SAFE, RELIABLE AND FLEXIBLE AIRCRAFT RECOVERY WITH ARTS

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the Aircraft Recovery and Transport System (ARTS) developed by Goldhofer, designed to efficiently manage aircraft recovery in emergencies, minimizing financial losses and operational downtime at airports.
Business Case
A case study from 2017 illustrates the financial impact of a runway blockage caused by a damaged aircraft. A small airport with a single runway experienced a 1,000,000 € loss due to a six-hour closure. The ARTS system could have reduced this loss by 600,000 €, demonstrating its cost-effectiveness.
Emergency Response
ARTS is highlighted as a reliable solution for quick and damage-free aircraft recovery. It is developed in collaboration with international recovery specialists and is adaptable to individual airport needs.
ARTS Equipment
The document details various ARTS components, including:
  • NLG/MLG with One Axle: Features wear plates and hydraulic hand pumps for easier recovery.
  • Dolly Systems: Available in 30 t, 50 t, and 100 t capacities, equipped with power packs and remote controls for steering and lifting.
Minor and Major Aircraft Damage
For minor damages like tire failures, ARTS provides quick solutions to prevent runway closures. For major damages, such as collapsed landing gears, ARTS offers professional and premium solutions for both on- and off-tarmac recovery.
Recovery Solutions
ARTS offers:
  • Basic Package: For on-tarmac recovery requiring a towing vehicle.
  • Professional Solution: For on- and off-tarmac recovery with hydraulic suspension and small power packs.
  • Premium Solution: Self-propelled, suitable for narrow- and widebody aircraft, with large power packs for comprehensive recovery.
Customization and Combinations
ARTS systems can be tailored with various modules like wing supports and turntables to handle different aircraft types and damage scenarios, ensuring full risk coverage.
