Carrier launches TechLift
Qatar Airways Cargo has unveiled its latest product innovation–TechLift.
This dedicated product vastly enhances air cargo transportation for the full spectrum of the semiconductor industry–a key and growing trade.
TechLift leads the industry in offering unique protection, including targeted shock absorption for all ground and aircraft equipment, while moving all types of semiconductor products: integrated circuits, chipsets, microchips, urgent semiconductor manufacturing machinery and etching wafers among others.
“Nearly every aspect of modern-day life relies on semiconductors–from smartphones to data centres and cloud computing, to automotive, electric vehicles and industrial applications, and now, to an ever-increasing extent, AI and the Internet of Things,” noted Mark Drusch, Chief Officer Cargo, Qatar Airways Cargo.
Loading priority
TechLift has been carefully defined to ensure that all semiconductor shipments are handled with the greatest care from acceptance to delivery. The product allows higher loading priority, the use of approved data loggers, specialized handling techniques as per commodity-specific operational guidelines and protection from adverse weather conditions, according to a press release.
In addition, customers can combine the product with the following AirPlus Solutions:
Q-Climate – Temperatures are kept at an optimum level, including using refrigerated trucks with extra shock absorption to mitigate movement during ground transfers in Doha
Q-Plus – For even higher loading priority
Q-Prime – Highest priority on capacity constrained flights with the added benefit of continuous monitoring by Qatar Airways Cargo’s Control Tower.
