Project Description: Aircraft Docking System

Industry: Transportation-Aviation

Application: This docking system provides  full coverage to the horizontal stabilizer of the aircraft. The specialized cantilevered design minimizes overall footprint.

Features:

• Crown face high capacity wheels
• Rubber bumper material at potential contact points
• 2,000 lb capacity pendant operated jib crane
• 12 person capacity (6 person per level)
• 50° forward descent staircases on each half
  

Project Description: Full Aircraft Docking System

Industry: Transportation-Aviation

Application: Docking system for complete airframe allows full access to elevated areas of the aircraft. Workers can walk  the entire perimeter without having to travel up and down the stairs.

Features:

• Screw jacks to lock platform in place during use
• Rubber bumper material at potential contact points
• 12 person capacity  (6 person per level)
• Traction tread walking/working surfaces
• Descent staircases at multiple access points
  

Project Description: Jet Wing Docks

Industry: Transportation-Aviation

Application: Provide safety to U.S. Air Force personnel during sand-blasting operations on aircraft. Individual platforms encapsulate the wing area and can be handled separately, or linked together when in use.

Features:

• Floor locks for added stability
• Removable 42" guardrails
• Diamond tread walking surfaces
• Manual height adjustment via forklift or multiple people
• Protective bumpers along inside of platforms
  

Project Description: Helicopter Access Stand

Industry: Transportation-Aviation

Application: Designed for gaining access to the helicopter airframe in hangar environments. Incorporates swinging fall protection railing to guard areas of the aircraft that can be walked on, and includes relief cut-outs on the platform to accept parts that extend from the aircraft.

Features:

• 50° forward descent ladders for access to platform
• Full bumper on contact points with aircraft
• Pneumatic flip doors accept engine cowling when open
• Adjustable height railings eliminate contact with rotor during positioning
