As an important hub for air transportation, airports not only receive passengers from all over the world, but also handle a huge amount of luggage every day. However, when we check in our luggage, do you know what journeys they have all gone through?
Although high temperature warnings have been issued in many places across the country recently, they can't stop everyone's enthusiasm for summer travel. As an important hub for air transportation, airports not only receive passengers from all over the world, but also handle a huge amount of luggage every day. However, when we check in our luggage, do you know what journeys they have all gone through?
First Stop|Baggage Drop-off
At check-in, bags to be checked in will be barcoded and placed on a conveyor belt to begin their journey to the airport.
Lenze is able to offer the vast majority of conveyor drive solutions for baggage handling systems at airports. Among them, the Lenze G500 geared motor plays an important role, and its excellent performance includes:
· It has a long service life and can continue to work intensively, guaranteeing 25,000 hours of operation
· The noise is low, and it meets the requirements of the conveyor belt below 65 decibels in the public area of the airport (open private room, baggage claim area).
· The energy efficiency level reaches IE3 to IE4 standards, and the use efficiency reaches more than 94%.
· The product has high stability, ensuring the continuous operation of airport baggage transportation, minimizing operational failures and ensuring the normal operation of the airport
The second stop: security check
Once the baggage has been checked in, it will be transported through a conveyor to an X-ray machine and other safety equipment for security checks.
During baggage transfer, Lenze offers simple and efficient decentralised drive solutions for fast and accurate baggage handling. The Lenze Smart Motor reduces the number of different drive versions and makes a single motor suitable for many applications in horizontal conveyors, with the following benefits:
· More than 70% reduction in variables
· Quadruple the starting torque, effectively reducing one frame size
· Mobile phone debugging, simple and fast
· The simplicity of the system leads to a reduction in costs and effort
· Components are greatly omitted, and wiring work is omitted
· One product, worldwide
· High degree of protection and wide operating temperature
The third station|transportation and sorting
After passing through security, the baggage is taken by conveyor to different destinations according to the characteristics of the cargo, and is "sorted" by the thruster to different tracks.
Ejectors are especially useful for selective classification
Lenze's highly dynamic drive technology allows individual bags to be diverted to the same outlet for final sorting or routing. The combination of no-load and part-load operation optimization technology and the use of the "VFC eco" energy-saving function can significantly reduce energy consumption. In addition, the innovative pluggable technology enables quick and easy equipment replacement during maintenance.
Fourth Stop|Early arrival for luggage storage
Checked baggage of passengers arriving at the airport early will be stored in the multi-storey warehouse until the flight opens.
In addition to providing superior hardware devices, Lenze offers complete solutions through digital innovation as an important means of the future. Intelligentization is achieved through simple engineering software, such as DSD software, to optimize equipment performance and enable dynamic management and efficient use of energy. In combination with Lenze's efficient automation solutions and market-proven high-bay warehouse technology, high storage availability is achieved.
· Efficient components for high baggage storage capacity
· Modular technology features allow for greater flexibility
· Optimized transport movements increase efficiency
· The DC bus connection between the travel drive and the lift drive reduces energy consumption
· The regeneration module allows for an optimal energy balance
The fifth stop|Luggage unloading
When the aircraft arrives at its destination, the checked baggage is unloaded from the aircraft and transported to the baggage claim hall via the arrival baggage transfer system.
Belt conveyor Efficient movement With 75+ years of experience in material handling technology, our belt conveyor equipment solutions are highly reliable and stable for high-speed conveying.
· Reduce energy consumption by optimizing no-load and part-load operation, as well as using the "VFC eco" energy-saving function
· Soft start, as well as deceleration technology with adjustable ramp, reduce maintenance
· The decentralised drive concept simplifies the installation process to a minimum and reduces the complexity of wiring
Leg 6 | Baggage Recovery
In the baggage claim hall, passengers can retrieve their checked baggage from the carousel corresponding to their flight number.
Lenze's automation solutions for airport logistics also offer significant advantages when applied to rotary conveyor belts. On the one hand, the equipment has the advantages of low noise, low energy consumption and stable operation, which well meets the requirements of the airport environment; On the other hand, features such as the aluminum gearbox housing, pluggable system, NFC setting parameters, and industry-standard interface specifications facilitate quick maintenance.
Application examples
Worldwide, Lenze Airport baggage logistics solutions are applied to more than 50 urban airports, bringing passengers an efficient, energy-saving, convenient, safe and reliable service experience.
Montreal International Airport is the third busiest airport in Canada and one of the most important airports in North America. With the increase in the number of flights over the years, the airport has upgraded its baggage handling system, and Lenze was fortunate to be a part of it. On the inclined sorter of luggage trays, 213 Lenze i550 frequency inverters are equipped to distribute the baggage from the main aisle to different locations. The i550 frequency inverter is suitable for decentralised drive technology, compact solutions for wall or rear mounting, user-friendly tools, fast installation and simple commissioning thanks to pluggable, standardized connections (plug and play).
In China, Lenze provides G500 geared motor solutions for baggage conveyance renovation projects in international airport terminals in first-tier cities, which can operate with ease and a very low failure rate even under the condition of daily heavy work, ensuring the orderly operation of the airport.
Behind these scenarios is the efficient coordination of the various devices in the baggage handling system (BHS), which go through layers of "checkpoints" to ensure that the checked baggage is finally returned safely to the passenger. Lenze solutions cover baggage storage, check-in, transportation, sorting, retrieval and other processes, bringing you an efficient, energy-saving, convenient, safe and reliable service experience.
