Special Purpose Systems

Individual solutions for our customers

Collaboration makes us strong. We deliver high-tech know-how and technical expertise for the design and construction of individual special systems. For the flexible transport of heavy loads such as aircraft fuselages, small flying machines such as helicopters or other heavy constructions that need to be transported over a long distance, we will find solutions to your challenge. From the initial idea to the finished product, Broetje-Automation competently accompanies you every step of the way.

Cargo Loader

The Cargoloader is a heavy-duty machine. This high-tech solution was specially developed for large components and heavy loads. So that the components can be transported safely and easily to their destination. Thanks to optical systems, the load is transferred to the cargo aircraft without any contact between the loader and the aircraft. With the help of the integrated conveyor system, loading is easy and uncomplicated despite bulky components.

Easy sensory loading and unloading of large components.

Mobile Platforms

Platforms are useful for different applications. Since customer requirements vary from a wide range of use-cases, we are committed to developing the appropriate systems each time. With this multi-functional platform, technical maintenance and weather protected shelter are possible for smaller aerical vehicles like helicopters and drones. The four drive units ensure a safe transport even with a small radius of movement, so that uneven terrain and slight inclines are no obstacle.

* This is an example and may not be fitting for your individual requirements. Get in contact and find the right solution for you.
