Luggage Conveyor Belt

This conveyor belt system consists of two or more pulleys (sometimes referred to as drums), with an endless loop of carrying medium - the conveyor belt - that rotates about the pulleys.

These conveyor belts are durable and reliable components that are also used in automated distribution and warehousing. It can be controlled by computer systems to achieve higher efficiency.

The longest conveyor system in an airport can be found at the Dubai International Airport, where the baggage handling system is an amazing 63 km(39 mi)in length.

Ever wonder where your bags go when you check into the airport? A fun video by Pensacola Gulf Coast Regional AIrport giving you a "bag's eye view" of the new inline baggage system installed as part of the 2010 expansion.
