Successful baggage handling

Habasit understands, that our success depends on the success of our customers. Application engineers, technicians
and joining specialists are at your disposal to provide professional consulting, superb customer service and excel-
lent support. Since its foundation in 1946, Habasit provides value-added solutions tailored exactly to meet customer
specifications. Here we will give an insight of Habasit products for applications in the Airport Industry.

Check-in
For areas accessible to the public such as check-in and take-away
conveyors, the visual appearance of belting material is crucial.
Perfect belt tracking, wear-resistant belt edges and belt surfaces,
antistatic properties, clean joints and high-grip surfaces – high
quality Habasit conveyor belts ensure long-term trouble-free
operation of your check-in equipment.
Many of our belts for check-in and take-away conveyors meet flame
retardant properties according to ISO 340/DIN 22103 standards.
Specially designed belt surfaces ensure proper conveyance of all
goods including suitcases on wheels.

Baggage Screening
Baggage screening – from hand-luggage screening devices to the
most advanced explosives detection system, you will find the
right belt in our range.

For hand-luggage screening devices a non-scratch, light TPU belt

with excellent, long lasting surface properties is the right choice.
Excellent mechanical belt stability combined with a robust belt
surface and outstanding tracking behaviour are required if heavier
items such as suitcases and other baggage items are to be
screened.

Baggage handling systems

Inclines/declines
Depending on the degree of incline or decline the selected belt
must have the right degree of adhesion. In the wide range of
conveyor belts offered by Habasit with a variety of surface structures
and levels of adhesion, you will find the best belt solution to meet
your requirements. Other key features that include low noise
properties, wear resistance, mechanical stability and flame
retardant behaviour (in accordance with ISO 340/DIN 22103
standards) are part of the Habasit offering.

Curved conveyors
For directional changes, power turns offer high flexibility as
different angles and even changes of level can be realized.
Curved belts can be cut in one piece, alternatively they can be
tailored out of a number of segments. In the case of airport
applications, flame retardant properties according to ISO 340/DIN
22103 may be required. For proper belt functionality, accurate
belt tailoring is key.
Induction belts and sorter
For various induction and merge systems, selection of the
appropriate belt is of greatest importance in order to avoid jams
or missorting. Habasit offers a variety of belts with different
degrees of adhesion and surface structures.
Thanks to gentle handling combined with maximum sorting
precision and flexibility, cross belt and tilt tray sorters have
become very popular for use in baggage sorting. Habasit offers a
variety of high quality conveyor belts to ensure reliable and
precise system functionality for all sub-systems such as induction,
cross belt sorting and discharge steps.

Aircraft loading/unloading system

In the unloading and loading sections, goods have to be handed
on and off the belts. Due to this relative motion medium-adhesive
or non-adhesive belt surfaces are required. Low noise running
and anti-glare properties are especially important where people
are exposed to belt emissions. For telescopic loaders with
reversing belt movement, excellent belt tracking is critical.
For loading narrow-body aircrafts the sliding carpet loading system
provides the most efficient results. The sliding carpet consists of
a specially designed conveyor belt which features mechanical
strength, excellent wear resistance, low friction running side and
suitability for nose bars.
