FAST2CHECK ATRS Automatic Tray Return System

Cassioli FAST2CHECK is an ATRS (Automatic Tray Return System) designed to allow higher productivity, reduced waiting times and increased passenger flows. FAST2CHECK meets the needs of any type of airport, from the smallest to the largest international airports. Design and engineering innovation helps to significantly reduce queues, whilst maintaining a focus on ensuring the highest security standards at the airport. The modular design allows excellent system flexibility, allowing development of different configurations according to the needs of each airport. Thanks to FAST2CHECK’s state-of-the-art technology, airport personnel can avoid spending time on secondary operations such as handling empty trays, focusing more on security procedures and quality of service. All system units work with very-low-voltage DC motors, guaranteeing the highest efficiency and eliminating the possible risks of electrocution for passengers and operators who are in direct contact with the system; the high quality of the materials used for the components guarantees optimal operating reliability for the equipment, with availability above 99.5%, even with H24 usage.

FAST2CHECK CHARACTERISTICS

Queue Beater – The system developed to reduce queues and waiting times during the inspection phase

Queue Beater is an innovative system that reduces passenger waiting times during the hand-baggage inspection process, thanks to a parallel approach to the process that allows processing of eight passengers at once. The main innovation introduced by the Queue Beater is that, thanks to the support surface positioned parallel to the conveyor, several passengers can deposit their objects in the trays at the same time, occupying all available positions. The positioning of passengers is indicated on the ground by specific symbols. Once the tray with personal items is ready, simply push it into the motorized line, which transports it to the x-ray machine. The Queue Beater significantly increases passenger flows and improves the usability of machinery. The advantages of this system are estimated to correspond to an increase in total flows of more than 60%.

Automatic viewing and recirculation system

The tray collection, storage and recirculation system is located at the end of the main line. It is equipped with a device that automatically detects the presence of any items left in the tray. If items are detected, the system does not insert the tray into the storage and recirculation device until all items have been recovered. Once the tray has been emptied, it is fully automatically inserted into the recirculation process and brought back to the start of the FAST2CHECK system by a high-speed handling system.

Smart Workstation – Solution for managing and approving suspicious baggage sent to the recheck station

This special system works with images, regardless of the type of x-ray machine installed, without affecting operation of the latter. “Smart Workstation”, developed entirely by Cassioli, uses the images generated by the x-ray machine and increases the possibilities and options available to the first-level operator, supporting him/her in the decision to be made, offering the option to indicate and report the position and type of threat. Correspondence between the images displayed and the tray, as well as tracking of discarded baggage on the suspicious baggage line, is guaranteed by an RFID system on each tray loaded in the system. In this way, the second-level operator receives much more detailed information about the possible risk. All information is made available in a database compiling data, photos, times, outcome and operators involved. The second-level workstation manages the images coming from the camera, the tray IDs, the additional records actions performed (operator ID, passenger first name and surname, threat type, relevant flight, actions performed, comments) and the image from the first-level workstation. All smart workstations are networked, so discarded baggage on one line can also be checked at the second-level workstation on another line. The Smart Workstation system not only optimizes and accelerates the security process and management of suspicious baggage, but also contributes directly to increasing the total passenger flows.
