Airtech Innovations

Air Tech Innovations Ltd is a United Kingdom company that designs, builds and installs cargo handling systems for airport cargo and airside areas. It also has a sister company that serves North America.

The company makes and fits material handling equipment. Its work ranges from heavy-duty automated systems to sortation solutions and full turn-key operations, depending on what the customer needs. It works closely with large integrators on many projects, and it also works directly for manufacturers and end users.

Air Tech lists five engineering strengths. It has a full in-house design department. It has mechanical engineering and electrical engineering teams. It handles software, commissioning and management. It also offers service support 24 hours a day, every day of the year. The company draws on experience from several industries, and it designs special software to customer needs. This software allows systems to run automatically and to capture data as current rules require.

Its product range supports the airport cargo handling sector. Items come in standard form or can be made to suit a customer's own operation. Slave pallets let forklift trucks move air cargo. Two-direction models are made for AAC, AKE and PMC pallet types, including a lightweight PMC version, and there is also a four-direction model. Truck dock lifts raise and lower aircraft pallets between road vehicles and cargo system height. They come in 10 foot and 20 foot sizes, and a castor version has a powered roller deck.

Other products include mobile scissor lifts, a dolly dock, powered roller beds, a four-way powered roller bed, and a raiseable powered roller bed. The range also includes a 6,800 kilogram pallet mover, castor decks with powered drives, and build stations in 10 foot and 20 foot lengths.

The company has completed projects for Swissport GB at London Heathrow Airport and at London Stansted Airport. A brochure and product pages describe the range, and buyers can contact the company to discuss a full solution.
