7 advantages for airport logistics

Airport logistics pose a variety of demands with regard to efficiency, reliability, and flexibility. Montech products are specifically designed to meet these challenges and offer many benefits.

Whether for bag drop, self-bag drop, or security and carry-on baggage control, Montech’s conveyor technologies are used at various locations in airports. This Swiss company specializes in the industrialization and standardization of state-of-the-art, unusual belt conveyors, transfer systems, and innovative aluminum framing systems. With the TB40 belt conveyor and RB40 roller conveyor, it ensures efficient and smooth processes at airports – for various reasons:

 
1. Reliable and durable products

Because breakdowns and delays can be very costly, efficient and reliable conveyor technologies are essential in airport logistics. That’s why Montech’s belt conveyors and automation solutions are robust, durable, and less susceptible to wear and breakdowns, maximizing uptime and minimizing maintenance costs.

 
2. Modular design

Montech’s modular system offers custom solutions at attractive prices with short delivery times, and its solutions can be integrated seamlessly into existing systems. The modular design allows for easy adaptation and expansion of the systems. Their flexibility enables quick reaction to changing conditions and maximum efficiency.

 
3. Customer-specific solutions

Montech offers solutions custom-tailored to the specific requirements of airport logistics. By working closely with customers, Montech ensures that systems work optimally and meet the specific challenges of each airport.

 
4. High-performance materials

Because the right choice of materials is also crucial in airport logistics, Montech uses only selected and extremely high-performance materials for its conveyor systems. The framing of the belt conveyors consists of an anodized aluminum profile that is extremely lightweight and corrosion resistant. The belts, available in anti-static and cut-resistant versions, are flame retardant, low-noise, and very durable.

 
5. Strong and energy-efficient drive

The TB40 belt conveyor’s 24 VDC motor enables the transport of baggage weighing up to 200 kg and it complies with low-voltage guidelines. Additional protection against contact is therefore not required. In times of rising energy costs and increasing environmental awareness, energy efficiency is also a decisive factor. Montech’s motors are up to 25% more efficient than the minimum efficiency class IE2 for mains-powered electric motors. Even in comparison to the highest efficiency class IE5, the drives for Montech’s conveyors are up to 10% more efficient. In the long term, this contributes to sustainability and cost savings at the airport.

 
6. Functional design

Montech’s TB40 belt conveyor distinguishes itself thanks to its remarkably low height of just 80 mm, which sets it apart from other belt conveyors on the market. The lower luggage belt offers greater comfort, accelerates the bag-drop process, and optimizes processes. The compact design of the TB40 belt conveyor with no interfering side contours also allows seamless and space-saving integration into various screening and bag-drop systems. The RB40 roller conveyor has height-adjustable floor stands, which are available in various versions. As a result, it can be tilted effortlessly and continuously if required.

 
7. Spare parts in stock

Breakdowns in the baggage handling process quickly cause problems. Montech’s TB40 belt conveyor and RB40 roller conveyor are therefore designed in such a way that the integrators in charge can make small repairs independently, easily, and quickly. This prevents long wait times and delays. The necessary wearing parts are conveniently available in Montech’s e-shop. And if the defect is larger, Montech will provide the integrator with a replacement device quickly and easily – so that airport logistics will always be smooth.

 
Efficient solutions for airport logistics

Montech’s conveyor technologies therefore offer an ideal solution for demanding airport logistics. With their reliability, modular design, customization options, and high-performance materials, they set new standards in efficiency and operational safety. The energy-efficient drives and sophisticated, functional design also contribute to sustainability and cost efficiency. The rapid availability of spare parts and easy maintenance of the systems ensure smooth operation. Montech is thus ensuring that airports around the world are equipped to tackle their logistical challenges.
