The INVECPRO project has a dual objective: on the one hand, the design of an autonomous airport tractor vehicle that is 100% electric with an extended hydrogen (H₂) range, representing the first prototype of a new generation of high value-added ground support equipment (GSE). This airport towing tractor is capable of combining advanced electrification, operational autonomy, and autonomous driving, meeting the stringent functional, regulatory, and safety requirements of the aerospace environment.
On the other hand, the project also undertakes the digitalization of the production process through the development of a production planner supported by a digital twin, with time tracking to plan and simulate manufacturing tasks.
For both developments, the project has been financed by the PERTE VEC program.
