Quanray Aviation Baggage Tag Tracking System Pilot in Milan Airport

In the management of airports, the efficient handling of air baggage is very important. Efficient and orderly sorting, positioning control, and tracking are essential factors to reflect the service quality of airlines. Traditional air baggage compartments are where passengers check-in their luggage before boarding and the luggage is put on a conveyor belt and sent to the plane they are on. A new generation of air baggage handling, using RFID technology solutions, can intelligently complete baggage check-in. To rapidly process classified baggage, more effectively track passenger packages, reduce baggage error handling, and reduce associated costs, IATA members have unanimously adopted ISO 18000-6C as the RFID standard protocol for baggage tracking systems.

Quanray Electronics is currently piloting its newly developed airline tracking system of baggage tags at Milan airport. Italian Milan airport is one of the big international airport, luggage tens of thousands of every day, each has its own bar code on your luggage, their recognition accuracy is as high as 80%, but the passenger's check-in luggage, each the five there will be a cannot be accurately identified, resulting in lost baggage delayed or damaged by mistake. Sometimes the passengers have to pick out the checked luggage 20% of the time after handling the luggage check formalities due to temporary accidents. Air baggage check-in requires real-time, accurate, cross-regional tracking, and other links. The traditional method of dividing air baggage into blocks has no effective monitoring means. Time-consuming and laborious, as well as the possibility of affecting the timely takeoff and flight safety of aircraft, airport airlines need to spend a lot of time and energy to solve these disputes every year, which brings great economic losses to the company.

Solutions of Quanray RFID aviation baggage-tags tracking system 

Quanray RFID aviation luggage label external antenna is a particularly suitable external flat antenna array, based on the belt UHF RFID application.

The RFID reader identifies each piece of baggage. The tag records all kinds of information about airline passengers, such as flight parking space, departure time and other information. It tracks, distributes, and transmits luggage. When passengers entrust the airport baggage to take over and start the flow of each link, such as sorting, installed extraction in the installation of electronic tag reading and writing equipment, and then transferred to each department, baggage information sharing and monitoring of the whole process in transportation, thus improve the management level and efficiency, luggage and accurate delivery to destinations on time, improve the safety management.
