The iLane.pro is a modular checkpoint lane solution that integrates conveyor, tray handling, and X-ray unit mounting into a single configurable system. Its core differentiator within the iLane family is adaptability: the lane geometry, conveyor height, and bag spacing are configurable to match available terminal footprints and the X-ray unit installed. Automatic bag spacing — variable between 100 mm and 500 mm — prevents items from overlapping on the X-ray belt, which is a significant source of image-review time and re-screening requests on manually loaded lanes.

A motorised conveyor option with variable speed (0.17–0.44 m/s) enables throughput to be tuned to actual traffic rather than set at a fixed rate. An automatic bag-reject diverter routes flagged items to a secondary review station off the main lane, maintaining passenger flow past the X-ray output rather than stacking at the single operator position. Practical throughput is rated at 550 bags per hour.

Conveyor height and width are specified in variants to match the X-ray unit selected: the 7555 and 6040 series each have a matched iLane.pro configuration, ensuring correct belt transfer geometry between the tray-handling system and the X-ray tunnel opening.

The iLane.pro is positioned as the mid-tier checkpoint infrastructure: more integrated than a bare X-ray unit with a manual roller table, but without the parallel divest and high-threat module of the iLane A20. It is the appropriate choice for airports deploying a modern, efficient checkpoint in a space-constrained terminal where the full iLane A20 footprint is impractical.

Use cases.

  • New-build or retrofit checkpoint lanes at medium-throughput airports
  • Space-constrained terminals where iLane A20 full footprint is impractical
  • Automated bag spacing to reduce re-scanning on dense-traffic lanes
  • Paired deployment with HI-SCAN 6040 or 7555 series X-ray units
  • Airports requiring automatic secondary diversion without full parallel divest infrastructure
