Handling of Air Baggage

Here are some images from my 10 week long thesis work Handling of Air Baggage that I did when graduating from my bachelor in industrial design from Umeå Institute of Design. It has been a very exiting project in close collaboration with Swedavia - owner of most swedish airports, TYA - a company that works with improving the working conditions for workers within the transport industry and Aviator - ground handling company at Arlanda Airport.

The background to the project is that the airport staff working with baggage handling have a tough job, lifting up to 15 tonnes per person on a busy day. Every bag gets lifted manually 6 times on its way from check in to the baggage drop band, which is why the work is very repetitive and often leads to back, shoulder and other kinds of physical problems. My concept, the ABT (Autonomous Baggage Train) is an autonomous vehicle that transports baggage between the airport terminals and the airplanes. It removes 4 of the 6 manual lifting moments, shortens the waiting time for the arriving passengers, reduces the wear on both baggage and the airport's baggage bands and contributes to a safer working environment with less accidents due to human errors.

The ABT was awarded the highest price in the international design competition Spark Awards in the autumn of 2015. The presentation of the project at Spark Award's homepage can be seen here:

In 2016 the project was also awarded with a Red Dot award in the Design Concept category.

Below follows some images that will give you a better understanding of the design process behind the pro.

strangely also class mate for half a year - Mikael Lugnegård.
He is a great source of inspiration!
