Bag Store Systems
Low-bay and unitary bag storage solutions for busy airports
Alstef Group's bag store systems help airports efficiently manage early check-in baggage, transfer baggage, batch build operations and peak demand periods. Available in both high-density tote-based and conveyor-based configurations, our solutions improve baggage flow, optimise make-up operations and maximise available terminal space.

BAGSHUTTLE is a high-speed shuttle system that distributes bags to conveyor-based low-storage bays offering accumulation conveyor lanes for batch storage of the bags and collecting lanes for retrieval of bags (full or partial flush of storage lanes).
BAGSHUTTLE Benefits
Highly flexible configurations
No limitation for retrieval
One, two or three layer shuttles
Conveyor-based Low-bay Storage Solution
BAGSHUTTLE systems can be configured to suit any available space and are ideal for when the terminal building design limits options for tote-based, high-bay storage.
Applications
- Early bag store: to store early, checked bags
- Transfer processing: to store transfer bags if the transfer duration is significant
- Optimization of an existing sortation system: chute opening period per flight can be shortened to increase the capacity of the BHS


High-bay Unitary Storage Using Stacker Crane Technology
BAGTOTE is a bag storage conveying solution that provides independent storage and retrieval of individual bags. Each tote is RFID equipped to provide 100% tracking and the totes are stored in high-bay stacking systems - up to 20 meters high.
Totes are accessed via double fork stacker cranes increasing input/output capacity. Double deep forks technology enables redundancy and means any bag can be accessed from more than one aisle in case of crane failure.
The highly-efficient tote based conveying range includes:
