ADB SAFEGATE, a leading provider of airport performance solutions, has won a contract with Fraport AG, the operator of Frankfurt International Airport, to modernize its Advanced Visual Docking Guidance Systems (A-VDGS) with its state-of-the-art system Safedock<\/a> X.\u00c2\u00a0 The project includes the replacement of all Safedock T1 systems with 117 Safedock X units, as well as the installation and commissioning of AiPRON Manager<\/a>, an Airside 4.0 platform that ensures future-proof operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With completion scheduled for mid-2026, the project will\ndeliver significant improvements, including improved detection capability in\nlow-visibility conditions, such as fog, heavy rain, or snowfall, thanks to the\naddition of a radar sensor in the Safedock X. The Ramp Information Display\nSystem (RIDS) function of the Safedock X will ensure better situational\nawareness for pilots and ground crew with a larger and more advanced display.\nIntegrated cameras in the new systems will provide a full monitoring of the\nramp activities which to further increase the safety and efficiency of the\nturnaround process while offering blurring capabilities to protect the privacy\nof ramp personnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rainer Baier, Senior Project Manager Airside Systems at\nFraport AG, expressed his enthusiasm about the project, stating, “The\ncontinuous modernization of the flight operating systems at Frankfurt Airport\nis a strategic priority, and the introduction of the Safedock X marks a\nsignificant milestone in our journey. Compared to its predecessor, the Safedock\nT1, this latest generation offers many innovative additions that significantly\nenhance the range of functions available to the airport.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are looking forward to continuing our long-term and\nstrategic partnership with Fraport by incorporating our latest innovative\ntechnologies supporting the digitization of the apron,” said Judith Kruse,\nRegional Sales Manager Apron at ADB SAFEGATE. “Together, we can accelerate\nour shared digital transformation and automation journey while contributing to\nFraport’s growth and sustainability goals.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project marks a significant milestone for ADB SAFEGATE,\nas it is the first Safedock X order and full installation in Europe. ADB\nSAFEGATE has a long-standing history with Fraport, with whom it conducted a\ntest installation of two Safedock X systems last year. The successful\npartnership has resulted in multiple workshops, with the most recent one held\nin February 2024, where we further defined our common roadmap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visitors to ADB SAFEGATE stand D160 in Hall 5.1 during the\nprestigious Passenger Terminal Expo 2024 in Frankfurt from April 16-18 can\nexperience a live demonstration of the Safedock X and AiPRON Manager. In\naddition, Steffen G\u00c3\u00bcnther-Schmitz, Fraport’s Head of Operational Procedures\nAirside, and Peter H\u00c3\u00a5kansson, Director Product Management Apron at ADB\nSAFEGATE, will be speaking on \u2018Airside Innovations at Frankfurt Airport\u2019 during\nday one of the conference, April 16, at 9:05am.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
