Abstract :
As the fuel price is the 2nd largest costs, in airline industry, it has become a real challenge recently to be decreased. While there are many factors contributing to this, Load & Balance plays an important role in the scene. TRIMA our recently-patented software can uniquely improve the center of gravity management and increase the fuel efficiency sharply. It has been realized by means of Delphi in 18 months, with more than 180 thousand lines, and can be joined to surface thermometer and our recently made cargo handling robots. A decrease, as great as 2%, in overall fuel consumption was shown in our testing results over a year time.
