Aviation Ground Support Application Scenarios

In aircraft apron operations, the application of lifting functions spans the entire lifecycle of the aircraft:

Daily maintenance tasks Challenges Facing Aviation Ground Equipment
  • Landing Gear Maintenance Lift: Offers millimeter-precise positioning for landing gear inspections, ensuring compliance with the ground clearance requirements of various aircraft models.
  • Engine Maintenance Platform: Capable of supporting 5-ton-class aircraft engine disassembly and assembly equipment, while maintaining stable lifting and lowering even in environments with intense electromagnetic interference.
  • Body Surface Inspection: Provides the inspection robot with an adjustable working platform that can cover areas at varying heights, such as wings and tail surfaces.
  • The challenge of maintaining precision: Traditional systems may experience a degradation in positioning accuracy after a certain number of cycles under heavy loads, making it impossible to meet the demands of precision assembly.
  • Response speed bottleneck: It takes an average of considerable time—from receiving the command to completing localization—making it difficult to meet the demand for rapid station transitions.
  • Life-cycle cost: High average annual maintenance costs, with frequent seal replacements required.
