A long lasting Teamwork
 2007:
 2009:
LEOS and IAI partnership began
former LEOS tow tractor converted as first TaxiBot demonstrator
 2010/11:
Operational test at FRA with DLH B747-400
 2011:
TaxiBot received Interairport InnovationAward
 2012:
IAI and created formal contractual settings with partnersAirbus,
TLD, LEOS and first prototypes were tested at chateroux
 2013:
Beta-Operation with 3 narrow-body TaxiBot and B737 in Frankfurt
Prototype
Demonstrator

TaxiBot
System descripton
Pilot in Command
 Steering with aircraft Nose Landing Gear
 Braking with aircraft Main Landing Gear
Equivalent processing time
 Push back by TaxiBot truck driver
 Pilot takes TaxiBot (TB) control to drive to the uncoupling area
 TB driver uncouples aircraft and is repositioning TB for next event
 Aircraft engine warm up
Basic operative and economic benefits
 Savings of kerosin, emissions, foreign object damages
 Savings of push back cost and increase gate utilization
 Continous and standardized movements of airplanes on ground

Steering and acceleration
Steering from the cockpit with
“Tiller”
 NLG movements create signals and
control TB steering system
 Same feel and touch as without TB

Acceleration principle as automatic
drive
 Minor forward suspension when
brakes set
 Acceleration after aircraft brake
release
 Speed adaption by pilot braking or TB
 Platform puffers load changes

TaxiBot
Limited Nose Landing Gear loads during dispatch towing
The Main Landing Gear braking system
is used to stop the airplane momentum.
The towing TaxiBot is not braking the airplane momentum only its own
vehicle mass. Energy absorption mechanism is damping braking energy,
while the vehicle is adapting its speed to the airplane braking.

TaxiBot
TaxiBot will move the industry a quantum leap forward
 „Dispatch Towing with TaxiBot will become the most important airport
ground operations innovation of the 21th century“
 Technology
 Economy
 Environmental protection
 The TaxiBot implementation will be primarily driven by 3 factors
 Airlines and airports willingness to establish frame conditions
 Apron specific dimensions and traffic load
 On site capability of reliabel technical and operational support
 TaxiBot creates opportunities for new business concepts
 New and additional work package including push back
 Share of risc and opportunities of high capital expenditures
 Necessity of cooperation along an optimized process
