VR SOP Training for Airport Baggage Handling Systems

Keep bags flowing and flights on time

BHS networks are complex: conveyors, merge/diverts, tilt-trays, EDS screening and SCADA alarms. Spark builds bespoke VR training that mirrors your layout, PLC/HMI screens, alarm codes and jam-clearing rules—so teams practise safely before entering live airside areas.

Common challenges

  • Jam recovery: safe isolation, obstruction removal and restart sequences.
  • Alarm handling: codes, fault trees and escalation paths.
  • Throughput: merge priorities, recirculation and peak-hour discipline.
  • Safety & compliance: LOTO, airside permits and EDS/ETD protocols.

Our bespoke build approach

  1. Capture SOPs & maps: PFDs, alarm matrices and checklists.
  2. Create scenarios: bag jam, EDS reject loop, PLC comms loss and fire panel events.
  3. Coach in VR: prompts matched to your HMI pages and signage.
  4. Measure: time-to-clear, missed holds and reoccurring faults.

Benefits

  • Faster recovery and fewer delays.
  • Safer interventions in restricted zones.
  • Audit-ready training evidence for operators and regulators.

Why Spark

We replicate your conveyors, screens and rules—no generic modules—so learning transfers to the belt on day one.
