Autonomous Cargo
Partners: Aurrigo (Lead), UPS.
UPS and Aurrigo have announced a collaborative project, to develop and deploy Auto-Cargo, an autonomous electric vehicle designed to move heavy cargo loads to and from an aircraft at the UPS hub at East Midlands Airport, the UK’s second-largest cargo terminal.
The vehicle, known as Auto-Cargo can transport a standard full-size cargo pallet or two half-size aviation industry standard containers or Unit Load Devices (ULD) up to a total load of 7.5 tonnes and is designed to tow a further fully loaded cargo trailer behind it.
The fully electric, autonomous technology will enable the limited numbers of security-cleared drivers to be freed-up to perform other roles around the airport, while also producing zero tail pipe emissions.
