electric standard belt loader, expanding the
company's line of belt loading equipment

put together is certainly class-leading

issues - including costly aircraft
repairs and flight delays.

job easier and more efficient, "

others in the GSE industry to enhance
the SkyBelt. For example, the SkyBelt
utilizes Flux Power lithium-ion 80-volt
batteries, provided by Averest.

expertise and experience, gave us
peace of mind and confidence that the
battery side of the project wouldn't be
an issue and let us focus on all other
aspects, " Griffith says.

data is powered by Adveez, in addition
to the on-board diagnostics screen.
" During the testing phase, the
Adveez technology proved to be very
beneficial in recording operational
data and proving performance, "
Griffith says.
Production of the SkyBelt began
in mid-2023, and more than 200
units were built and supplied in the
first 12 months.
