Evolution Timeline Introduction Since our invention and patent of the teleplatform on 4th June 1974, CTI Systems has installed more than 250 units worldwide. CTI Systems never stopped investing in innovative technologies and is recognized to be a trendsetter for the deployment of new features to make the product safer, more efficient and more ergonomic to operate. iTP – Our newly launched „intelligent teleplatform“ family results from these continuous efforts and brings the product to an unprecedented level, through smart integration of a number of recently developed digital features....

Overview on Aircraft Distance Control Technologies by CTI Systems Based on line sensors embedded in teleplatform bumpers Block Shape Control Based on aircraft 3D CAD model Ready for tomorrow‘s challenges Twin Scan Control Based on full 3D aircraft scan Dynamic Path Planning Robotisation Touchless Bumper Intersection detection between teleplatform & aircraft Aircraft proximity detection

Aircraft Distance Control Technologies Touchless Bumpers The Touchless Bumper is a more advanced version of the traditionally used sensor based peripheral bumper. The new bumpers allows to trigger the low speed motion at a distance from the aircraft outer shell without getting in contact with the aircraft skin. Detection zone of surrounding objects Moving with care ... Block Shape Control CTI Systems firstly introduced the concept of the Block Shape Control In 2014. This software based feature consists of an automatic limitation of the motion speed of a teleplatform when entering the...

Twin Scan Control In 2020, CTI Systems successfully completed the development of its Twin Scan Control technology, allowing for highest precision in approaching the aircraft. This system is based on a full scan of the aircraft and does not only automatically limit the motion speed of the teleplatform, but also brings the equipment to a full stop at a pre-set distance, thus avoiding to touch the aircraft shell. This technology has been deployed to a first hangar in Europe, to the full satisfaction of the operators.

Dynamic Path Planning As an extension module of the Twin Scan Control technology, CTI Systems currently develops a Dynamic Path Planning (DPP) software able to reproduce trajectories commonly used by the teleplatform during paint process. It controls dynamically, in an automated manner, motion sequences for teleplatforms following the contour shape of the aircraft. Robotisation As an extension module of the DPP technology, robots embedded on intelligent teleplatforms mark the breakthrough to achieve a fully automated aircraft painting process, with the potential to revolutionise the...
