Problem
Airlines rely on manual, legacy load control processes that are prone to human error, inconsistent weight distribution, and regulatory non‑compliance, leading to higher labor costs and suboptimal fuel efficiency.
Solution
Tekna’s Digital Load Controller (DLC) replaces manual calculations with an AI‑driven platform that generates optimal aircraft load plans—including weight distribution and center‑of‑gravity calculations—in under one second. The system integrates via API with existing DCS/W&B solutions, providing real‑time verification, automated data intake of passengers, cargo, and fuel, and a complete audit trail. By ensuring 100 % compliance with operator procedures and industry regulations, DLC reduces training requirements, minimizes human error, and delivers measurable fuel savings through precise CG optimization. Continuous performance analytics and KPI dashboards enable airlines to monitor efficiency and refine operations across their entire fleet.
Target Audience
Primary customers are commercial airlines and cargo operators that manage aircraft weight and balance across multiple fleets and require regulatory compliance and fuel‑efficiency improvements.
