Airport Baggage and Cargo Handling Systems
Reliable, Durable Baggage Handling Systems
For more than 50 years, Portec has delivered the most durable and reliable baggage and cargo handling systems to airports around the world. Portec has built a reputation for rugged dependability with more than 72,000 units in the field. More than 550 airports, including many of the largest, use Portec’s Belt Power Curves, Spiral Curves and Chutes.
Portec uses a “loose-belt” technology that greatly increases the life expectancy of the conveyor belts and end roll components. The design runs quietly – independently certified to meet or exceed required noise level criteria. Belt tension and continual adjustments are not required when environmental conditions change, unlike temperamental friction belt conveyors. Portec conveyors will work in the cold or heat and humidity without fail.
“It’s Your Turn” means Portec manufactures the equipment you need. Units are built to meet the special requirements of your applications, available in arcs from 5 to 350 degrees with many special options. We fit your curve to your business.
Additionally, Portec is a global manufacturer of specialty conveyor solutions including: Spiral Chutes, Angle-Flo Merges, queuing conveyors, gap conveyors, large belt merge conveyors and Power Faced Diverters. Portec's conveying solutions are used in airport baggage handling systems and mail/parcel handling systems around the world.
Portec Belt Power Curves Turn the Corner
Portec Belt Power Curves strong, all-steel frames come with a five-year warranty. Built for the most rugged operating conditions experienced in an airport baggage system, Portec equipment is designed so that most jams will not damage the conveyor or conveyor belt.
Portec’s guide system meets industry noise requirements, less than 75 dB(A) at a belt speed of 140 meters per minute.
Additionally, among all belt power curve manufacturers, Portec has earned a reputation for the lowest total cost of ownership (purchase price/maintenance cost/useful life) and rugged reliability.
Portec Spiral Curves Lift and Turn Your Baggage
Portec Spiral Curves offer a unique design that accomplishes both elevation and direction differentials with a single unit.
The positive-drive, loose-belt system is designed for reliable operation in heavy-duty applications, such as: continuous high speeds, high cycling, heavy loads and steep inclines.
Portec Spiral Curves are not affected by sudden load changes on the belt, temperature variations, contamination on/under the belt, incorrect belt tension or high cycling operations that can often damage friction-driven belt conveyors.
Portec equipment is the perfect solution for any critical conveying line.
Angle-Flo Conveyor for Merge/Diverge Operations
Portec Angle-Flo® angle merge conveyors are ideal for integrating baggage and cargo flows from two parallel conveyor lines to one combined flow or receiving deflected baggage onto a secondary line. Portec’s Angle-Flo® is very reliable at high speeds to maximize throughput.
The Angle-Flo® angle merge conveyors are available in 30° or 45° angles and provide quiet, smooth positive transfer. With precise indexing, throughput and rapid start/stop capability, the Angle-Flo® is your preferred merging solution.
The Angle-Flo XA is available for slow and medium speeds or intermittent high-speed operation, while the Angle-Flo® air bar version is recommended for heavy-duty applications or high-sustained speeds.
ChuteMaster Fiberglass Spiral Chute
Portec's ChuteMaster® fiberglass spiral chute is the solution for transporting baggage and cargo from upper levels to main conveying areas without drives or controls.
Portec uses the highest quality hand-laid fiberglass process to deliver a solution not impacted by changes in environment, such as heat and humidity.
The surface coating is extremely durable and assists products to flow freely, gently and safely. Standard 90° chute components are available in several diameters.
Specially designed round-bottom profiles help control the descending speed of the baggage and cargo.
With the optional multi-entry modules, a Portec ChuteMaster® is a convenient and economical option for moving baggage and cargo.
