Working with Vanderlande, the market’s largest original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and supplier of logistic process automation for airports, Hart Doors has won a contract to supply 60 high-speed screens for a new baggage handling system at Manchester International airport.    

This revolutionary high-speed conveyor door is designed for high-frequency conveyor systems, providing security and safety between the public area and baggage system mechanics. The modular construction, designed and manufactured in the UK and shipped worldwide, easily interfaces with third-party equipment.   

Hart’s managing director, Nick Hart, says the high-speed screens operate with each bag that is checked in. "The door system communicates with both the baggage handling and the security system, and can be interrogated remotely from anywhere in the world.”     

With the demand for self-service check-in and baggage drop, these systems need to be reliable and innovative to handle the millions of passengers that go through the airport every year. This automated technology will be even more critical after the current COVID-19 crisis as passengers look for ways to limit interaction.
