Loader for the Dreamlifter Large Cargo Freighter
On June 12, 2006 Boeing unveiled the first cargo loader to be used to transport large 787 Dreamliner assemblies. The loader, the longest in the world at 118 ft., 1 inch, was designed and built by TLD at its facility in Sherbrooke, Quebec. Boeing will use the equipment to load three specially modified 747-400s (Dreamlifters), that will transport major 787 Dreamliner components by air. An operator seated in a cab atop the giant loader will drive the machine to the parked Dreamlifter aircraft. Sensors will perfectly align it to the Dreamlifter's cargo-handling system to ensure safe loading and unloading. The Dreamlifter fleet will ferry 787 wings and fuselage parts from partners in Wichita, Kan.; Charleston, S.C.; Grottaglie, Italy; and Nagoya, Japan, to Boeing's Everett factory for final assembly. A cargo loader will be based at each facility. This first loader was disassembled and delivered by ship to Nagoya and Grottaglie for reassembly.
