Siegling – total belting solutions

2BAGGAGE HANDLINGAT INTERNATIONAL AIRPORTS
The majority of the world’s airports use Forbo Movement
Systems products to convey air freight and baggage.
When it comes to equipping international airports with conveyor and processing
belts, there are good reasons why Forbo Movement Systems is the market leader.
With our global service network and experience from numerous major projects,
we act as a partner to OEMs and operating companies in terms of planning, construction and after-sales service.

Our product range is tailored to the requirements of today’s airports and reflects
the increasing demands placed by the ever-greater quantity of baggage andfreight. The latest example: Energy-saving conveyor belts (Amp Miser™) thatare up to 50 % more energy efficient.
Our experience, high quality standards and the results of consistent researchand development ensure our products are always one step ahead. Which is why
baggage and air freight are moved with our conveyor and processing belts theworld over.
Safely, reliably and efficiently.

FROM THE CHECK-IN
TO LOADING

High-speedconveyors

A high-performance conveyor can’t afford to have
any weak points. Forbo Movement Systems’ conveyor
and processing belts are designed to do the job
required on each and every section of the conveyor.

Drag bandconveyors

Our belts ensure efficient and fast operations, geteven better performance out of existing conveyors
and save a lot of energy in many cases.
Paddlebelts

Curved belts

Reliable conveying due to a special
fabric structure (distributing forcesin the belt well).

4X-raymachines

Collecting belts/
Accumulationbelts

High-quality image definition due
to the belts’ exceptional flatness,
uniform splices and first-classcoatings.

The belts are so flat and smooththat transferring items onto theconveyor from the sides is noproblem.

Synchronizing,
Accelerator belts

Check-insystems

Special surface patterns ensure
good grip. Even difficult trolleycases are conveyed reliably.

Full belt merge(full belt diverter)

Horizontal
conveying(metering)

Strip merge

Perfect transfer of items conveyed
due to small return radii; shorttake-up ranges thanks to the belts’tight length tolerances.

5

Incline/decline,
Accelerator belts

Secure inclined conveying due toconveyor belts with patterns orlateral profiles.

Loading
aircraft

Especially hard-wearing belts
operate reliably even if thehumidity and temperaturefluctuate.

Product Structure
conveyor and processing belts

Pick the right belt with B_Rex

Top face | Various coating materials,
thicknesses and patterns determine grip,
chemical, physiological and mechanicalproperties of the belt.

Tension member | The use of various special
fabrics largely determines the suitability forspecific applications. Belt tracking properties, load/elongation properties, electrostatic properties, flatness, knife edge andcurve suitability are directly dependant on
the fabric construction.

To ensure conveyors operate efficiently, the physical parameters of the belts used should be agood match with the design of the conveyor.
Our B_Rex belt calculation program can:– select the right belts for existing conveyors andUnderside | The design of the underside
determines the noise emission, wear,and suitability for sliding or rolling
support of the belt.

– create conveyor designs to allow previously
specified belts to be used.
The program enables symbolic images of andchanges to conveyors and drives and can therefore simulate how any conveyor interacts withany belt in our product range.
Any change to a design parameter immediately
triggers a new calculation so that the conveyor
simulated can be designed to be faster, morepractical and more precise.
You can receive the calculation program withinstructions in a PDF format and the informationon the articles in our product range by registering free of charge under:
www.forbo.com/movement > E-Tools
Our customers can use it for a limited period oftime to guarantee that current versions with thelatest product ranges are uploaded at regularintervals.

Belts for Checked Baggage
Screening (CBS) Systems

Amp Miser™ –Energy saving conveyor belts– 50 %
save up to 50 % of
the drive power withAmp Miser™

New CBS systems for the reliable, efficient andthorough ­inspection of baggage were developed
to meet the safety r­ egulations of international
aviation organisations.
Specially-developed products from Forbo
Siegling are decisive components when it comesto the operation of “Explosive Detection Systems”:– Precise belt tracking and good flatness makeexcellent image definition and high-quality
image transmission possible.
– High uniformity of material and splice minimizes the influence of the belt on the X-ray image.
– Thanks to the homogeneous splice area,
shadows or dark X-ray images resulting fromthe splice are practically eliminated.
– Our high quality coating materials ensure top
quality x-rays.
Forbo Siegling is your competent partner whenit comes to advanced CBS systems.

Due to a significantly reduced coefficient of friction, Amp Miser™ belts make an impact whereenergy losses in a conveyor are usually the greatest: in the friction between the bottom of the belt
and slider bed. By adding patented Texglide to theunderside fabric, a smooth layer is created thatpermanently acts like a dry lubricant and therefore minimizes energy consumption.
Best choice on galvanized slider beds
The Amp Miser™ types are also perfect on otherwise tricky galvanized slider beds. The coefficientof friction is μ < 0.17. And it’s just µ < 0.13 on nongalvanized steel.
Extremely economical consumption
Compared with standard types, in typical applications with long conveyors and heavy loads, up to50 % energy savings are possible, now.
Independent German inspection body TÜV Rhein­
land examined the characteristics of Amp Miser™
on a range of belt types used as examples. Theaccuracy of the online calculator, absolute carbon
dioxide savings and savings potential were confirmed and certified in the process.
Save resources and shrink your carbon
footprint now!
Forbo now also has belts called Transilon
ECOFIBER with identical energy savings and a tension member fabric made from 100 % recycled
PET. This already saves valuable primary raw materials and harmful carbon emissions during production.
