates, our flexible bridges service not only both decks of the A380 but the whole range of aircrafts. The result? Considerably shorter boarding times and reduced congestion.
Ground Support Equipment
We help you get it right. On the ground.
In times of growing air traffic worldwide, reliable ground support equipment like the preconditioned airflow system (PCA) or ground power (400Hz) and potable water units are essential to improving aircraft service operations, as well as avoiding tarmac delays and disgruntled airlines and passengers. Our vast experience in integrating this equipment in any configuration required helps you get it right on the ground so that aircraft can get in the air, fast.
Intelligent Gate Systems
Optimizing gate efficiency
Ground operation incidents currently cost the aviation industry up to US$4 billion every year. Our intelligent gate systems help major airports around the world avoid this expense by boosting their gates’ efficiency.
Solutions like our integrated gate management airport system enable monitoring of integrated equipment at the gate, including ground power units (400Hz), advanced visual docking guidance systems (A-VDGS), preconditioned air, surveillance cameras, automatic doors and more.
Our A-VDGS is the only one that delivers 100% accurate aircraft identification, resulting in increased gate safety, decreased turnaround times and reduced environmental impact. To find out more, write to us at vdgs.tkas@tkelevator.com.
These intelligent solutions simplify formerly time- and labor-consuming tasks, reduce human error and deliver a smoother passenger experience, besides improving aircraft turnaround times at the gate.
