 INTRODUCTION
● The Latchways WinGrip® System is a vacuum-based fall protection solution designed for aircraft
manufacturing and maintenance, offering versatility by being fixable to wings, fuselage, or stabilizers.
● Workers wearing full-body harnesses can attach to the system via work positioning ropes, enabling
hands-free access during maintenance tasks.
● The system undergoes rigorous testing and is rated for fall arrest, engineered with a safety factor of
two to limit load transfer to the aircraft structure.
● Asia Digital Engineering (ADE) is in the final stage to integrate the WinGrip® System into its Maintenance,
Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) services.
● This strategic initiative highlights ADE's commitment to enhancing safety standards and operational
efficiency in the aviation industry
