Materna IPS has implemented the installation together with Toyo Kanetsu K.K.
Tokyo International Airport (HANEDA), Japan's fastest growing airport by
passenger numbers, has increased its capacities through new terminal
extensions. The 4th biggest airport in the world commissioned the Japanese
provider Toyo Kanetsu K.K. (TKK) and the German provider Materna IPS
(Intelligent Passenger Solutions) with the provision of a unique self bag drop
solution at the Terminal 2 international facilities and in Terminal 3. It was
planned to start up the fully automated bag drops just in time for the world's
biggest sporting event in summer 2020. The new facility at Tokyo International
Airport (HANEDA) was successfully opened in April 2020 with 68 self bag drop
units. A total of 104 units will be installed this year. Japan Airlines (JAL)
is already using the solution for their passengers while All Nippon Airways
(ANA) and Delta Airlines (DAL) as well as many other airlines will follow
shortly.
Flex.Go solution by Materna IPS enables a unique passenger journey
With the revolutionary Materna IPS system Flex.Go, TKK has installed an
innovative baggage conveyor system in the futuristic departure hall of the new
terminal building. The self-service solution reflects the design language and
specific requirements of the airport and offers passengers a pleasant and
efficient travel experience. Materna IPS self bag drop units provide a simple
and quick way for passengers to drop off and insert luggage into the baggage
handling system. Functions such as fully automated baggage classification,
weighing and scanning will help to ensure that luggage can be dropped off
within seconds. In addition, Materna IPS and TKK will be integrating the
solution into the planned One ID biometric journey at Tokyo International
Airport (HANEDA) to create a truly seamless travel experience.
