Air Freight Doesn't Forgive Delays, We Make Sure It Never Has To

Air freight doesn't forgive delays. A missed connection, bottleneck, or cargo transfer adds costs quickly. As your partner, we connect ground vehicles, equipment, and transport systems in real-time, syncing every movement into a seamless, AI-driven flow for certainty in every condition.

Full Autonomy from Cargo to Apron

Powered by our full-stack, in-house developed automatic hitching/unhitching system and high-precision AS/RS alignment technologies, our smart airport tractor system creates a fully automated closed-loop operation from cargo terminal to designated work areas, improving efficiency and safety for high-value, time-critical air freight.

Smooth Upgrade to L4 Autonomy

Not every airport is ready for full autonomy on day one. Our phased upgrade starts with the E-Tractor in manual mode, adding intelligence step by step: green energy, then autonomy, and full 24/7 unmanned operations when ready. Each phase protects your current investment and maximizes return. Intelligent dispatch boosts safety and efficiency at every stage, not just the destination.

A Zero-Carbon Fleet Making Green Operations Standard

Sustainability targets in aviation are accelerating, and the pressure to decarbonize ground operations is real. Our airport solution uses zero-emission vehicles, making green operations a reality today. With energy-efficient dispatch and carbon reduction strategies in every scheduling decision, we help airports achieve efficiency, sustainability, and cost-competitiveness.

Westwell Showcases Its Smart Airport Solution Based on AI and New Energy at the IATA WCS

The World Cargo Symposium (WCS) hosted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) came to a successful conclusion in Hong Kong, China from March 12 to 14. This is the largest and most influential annual event in the global air freight sector. As a global leader in "intelligent and new energy" comprehensive solutions in the logistics industry, Westwell showcased its new "smart airport logistics and ground management" holistic solution at the event. Recently, Westwell established its international headquarters and overseas R&D center in Hong Kong. The official debut of Westwell Hong Kong Company at this event will accelerate its international business expansion by utilizing Hong Kong's international resources, and promote the smart and sustainable transformation of the logistics industry based on intelligent and new energy technologies.

End-to-End Automation in Air Cargo Terminals: A New Era of Seamless Air Freight Logistics Operations

The air cargo logistics industry is undergoing rapid growth, fueled by the boom in e-commerce. As of January 2025, global Cargo Tonne-Kilometres (CTK) have risen by 3.2% year-on-year, marking 18 consecutive months of growth, according to IATA. With this surge in demand, traditional air cargo terminals are under increasing pressure to adapt. Outdated infrastructure and manual processes can no longer meet the need for enhanced efficiency, scalability, and sustainability.

Westwell Signs an MOU with Hactl to Explore the Future of Smart Airports

On April 3, Westwell signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Hong Kong Air Cargo Terminals Limited (Hactl) - Hong Kong’s largest independent cargo handler to collaborate on the introduction of new energy autonomous driving tractor, the Q-Tractor P40. Both parties aim to develop autonomous vehicles which – in addition to the relatively simple task of towing cargo dollies – automatically couple and uncouple the dollies, and adjust to their differing specifications.
