ports are planning to purchase new equipment, and identifies any planned changes to existing airside methods. Having opened a new fourth runway in Oc- tober, the Frankfurt Airport submission states: “This year we ordered and received a new Clear- ing Convoy consisting of 14 vehicles to service our new runway.” Meanwhile, London Gatwick received three Rosenbauer Panther fire appli- ances in 2011, with an additional three to be delivered in 2013. While the majority of respondents have no im- mediate plans to make changes to their exist- ing methods, a handful of airports do have such plans. At Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, “we started a more selective spraying method more based on runway usage. Plus we are adjusting the spraying vehicles so they use less KAC and this has already led to a reduction of 200,000 litres of KAC.” The airport also has plans to purchase a new runway rotechnics (crackers), shotguns and dogs”, while Friction Testing sprayer “with more accurate dosing and less us- “lasers are being considered”.

Its areas of operation encompass road maintenance and airport equip- ment for summer and winter. The company‘s history boasts numerous pio- neering achievements, which is also reflected in the fact that the family firm holds a large number of patents in Austria and abroad. The company is keen to take up new challenges and to develop and implement practically oriented concepts. The main focus of production is snow clearing equipment for roads and specialised clearing equipment and jetways for airports. The production programme ranges from ve- hicle hydraulics over multi-purpose side snow ploughs, antifriction snow ploughs, snow cutters, snow blowers, combination snow blowers and custom-built solutions to jetways. EN ISO 9001 certification in 1995 is proof of achieving the ultimate goal of implementing the “zero defect” philosophy. More than 300 ap- prentices have been trained since the company was founded, and in 2000 this resulted in being awarded the title of “Excellent Company Offering Apprenticeship Training”. Customer focus has al- ways been a central company concern. Kahlbacher‘s real showpieces are the high- speed combined snow blowers for use at airports with clearing speeds of up to 40 km/h. Now all Austrian airports have been equipped with these high-tech combined snow blowers. With a capacity in excess of 1400 HP, these snow clearing machines have been designed in line with the exacting demands of international airports. The final element completing the company concept is the in-house customer service depart- ment, which provides customer-centred after- sales service and repairs.

Dynatest 6875 RFT Over the many years that the Mu-Meter has been in production, over 1,000 units have been sold Testing in Operational worldwide. (Winter) Conditions

The Dynatest 6875 Runway Friction Tester (RFT) is designed for both functional (main- tenance) and operational testing to evaluate surface friction changes. Operational friction testing can be performed during such adverse weather as heavy rain, ice, slush or snow with data reporting in both metric and US units. The 6875 meets all of the FAA and ICAO specifica- tions for friction measuring devices (CFME). The RFT includes the industry’s largest 1,000-litre (250 U.S. gallon) built in, alu- minium, baffled water tank, positive displace- ment water pump and ASTM laminar flow water nozzle for self wetting testing of up to 11,000m+ (36,000ft.+) of runway without refilling. Larger water tank sizes are available on request. For airports in winter environ- ments, the RFT comes with four-wheel drive. The test gear in the RFT does not require changing the vehicle manufacturer’s axles and preserves the factory warranty. Customers choose the Dynatest 6875 RFT for several reasons, intuitive and easy to use, highly reliable, always available and the high- est levels of support.

JCB equipment is a hit with airports

Two consecutive tough winters, with more than 125mm of snowfall in just over an hour last De- cember at Heathrow, have made airport opera- tors across the UK determined to be ready for any wintery conditions this year. To meet the needs of these operators, JCB of- fers a wide range of machinery to deal with the worst of the winter weather, as well as providing year-round help with numerous other tasks. Telescopic handlers, backhoe loaders and wheeled loaders are all capable of loading snow, digging and general loading duties. BAA Edin- burgh runs its own telehandler for operations throughout the year, and hires in wheeled exca- vators and backhoes as the situation demands. The unique JCB Fastrac is proving invaluable at an increasing number of airports. It features a comfortable two-man cab, full suspension, powerful all-wheel drive, travel speeds of up to 80kph and truck standard ABS braking. Able to power multiple attachments, it is a master of many tasks – from pushing a snow plough and running a sweeper, towing a snow blower, pow- ering de-icing equipment or mowing the grass, verges and hedges in the summer. “The Fastracs have been fantastic, they’ve re- peatedly done everything we’ve asked of them,” The JCB Fastrac features a comfortable two-man cab, full suspension, powerful all-wheel drive, travel said Gary Clark, transport manager at London speeds of up to 80kph and truck standard ABS braking.
