TLDs Valentin Schmitt & Yves Crespel recently participated in a special live recording from the 24th Ground Handling International Annual Conference held in Lisbon.

The panel discussed a number of key industry topics including:

•The evolution and future design of GSE: A look at how equipment design, power sources, and technology might change in the coming years.

•Sustainable power sources and electrification: Insights into the role of electric, hybrid, and hydrogen power in GSE.

•Autonomous vehicles in ground operations: Exploring the potential and challenges of implementing autonomous technology in GSE.

Leading the way forward in autonomous driverless airport vehicles, the partnership between EasyMile and Alvest Group Companies, TLD & Smart Airport Systems, has continued to prove itself within the aviation industry.

The EZTow driverless baggage tractor has now achieved Level 4 autonomous driving meaning it has completely removed the requirement for any human interaction on-board.

TractEasy is an autonomous electric tractor concept created by TLD and EasyMile that has become the standard for zero-emission solutions covering a wide range of applications, from airport baggage handling to parts supply to assembly lines.

Richard Reno, CEO of TractEasy articulates his thoughts about how autonomous vehicles can drive change in aviation.

In airports, the efficient handling of baggage and cargo has become a critical challenge, exacerbated by a labour shortage.

While industries like manufacturing have adopted autonomous indoor vehicles for years, airports have been slower to embrace such technology and safety standards. However, some pioneering airports and airlines have successfully demonstrated level 4 autonomous cargo and baggage transportation operations.

With advancements in technology and a growing understanding of operational challenges, autonomous tow tractors are poised to improve safety, and efficiency, and reduce operating costs at airports worldwide.

The debate on safety standards for autonomous vehicles in airports is ongoing, with some exploring lower safety tolerance solutions, but the most significant success stories prioritize the highest levels of safety.
