Conventional Aircraft Tractors
TLD have over 60 years experience in designing and manufacturing pushback tractors. Their conventional pushback tractors provide exceptionally high-performance whilst maintaining reliability and ease of operations. TLD tractors also contain an extensive range of safety features.
TMX-50
Regional Pushback Tractor
The TLD TMX-50 regional pushback tractor has been skilfully designed to push and tow a large range of air vehicles from helicopters to any private, business, regional and single-aisle aircraft. These include B737 NG3/MAX and A321. Military aircraft operations are also planned and will include the necessary anchoring points and accessibility on the main military transport ramps.
The compact design of this regional pushback tractor, with 4 wheel drive and 4 steering wheels creates exceptional manoeuvrability and traction for easy positioning in hangars and repositioning in all climatic conditions. It also integrates a new control station that comfortably fits up to 3 people and offers an optional panoramic windshield to provide a direct view on hitches for optimal use and improved safety.
Similar to other TLD tractors in the same power range, the TMX-50 has a simple design with proven and validated components. This helps to provide excellent reliability and operational availability. The maintenance is also optimised for fast and direct access to components to help reduce preventive maintenance time and costs.
It is available in a number of varieties: 4.5 tons, 6 tons and 7.8 tons which allows for a drawbar pull up to 63 kN. US EPA Tier 3/EU stage 3A and US EPA T4F/EU stage 3B engines are available in 36kW or 55kW.
