Simulation & Emulation Software for Baggage Handling
Design simulation of BHS system and BHS layout specific emulation testing.
Simulation Benefits
Forecast future capacity requirements
Future proof your system by testing against forecast future capacity requirements.
Identify operational bottlenecks
Identify, minimize or manage bottle-necks
Test operational scenarios
Plan for fall-back scenarios and other operational impact events
Validate future system modifications
As-built simulations can be later used to validate additional modifications
Support operational training
Assist airport operations and BHS O&M staff to develop SOP’s under fallback scenarios
Simulation Overview
We offer simulation-driven baggage handling system (BHS) design and validation to airport stakeholders to realize any potential operational impacts at the earliest possible opportunity in the development cycle.
Inputs are loaded to reflect sufficient capacity in normal and fall-back scenarios.
Flight tables are entered into the virtual layout model to ensure the systems-designed KPIs are met within the simulated environment and to ensure that any potential bottle-necks are engineered out or understood prior to committing time or cost to a project.
Alstef Group uses the most up-to-date simulation tools available on the market and has decades of experience in delivering these services.
Emulation Benefits
Factory acceptance testing
Used in factory acceptance testing to ensure system readiness prior to deployment.
Multi-layer system emulation
Emulate systems ranging from small PLC and HMI configurations to full sortation systems with multiple PLCs, HLC and SCADA.
Full-system throughput testing
Test full-system throughput before deployment to reduce on-site testing, commissioning and troubleshooting.
De-risk system cutovers
Emulate the system before installation to reduce risk during complex cutovers.
Emulation Overview
Our Emulation solution is built on a world-leading platform with a full 3D real-time environment and enabled physics engine to model a system as close to the physical world as possible.
A virtual model of the layout is constructed and connected to the full software control system including PLC, HLC, and SCADA ensuring a complete end-to-end test scenario. The solution is fully scalable, from the smallest airport up to the very largest operation.
