General

BCS is a company specialising in the development, design, manufacture, installation and servicing of a broad range of innovative, state-of-the-art baggage handling systems (BHS) and material handling systems (MHS) as well as other products and services for the aviation and freight industry. BCS has implemented a wide range of BHS’ and MHS’ in many parts of the world. As a result of established engineering practices, quality manufactured equipment and a conscientious service department, the company is now an industry technical leader. BCS is also recognised as leaders for our control and software systems specifically developed for baggage handling applications. Verification of BHS design through simulation is an essential task for any modern baggage handling project. BCS’ own Virtual Airport is a revolutionary 3D simulation package, enabling the verification of BHS design, operational analysis and complete pre-installation testing of low and high level control systems. The advent of Virtual Airport provides a tool that extends the value of simulation from BHS design verification into the implementation and integration phases of BHS projects, through to operational functions. BCS specialise in supplying and integrating x-ray screening security systems, complex baggage sortation equipment, check weighing & dimensioning systems, telescopic conveyors and all types of standard conveyors and carousels to many regions of the world. We have developed an experienced, self sufficient capability to handle large, complex projects from concept development and simulation through to fabrication, system installation, commissioning, followed by operation & maintenance, in any part of the world. Company History

BCS was formed in 1993 initially to provide control system specialist work for the BHS industry where it was instrumental in ensuring the successful completion of one of Australia’s first automated baggage system projects at the new Brisbane International Airport. This followed with the supply of control and software systems for various other airports in the region including the first automated baggage system at Auckland International Airport and the new Qantas Domestic Terminal in Sydney. In 1999 BCS was the first company to successfully install and commission the first Hold Bag Screening (HBS) project in Australia (Brisbane) and in 2000 supplied all of the electrical design and control systems for the Sydney International Terminal (BHS and HBS) in time for the Sydney Olympics. More recently, BCS has completed major control systems and turnkey supply contracts in every major Australian airport including RFID and the Air NZ bag drop solution as well as cross belt and tilt tray sortation implementations. The BCS product range now includes the entire range of MHS conveyors, industrial control systems and software allowing us to provide total turnkey solutions for MHS projects. Currently BCS has 85% of the Australasian baggage handling market and is a major player in the worldwide BHS industry. BCS is also the premier infrastructure support provider in Australia where we operate and maintain the majority of BHS/HBS systems in Australia (including all the major ports). BCS is making major inroads into the freight and logistics markets with clients such as Toll, TNT,

The BCS Edge

BCS invests significant amounts annually into researching new leading edge technologies to ensure that the solutions that BCS provides are best suited to the requirements of the industry. This includes better and more accurate methods to achieve higher accuracies in tracking, RFID (radio frequency ID tags), using Variable Speed Drive controls to minimize maintenance and operating costs, and better ways of providing reporting and user information on system operations to support the airports with their cost justifications to the airlines on achieving KPI’s. BCS has worked with all major X-ray suppliers and has developed control system interfaces to the machines for fully automated functionality. BCS has developed highly accurate and fault tolerant tracking algorithms that run on a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). Standard and robust codes have also been developed by BCS for PLC communication with:

• Automatic Tag Reader (ATR) to receive barcode information about the bag or increasingly RF based solutions for more accurate information.

• Check Weigh Cube (CWC) machines to size parcels for sortation and monetary transactions.

• Manual Encode Equipment for manually scanning the bag for its barcode.

• Hold Bag Screening equipment to receive screened information on the bag.

• Sortation software (such as Airflow) to determine where the bag needs to be sent.

Page 6

The PLC uses Pulse Position Indicators (PPI) that monitors the conveyors movement for tracking. Each tracked conveyor is represented by a model within the PLC that is controlled by the PPI for that conveyor; this is referred to as the Tracking Model. Normally the entire length of a conveyor is considered to be one tracking model. The PLC uses this model to accurately track the bag down the conveyor but has built tolerance to allow for baggage that may slide or hold up slightly while travelling on the conveyor.

Software Systems

BCS Airport Systems has developed its own High Level Sort Allocation Software called Airflow. Airflow has proven interfaces to most airline / airport Departure Control Systems including SITA, ARINC, QUBE and CUTE. Airflow software is installed at Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Darwin International Airports, as well as the Qantas Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane Domestic Terminals. In 2000, BCS also installed the Airflow software into Kuala Lumpur Express Train Station. BCS tailor every Airflow installation to the requirements of the project, and whilst BCS has developed standard product modules, these can and are adapted to every installation to meet the needs of the client. BCS has also developed Simulation Software, called Virtual Airport, that allows BCS to virtually test a system design to ensure that it can meet the required system KPI’s. Once the design has been proven by the simulation, the design can be easily converted into an emulation tool to prove all control systems. With the entire system design and architecture being developed in house, BCS is able to design and test all of the systems and interfaces before coming to site. BCS recognizes that risk management is vital at airports and using Virtual Airport enables BCS to have better control of the commissioning process. This means that we are confident that the software we provide is fully tested and requires minimal conditioning to allow the system to be properly tested for live functionality.
