In August 2000, the Jervis B. Webb Company ofCanada, Ltd., in conjunction with the airport sys-tems group at Webb’s worldwide headquarters inFarmington Hills, Michigan, was awarded thecontract to furnish and install the outbound andinbound baggage handling systems for the newterminal.

The contract includes: three outbound subsystemsfor domestic/commuter flights, international flights,and transborder flights, which are fed by six ticketcounter check-in islands with a total of 164 check-inpositions. Each outbound subsystem includes twoautomatic tag readers with eight laser scannerseach, two manual encode stations, and transferbag inputs.

In March of 2004, Webb’s baggage handlingsystem for the first phase of the terminal expansioncomplied with all conditions for certification byCanadian TSA ahead of schedule.

The baggage system has been designed to getpassengers’ suitcases to the plane faster than thepassengers can walk to the gates from one of thecheck-in counters.

The system employs over three miles of conveyorsto move luggage to planes within six minutes.

Once a bag is placed on a check-in ticket counterconveyor, it begins its rapid journey behind thescenes at the Pearson Airport.

Check-in Ticket Counter Conveyor

This low profile, modular conveyor consists of ascale conveyor, dispatch conveyor, and a tipper toweigh, transport, and laydown baggage as it entersthe gathering conveyor.

OutboundGathering Conveyor

Baggage indexes to an assigned spot on the gath-ering belt conveyor and proceeds toward securityscanning.

Security Scanning

Every piece of luggage placed on a plane is fullyscreened through a multistep scanning systemthat combines manual and electronic surveillancewith x-ray and explosive detection equipment.Suspect bags are removed from the in-feed byhigh-speed Webb Vsort sorting conveyors.

Webb Vsort® Conveyors

Vertical sort units are used in-line with the securityscanning conveyor belts to remove suspect bag-gage to off-line baggage inspection prior to bag tagbarcode scanning.

Laser Scanning

Eight laser scanners read bag tag barcodes toconfirm specific bag information including: passen-ger name, flight number, and destination in order toactivate in-line bag sorters.

Long Belt Conveyors

These conveyors cross long distances quicklytransporting baggage to outbound planes fromcheck-in, between gates for connecting flights, andto baggage carousels from inbound flights.

Bag Sort Pushers

Bag sort pushers divert baggage to adjacent con-veyors and chutes as directed by Webb-View toroute bags towards the correct gate and plane

The high degree of integration and control incor-porated into the Lester B. Pearson InternationalAirport baggage handling system are made possibleby the Webb-View baggage handling control sys-tem. This advanced control system integrates thefour key elements of baggage system control:supervisory control, user interface, equipmentcontrol, and manual encode.

Supervisory ControlWebb-View supervisory control oversees the deliv-ery of baggage accurately, efficiently, and on time.

User InterfaceThe airport industry’s most user-friendly, intuitive,and informative interface is a powerful tool for dataanalysis and system control with the look and feelof Microsoft® Windows™.

Equipment ControlWebb-View equipment control provides the func-tions to reliably run your baggage handling hard-ware. Features include: the Webb patented bagtracking technology, motor control sequencing,sortation, manual encode, bag tag scanning, anddata collection.

Manual EncodeThis powerful, user-friendly device provides astand-alone platform for sortation, flight information,and local fault annunciation.
