Advance. Elevate. Innovate.

Building on more than five decades of experience, ADELTE delivers innovative, made-to-measure and high quality

Passenger Boarding Bridges with two or three sections, a hydraulic or electromechanical elevation system, glass or

steel tunnels and an increasing or decreasing telescope extension. Our complete line ranges from Apron Drives and

Nose Loaders to T-Bridges and Commuter Bridges. They can service all commercial aircrafts, from the largest A380

to smaller jets, and cater for all terminals and apron-specific configuration needs.

Superior product quality and reliability

Our Passenger Boarding Bridges offer a stronger and more

lightweight structure made of high quality steel undergone a

category C5-M paint process specifically for the marine

environment which ensures the best protection against corrosion.

All materials are tested and the manufacturing process is certified

in order to guarantee excellent durability.

A380 APRON DRIVE. Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport, Abidjan, Ivory Coast

Low operating costs

Elevation and travel systems are designed and engineered to

offer maximum energy efficiency. The Passenger Boarding

Bridge structure is able to receive Ground Support Equipment

such as PCAs and GPUs which deliver pre-conditioned air and

electricity to the stationed aircraft, dramatically reducing energy

consumption.

Fast, precise and secure docking manoeuvers

ADELTE’s Passenger Boarding Bridges are equipped with the

latest Cabin and PLC technologies and offer a complete and

reliable safety system. Multiple sensors, point-and-go

technology and our fully automated docking system make

docking operations simple and successful, preventing any risk

for the aircraft or operator on the apron.

Tailor-made to Clients’ needs

Our engineers will design and deliver a Boarding Bridge

manufactured to your specific needs, choosing the right size

configuration, the drive system, the elevation type, the most

efficient air conditioning system and other design features.

Direct-access maintenance design

Maintenance is a key factor for keeping boarding bridges in

optimum operating condition and improving their lifespan. Thanks

to our unique direct-access design, all major components can be

reached easily to allow maintenance tasks to be carried out quickly.

Outstanding safety and comfort for passengers

Design and a successful technical conception are vital,

incorporating aspects such as innovative use of natural lighting,

significant thermal and acoustic insulation, non-slip flooring,

efficient air-conditioning solutions and comfortable gradient, all

of which make a qualitative difference to a passenger’s

perception of the service provided by an airport or airline.

Key Features

Cutting-edge Passenger Boarding BridgesADELTE’s unique designs and technologies guarantee optimal performance on the apron

1. ROOFTOP

Designed to perfectly meet the

thermal needs inside the PBB in

all climate conditions. It is

equipped with internal air

ducting system to distribute the

conditioned air throughout the

PBB.

3. ELEVATION SYSTEM

Electromechanical or hydraulic

systems are available as

standard. Both are equipped

with a redundant safety system

that ensures the alignment of

the lifting columns at all times

without the need for electrical

detectors.

4. TRACTION SYSTEM

This consists of a solid double

wheel that is highly resistance to

wear, independently controlled

by a few variators through the

PLC. The advanced design of the

bogie allows instant access to

any part of the traction system

that requires maintenance.

2. TELESCOPIC TUNNELS

The structure, made from high

quality steel, has undergone a

category C5-M paint process

specifically for the marine

environment, the same as that

used on oil rigs.

8. CONTROL DESK

The PBBs are controlled by a

state-of-the-art PLC designed for

industrial use. Possibility of

remote access via WEB Access to

monitor the current state of the

PBB, to carry out software

upgrades, and to provide a

technical or support service to

maintenance staff.

7. SERVICE STAIRS

Stairs with a robust design made

from high-quality steel with

slip-resistant, self-levelling steps

to avoid any risk of the handling

operators falling.

6. ROTUNDA

The roomy and bright inner

space improves passenger

comfort and flow. The specific

design of the blinds, with

prestressed springs and without

the need for a roller shutter

chain eliminates noise during

rotation and avoids the need for

maintenance.

5. CABIN

The inside of the cabin is

spacious and bright to improve

the experience of the

passengers and to facilitate the

driving of the boarding bridge.
