Airport Baggage Handling Systems, Sorting and RFID integration

Airport Baggage Sortation Systems

Crisplant sets the standards for Airport Baggage Sortation with the largest installed base of high-speed Tilt-tray sorters worldwide. The Next Generation LS-4000E Tilt-tray sorter feature a wide range of benefits for Airports including:

• Baggage Handling Flexibility
• Greener and More Efficient Energy System
• Reduced Power Consumption
• Low Product Life Cycle Costs
• Integration & Layout Flexibility
• High Capacity

CrisBag Baggage Handling System

CrisBag is a unique, tote-based Baggage Handling system combining sorting, storage and high-speed transportation in one system. Baggage is transported in totes providing stable, uniform item handling, resulting in higher transportation speeds and therefore shorter connection times. Due to a special design, the tote allows efficient screening and gentle transportation of all baggage types, shapes and sizes.
Benefits includes:

• Shortest Connection Times
• Lowest IR Rate
• Optimal security
• Modular, space-saving design
• 100% conveyability
• Integrated RFID technology for 100% track & trace

Combined RFID & Barcode Identification Unit

The combined RFID & Barcode unit for baggage handling systems is the next step in the RFID product development process to minimise the number of short-shipped baggage and manual handling costs.

This plug-and-play RFID & Barcode solution allows a high read rate - even when tags are placed in difficult positions. The solution also offers an improved track-and-trace technology, which can reduce the lost baggage costs for the airport. With the RFID unit, airports will not only safe cost, but also improve the efficiency and security in Baggage Handling System.

Baggage Handling IT and Controls Concept

The Crisplant IT and Controls Concept will run the entire baggage handling system or integrate seamless into an existing solution ranging from small systems with minimum requirements to automatic baggage handling in the largest hubs.

Crisplant offers a standard solution through the Crisplant Baggage Handling Software Suite. It is a flexible and modular solution that enables the complete operational management of the Baggage Handling System.

Emulation and Simulation

Airport baggage handling projects are submitted to multi-stage testing. System simulation and emulation is used as part of these tests to verify the software and hardware upon completion of the system design and software coding. Crisplant has developed a SW tool to generate emulation from the project specific 3D AutoCAD drawings of the baggage handling system.

Emulation link the actual hardware and the controls software to a computer model running the actions and initiating the I/Os and telegram flow in real time. This process ensures that the upper and low level software is fully tested before shipment to the airport site. Using emulation to test the system early in the project, minimises valuable project site time and reduces costs.
