TowFLEXX – Innovative Towing Vehicles

TowFLEXX is a manufacturer of Electric Towbarless Aircraft Tugs ‘Made in Germany’ Our tugs cover a huge range of aircraft, from small single piston and turboprops up to to 86-ton business jets. The larger tugs are towbarless and remote controlled. A unique 360° turntable increases safety enormously and gives TowFLEXX the undisputed unique selling point.

360° technology with patent pending

With TowFLEXX the previously mentioned issues are history. The remote controlled aircraft tugs (from TF3) are equipped with a unique turntable, which allows the aircraft tug to be rotated 360° around the nose landing gear, while the nose wheel remains straight at all times. This is not only unique, but innovative, safer and also profitable for the user!

Turn the Aircraft on the Spot

Towing an aircraft with a conventional tug requires a lot of space. In addition, every movement must be carefully considered in order to avoid major damage. To be able to turn the nose landing gear, the aircraft must be moved back and forth. Furthermore, utmost caution is required to prevent the sensitive nose landing gear from overturning and damage during maneuvering.

From personal Needs into the whole World

Long before TowFLEXX was founded, there was a desire to get the aircraft out of the hangar with less effort. In the beginning this was just an idea for own needs, but within a short time this idea gained a lot of attention. The “Schleppmaxxe” label was then launched and the first tow tugs were produced in small series.

More Space means more Revenue

The remote-controlled aircraft tugs are extremely maneuverable and flexible thanks to their 360° technology. This gives the user the possibility to use the entire space in the hangar, because literally no room is needed to manoeuvre the tug. This means that more aircraft can be accommodated in the same space, generating up to 40% more revenue.

Significant Cost Reduction

In addition to increased income, costs can be saved at the same time. Why you can save money with TowFLEXX? Very simple: first of all, only one person is needed to control the flexible aircraft tugs, which saves personnel costs. Furthermore, damage to the nose wheel is avoided because there is no tow bar. The nose wheel is captured on a freely rotating turntable which prevents it from oversteering.

Our battery charger had damage to the pin. I called TowFLEXX, was consulted very friendly and competent, went there the same day and the damage was repaired in 5 min. Costs: A nfriendly “Thank you” That’s what I call customer relations in the very best and positive sense.

Google Review

I was looking for a modern, flexible and reliable towing system for towing our new PC-12 NGX, based in the EU (Italy). Of course, I found many offers in the US market, but I was looking for an EU product and finally found the company TowFlexx. I was surprised to find a great fit for our needs, even more than expected. Our choice was for the TF3 system. It is fantastic to be able to have at your disposal, with a single device:

Towing system
360° turntable (no stress for nose gear)
GPU

Last but not least, the operations can be carried out easily and quickly by a single operator. Quick and easy commercial communication and delivery

We bought two TF3 one for a PC12 ans one for a Citation M2, it’s the best tug for those aircraft. One of the towflexx didn’t work very well. So the after-sales department sent a technician to France in less than a week to solve the problem. Many thanks to towflexx’s team.
