Overlapping Slat Carousel
The carousel is designed to recirculate baggage on a continuous basis until it is removed from the conveyor. The overlapping slat 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 many different configurations of length and top of belt height to suit different applications.
