Crisplant will also highlight their extensive range of integration and maintenance skills, as well as an in-house manufacturing capability, which allows virtually every element of an advanced baggage handling system to be produced in Crisplant’s own facilities.

According to Crisplant’s Managing Director, Klaus Schäfer, “The new ‘econ’ version of the LS-4000 sorter is a cost-effective alternative to conventional conveyor or carousel-based sorter systems and enables Crisplant to extend high-speed automated baggage handling systems into airports which are looking for an economic solution and normally would not have had the floor space to support such an advanced system.”

Crisplant combines over twenty years of experience in designing, manufacturing and integrating high-speed baggage handling systems for major airports around the world, with a proven support network for the on-going operation and maintenance of these systems. The complete Crisplant range includes tilt-tray sorters, tote-systems, DCV-systems and conveyors as well as IT and software controls.
