- Load-by-Wire™ (LBW) is an integrated group of synergistic technologies that streamline cargo handling operations by reducing aircraft turnaround time and cargo handling support requirements. LBW technologies focus on autonomous cargo handling by incorporating advanced automation features which:
- Operate with only one loadmaster and no load handling crews
- Rapidly reconfigure the aircraft cargo compartment to efficiently handle various cargo types
- Offload and onload palletized and containerized cargo without the need for material handling equipment (MHE)
