Flow control Optimising throughput, reducing mishandled bags and labour costs VIBES not only enables airports to monitor handling equipment and processes, but also predict baggage flow using the flow control module.

VIBES flow control can identify how many bags are due to arrive in five minutes’ time, where they are supposed to go, and how much time there is before the flight make-up closes. Operators can then...
