Two colleagues who traded expertise in a remarkable reversal of roles are urging others to make the move from industry to instructing and train the engineers of the future.
As a workshop supervisor at Daifuku Logan in Hull, Matt Shackleton relished the task of passing on his skills to apprentices including Sean Edwards, who at the time was a young learner from Humberside Engineering Training Association.
But Matt’s long-term aim was to join the team at HETA, and when Sean got there first, he remembered his former instructor and gave him the advice to help him make the move.
Matt is older by six years, but it was Sean who took the training route first after his potential was spotted by Sarah Smith, HETA’s former workshop manager in Hull, as he completed his apprenticeship and a BSc in engineering management.
Sean said: “Sarah persuaded me to become a mechanical instructor. It’s very different – a lot more about managing people. You need management and communication skills and you need to be able to understand the young people. Matt taught me well. He always had time for people and he understood what we need to do.”
It was only a matter of time before Matt took the next step, and he found Sean a willing source of encouragement. Cathy Bourne, HR Manager at HETA, is now looking for other engineers to shadow the teaching staff with a view to making the switch.
Cathy said: “We are always looking for skilled engineers who want to become teachers and there is no one better to advise them than the instructors we have here who have come from industry.
“It’s not for everybody but there are great opportunities at our sites in Hull, Scunthorpe and Stallingborough for people who can develop the management and communication skills. It’s very rewarding work and we offer attractive terms and conditions including generous leave entitlement, pension and healthcare. The country needs more engineers and it also needs more people to train them.”
Matt, a fabrication and welding instructor, said: “I knew very early that this was something I wanted to do. My own instructor was a big influence on me and I found myself telling the learners the same stories. I wanted to be able to tell learners what employers are looking for such as time-keeping, enthusiasm, other employability skills.”
Lee Sutton, an electrical instructor, joined the ranks at HETA after spending nine years on domestic, commercial and industrial work with accompany in Hull and then four years on fitting and maintenance at a shipyard.
He said: “It’s good to see when people pick skills up, do things properly and put their training to good practice. There are some very clever learners here and it’s surprising how quick and intelligent they are. They can head off on a really good career path from here.”
The new Hull training centre which HETA opened in August 2018 houses a working environment which is a big improvement on the previous workshops at Sutton Field industrial estate.
Matt said: “We have the space and the facilities to fabricate a lot more things and create more real-world scenarios. It’s very similar to being in a company and I would recommend it to others in industry. The transition to education is a big one but there are a lot of people who can help.
“Sean gave me some good insight about what it’s like being an instructor at HETA and now we are both passing on our knowledge to the learners. I am at a stage in my life where I can still remember what it was like being 16, giving the learners they respect they deserve. They make an adult decision to come here and we treat them as adults.”
Sean added: “Matt adapted to the role of instructor straight away and he’s really good – he has a lot of respect from the learners. He helped me a lot when I was at Daifuku Logan and I advised him about making the move to become an instructor, but there’s nothing I need to tell him about welding!”

Daifuku Airport Technologies has won inter airport’s InterTerminal award 2019 for its visualization and simulation software, Sym3.
Implemented in airport operations globally, the Sym3 Operator visualizes a 3D rendering of the baggage handling system (BHS), providing complete visibility across all aspects of the system in real time.
Created specifically for use across all integrated systems in the BHS, Sym3 provides an end-to-end SCADA/maintenance diagnostic system (MDS).
State-of-the-art features enable users to accurately track bags in addition to monitoring the status of hardware live. Superior functionality supports operators and managers to filter, search and highlight individual bags in the BHS based on a range of criteria including barcodes/PAX, carrier, flight number, EDT and make-up destination.
The announcement comes soon after the release of Sym3 V8, which can view and access data on any device via the web interface and crucially identify potential bags at risk – reducing levels of misconnected baggage and system downtime. This means that informed critical decisions can be made on-the-go, with complete visibility to all stakeholders.
A game-changer for operations teams is the ability for regular training and process improvements. Sym3 automatically records the last 48 hours of data, enabling staff to review historical footage for troubleshooting failures, modifying processes and staff training.
The software’s open interface and scripting capabilities make possible a single seamless integration with third-party software, including computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS), CCTV systems and document management systems.

Paris, August 19, 2019.  Daifuku Airport Technologies (ATec) manufacturer and integrator of baggage handling systems recently signed the contract for the extension work of the baggage control room of terminal 2 at Marseille Provence airport.
With 9.4 million passengers, Marseille-Provence airport (AMP) recorded a new traffic record in 2018.
From the perspective of growth and development of low-cost carrier traffic activity, Marseille Provence airport has undertaken major infrastructure modernization and extension projects.
It is in this context that Daifuku ATec will initially install the Baggage Handling System (BHS) to replace the existing system.
Our solution has been judged by Marseille Provence Airport as being technically and financially the most interesting: it will incorporate new standard 3 machines and will allow the airport to increase its reception capacity.
Daifuku ATec had already been entrusted with the project to replace the four baggage delivery carousels at Hall 4 in 2017.

