Inclined Carousel

The carousel is designed to recirculate baggage on a continuous basis until it is removed from the conveyor. The Incline claim carousel can be used as an arrivals carousel or make-up loop.

Whilst the design of the conveyor modules has been standardised, it allows for different configurations in length and height to suit different applications.

A minimum conveyor height of 450mm can be achieved (measured to the top of the front trim). Inclined carouseds are used to maximise the number of bags which can be stored on a unit.
