The Sectro self-service security check, developed by HÖRMANN Klatt Conveyors together with its strategic partner, BEUMER Group, is a design for a fully automated system for passenger hand baggage screening.

The solution reconfigures the passenger screening process from a linear concept to a parallel process by logically merging functions.

As passengers enter the security check area, they hand in their hand baggage at one of the self-service stations. A touchscreen guides them through the simple process of linking their biometric data to their baggage. The baggage is automatically sent to a central system for verification. Images of the scans are transmitted to the remote control. Once both the passenger and carry-on baggage have been cleared, the passenger is directed to a self-service pick-up station where their belongings are delivered using the passenger's unique biometric ID as a reference.
