Tomorrow’s technology today

The ABS 960 is not just a scale … it’s a new weigh of doing
things – a brilliant piece of technology that will revolutionise
airport baggage handling around the globe. Now airports
can have the best of both worlds … a beautifully designed
and built weighing system that also has the ability to
integrate into the entire baggage handling process.

Brilliantly compatible
Right from the early design and development stages of
the ABS 960, one of the main criteria was perfecting easy
installation and integration into existing static and conveyor
scale systems. The result has been both brilliantly successful
and brilliantly simple … the ABS 960 can multi-task to full
capacity immediately, or can be used as a scale only until
the many additional functions are required and accessed at
a later date.
The Atrax ABS 960 Baggage Scale
is a special-purpose scale designed specifically as a universal platform for use in performing baggage check-in
functions for the airline industry. This unit sets the standard in what should be expected from a baggage scale and
can truly be used in a “Fully Integrated” Check-in system.

A new weigh of doing things

Instant information
On the screen. Easy to read and at your fingertips. All the information
you need with pinpoint accuracy. But it’s not just the standard weight
details … the ABS 960 has the amazing ability to analyse, diagnose,
detect and inform, instantly displaying any malfunctions in the
conveyor control process. By letting the operators and the control room
know the exact location of a problem, personnel or servicing can be
directed to the trouble spot immediately, resulting in faster repairs and
less downtime.

Hard wearing, soft to touch

The handsome European design and stainless steel fascia combines
modern sophisticated styling and ergonomics with rugged, robust,
durable construction. The lens is strong, scratch resistant acrylic. The
keys are soft-touch silicone. Lettering is permanently marked into every
key. Everything is at your fingertips on one centralised, compact, single-
panel unit that can be mounted anywhere, saving valuable desk space.
