TMT 13500, operating mode

ATC FACILITIES

Turnkey TWIST systems
Fixed ATC towers and control cabin : standard and tailor-made TWIST fixed ATC towers and control cabin are modular and turnkey ATC systems perfectly suited to meet the needs of medium-sized airports and airstrips.

Mobile ATC tower
A mobile ATC tower is the suitable solution for airport backup and emergency operations in both military and civil sectors. Thanks to such a system, air navigation safety may be rapidly set up on any type of sites: temporary operations on remote located, underequipped or temporary runway or temporary ATC facility shared by several airports to ensure ATC services, Relief operations (natural disaster, forest fire,…) or temporary ATC tower on big events (sportive meetings, aeronautic shows), ATC back-up on airport where the main tower is damaged or tactical operations (rapid relocation of the TMT 13500).

Constantly looking for innovations, TWIST designed the TMT 13500 in order to increase performances of a mobile system and improve its flexibility and comfort: elevation height, autonomy, ability to be transported.

Gathering unequaled technical features, the TMT 13500 is an advanced solution on this market.
> Height ajustable up to 13,8 meters
The TMT 13500 provides an operational height up to 13 meters for the controllers settled down in the control cabin. This characteristic extends the application scope of a mobile system, until now limited to 7 meters high.

TMT 13500, transport mode

> transportable by air, road and sea
Designed to provide a minimal size in the transport mode, the TMT 13500 when folded down is 40 feet. Suited for haulage, it is towed by a single standard vehicle. The TMT 13500 is transportable by air in a Hercules C130 and is transportable by shipping (flat 40 feet).
> completely autonomous and self-contained
The TMT 13500 is a one and only system equipped with its own power supply. It does not require any further lift equipment and is fitted with a scissor platform of access to the control cabin.
> rapid and flexible deployment
Tower deployment is realized in less than 2 hours by 2 people. After an operation, the transport mode is recovered in less than 1 hour.
> high performance equipment
All equipment required to provide ATC services, selected among the most competitive, are set in the control cabin. Designed for controller’s comfort, the control cabin may accomodate up to three operators.
