Just before Christmas, Fraport AG deployed and tested a snow clearing robot from Robot Makers on ILS (instrument landing system) glide paths.
We showcased our machine with latest teach&plan system designed for fully autonomous operation with minimum teachin effort. All you need to define are corner points of geo fence, working area and objects like antenna masts or buildings on site. The machine automatically plans the optimal path for snow clearing.
“The runway system is a highly sensitive area. The goal is to have as
few personnel out there as possible – especially under adverse weather
conditions such as heavy snowfall.” (Simon Pfeifer – Fraport AG)
“The test phase was a great pleasure. We took the opportunity to better understand requirements in this very specific field of application. In recent months we could rapidly integrate many learnings into our tech to complete this step successfully. We are looking forward to make the next steps towards implementation.” (Dr.-Ing. Bernd Helge Leroch – CEO Robot Makers)
