Conveyor belts for X-Ray Machines

Security has top priority at airports. Which is why all items of baggage are checked by x-ray equipment to ensure they contain nothing that could jeopardize flight safety. For some years now, this has applied to carry-on items and items of baggage checked in as well. Technical Requirements of the belts It’s imperative that conveyor […]

Accelerated and Inclined Conveying

During acceleration and inclined conveying, it’s imperative that items of baggage remain in place. If exact tracking of their position at any time proves impossible, huge disruptions to the process will occur. Technical Requirements of the belts Surface materials and patterns must be designed so that items of baggage can almost consistently keep to their […]

Horizontal conveyor belts

Items of baggage are often conveyed horizontally over long distances, from the check-in to the sorter and from there onto the aircraft. To cover these distances, a high proportion of the total energy consumption is required by the conveyor. Technical Requirements of the belts Which is why energy-efficient belts on horizontal conveyors produce a very […]

Drag Band Conveyors / Twin Belts

Items of baggage are conveyed in trays, particularly in high-speed sections. These keep the baggage safe, decrease damage and enable much better tracking in the baggage handling system. The trays are positioned on the outside on two narrow, parallel conveyor belts. These drag band conveyor systems achieve speeds of up to 12 m/s. Technical Requirements […]

Curved conveyor belts

Curved conveyors change the direction in which items are moved on the conveyor itself. Standard curve angles are 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°, 135° and 180°, but any angles in between are possible, depending on the conveyor’s layout. They normally have tapered return drums, but some curve manufacturers also use cylindrical drums. Technical Requirements of the […]

Belts for Merging and Diverting

The sorter is the nucleus of the baggage handling system. All items of baggage checked in are merged in here and (depending on their destination) also diverted again at defined points. Merging often occurs at a 30° or 45° angle to the direction the sorter is conveying in. These conveyors either have one single wide […]

Belts for Loading and Unloading Aircraft

Aircraft are usually loaded and unloaded by outdoor inclined conveyors. The belts move all sorts of baggage and are constantly exposed to typical local weather conditions, which can fluctuate hugely. Technical Requirements of the belts The impact of rain, snow, hail and ultraviolet rays requires the fabrics and coating materials to be weatherproof. A robust, […]
