The waist-height tray feeding, empty tray recognition system (ETRS), automated tray return system (ATRS), and a layout designed for optimal ergonomics will also cut manual tasks performed by both agents and passengers.

Additionally, the company said that its screening system will allow Frankfurt Airport to optimise the use of screening equipment and resources, as well as make optimal use of its floorspace.

Vanderlande Airport and Parcel Solutions executive managing director Timothy Mathews said: “PAX MX2 is literally a perfect fit for Frankfurt Airport because it makes best use of limited space in their security checkpoints.

“Plus, the solution provides the optimal balance between delivering essential security requirements and operational efficiency.”
