Vanderlande will supply two innovative solutions \u2013&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanderlande.com\/systems\/make-up\/bagload\/\">BAGLOAD<\/a>&nbsp;for integrated robot loading and FLEET Batch for the transportation of ULDs. These solutions will be trialled at Oslo Gardermoen Airport in Norway. The ultimate goal of this partnership is to enhance the efficiency and reliability of baggage handling, benefiting the airport industry as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avinor received funding of around NOK 15 million (\u20ac1.3 million) after Innovation Norway selected its project proposal. The airport operator chose Vanderlande as its technology partner through a tender process, and the newly formed IP runs from August 2023 to November 2024. The two organisations have a long history of partnership, dating back to 1994 when Vanderlande supplied Oslo Gardermoen Airport\u2019s first baggage handling system (BHS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal of the IP is to automate a part of the baggage handling process that has remained unaltered for more than 50 years. The unloading of luggage from the BHS on to containers bound for the aircraft is currently a labour intensive and costly operation. According to Avinor, about 50% of costs related to baggage handling are incurred through these last-mile activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first phases of the IP will take place at Vanderlande\u2019s testing facilities in Veghel, The Netherlands, and involves further developing and prototyping the technologies according to the project brief. From September 2024, the two products will be subject to a three-month trial at Oslo Airport, where Avinor has built a dedicated project test centre. This facility is connected to the BHS, so assessments will be undertaken in a truly \u201clive\u201d environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe main objective of our IP is to increase the efficiency of the baggage handling process while removing repetitive heavy lifting duties currently undertaken by baggage handlers,\u201d says Ole Petter Storstad, Director of Technology and Infrastructure at Avinor. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to work with Vanderlande, whose current level of technology provides us with confidence that a viable solution can be developed and rolled out across the entire industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be partnering Avinor in this ambitious project, and I believe their choice is recognition of our strong focus on automating the end-to-end baggage handling process,\u201d says Andrew Manship, Vanderlande\u2019s Executive Vice President Airport and Parcel Solutions and Board Member. \u201cThe collaboration will supercharge our development work, and a successful outcome will benefit the airlines, handling companies and all individuals currently engaged in difficult manual work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information, please visit:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanderlande.com\/news-insights\/?news-industry=airports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" https:\/\/www.vanderlande.com\/news-insights\/?news-industry=airports (opens in a new tab)\"> https:\/\/www.vanderlande.com\/news-insights\/?news-industry=airports<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vanderlande and airport operator Avinor have formed an innovation partnership (IP) to explore ways of fully automating the last mile of the baggage handling process.