Through collaboration with its Group companies, along with installing BHS and related equipment to over 500 airports around the world, boasting the world’s top market share, the Daifuku Group also supplies airport operation and maintenance services.
New Chitose Airport’s installation will consist of a variety of conveyor types, the latest camera-based barcode scanners and advanced software for tracking and monitoring baggage during transport. Compared to the conventional system, the new installation will bring improved bag tag scanning accuracy and enable 3D real-time tracking of baggage, preventing instances of late or lost baggage, which is expected to reduce management costs and increase passenger satisfaction.
In recent years, economic growth of developing countries has led to a boom in the movement of people around the world, with global air passenger numbers, which reached 4.1 billion people in 2017, anticipated to reach 8.2 billion by 2037, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA). In response to this, there is expected to be increased demand for system renewals and expansions, along with investment in airport equipment and facilities that offer traveler-friendly experiences.
Within Japan, overseas tourist numbers (Japan National Tourism Organization) tripled over a five-year period, rising from 8.36 million in 2012 to 28.60 million in 2017, with this expected to further increase in the future.
Setting the installation to New Chitose Airport as a key example within the domestic market, Daifuku will continue to promote installations of state-of-the-art baggage handling system within Japanese airports.

Tokyo (Japan), Sep 20 (ANI): Exhibition of largest logistics companies in Asia, &#8220;Logis-Tech Tokyo 2018&#8221; was held in Tokyo.
In the exhibition, &#8220;DAIFUKU&#8221; which develops world level logistics system technology for material handling was attracting the attention of many visitors.
At &#8220;DAIFUKU&#8221; booth, Check-in counter like that at the airport was built, and the latest product of &#8220;SELF BAG DROP (SBD)&#8221; was announced. During departure process, passenger first performs facial recognition, operates device, and receives package tag.
The passenger puts the baggage on a dedicated conveyor.
The technology to read barcode and structure makes it easy for passengers to place luggage.
And it is contained in the technology cultivated in the operation of material handling in factories and warehouses.
Many airport operators around the world are planning to introduce “Smart airport” system that utilizes AI technology, such as digitizing, shortening the waiting time for automation, providing timely information to passenger, and reducing the trouble of baggage loss.
This theater is “4D BAGGAGE JOURNEY” to introduce the technology of “Daifuku” in the airport.
Along with the trajectory of luggage flowing through the airport, visitors can learn about material handling technology.
This technology which cannot be usually seen becomes more familiar through &#8220;SELF BAG DROP&#8221;.
The high technology of &#8220;DAIFUKU&#8221; with its accuracy, efficiency, and swiftness will contribute to our daily lives and will become more familiar in the future.

Daifuku introduces Advanced Airport Facility

Daifuku is considering raising its earnings guidance for the medium term, according to Hojo, 69, who plans to step down as president at the end of next month. The need for more semiconductors in cars and robots, and consumers’ growing appetite for e-commerce and big data can only mean more demand for Daifuku’s machinery, he says, while China looms as a possible new market for expansion.
Few outside of the chip industry will have heard of Daifuku, whose gear is found in cutting-edge Intel Corp. plants and helps Amazon.com Inc. move stuff around its cavernous warehouses. The Osaka, Japan-based company also supplies baggage-handling systems for the world’s biggest <a href="http://www.daifuku.com/us/~/Media/daifukucom/company/resourcelibrary/brochure/pdf/Webb_Airport_Systems.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">airports</a> from Chicago’s O’Hare to Beijing and London.
Daifuku was one of the biggest stock gainers in 2017 among its peer group of machinery makers as it racked up <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/terminal/P3VDBL6TTDS0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">better-than-expected</a> results. It climbed more than 1,200 percent over the past five years to reach a record in January, pushing Daifuku’s market value to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/6383:JP" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">1 trillion yen</a> ($9.2 billion) for the first time before paring gains amid a global equities selloff.
<h3>What issues determine the decision on profit targets?</h3>
Masaki Hojo: Price gains in DRAM are slowing. On the other hand, the application for semiconductors continues to expand beyond smartphones and traditional computers to automated cars, among other things. We are really benefiting from the good environment we’re in, but we also have to be cautious and be flexible. We want to see how the company does in the new fiscal year and think about how much should be, if needed, revised and how much the operating margin target could be raised.
<h3>How is the outlook on demand from China?</h3>
We’re not seeing it weaken. We want to see how things go for the next three years though. For now, we don’t expect to see any extreme drops. China is a market we’ve never seen before. Basically demand has been from Taiwan, South Korea and top makers in the U.S. But China has set a policy to produce the chips it consumes within the country, which means more and more aggressive investments of equipment from both existing companies and newcomers in the industry.
<h3>What about demand from e-commerce companies?</h3>
Amazon is actively investing and we’re supplying machines that are profitable. In Japan retailers like <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/9843:JT" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Nitori Holdings Co.</a>, which sells furniture, is investing big to set up new distribution centers for operational efficiency. In China, companies like <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/ALIBABZ:CH" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.</a> and <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/700:HK" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tencent Holdings Ltd.</a> are investing. South Korea will catch on, taking cues from Japan, and while it will take time for India’s e-commerce market to develop, it’ll be a big market once it does.
<h3>Why is Daifuku’s machinery important for e-commerce?</h3>
Nowadays, there’s a complete overlap between information-technology and distribution. Distribution is about how accurately merchandise could be delivered to customers. In Japan, retailers are investing in distribution centers also to solve problems &#8212; like not having enough human resources to deliver goods.
<h3>What’s your take on Daifuku’s stock price?</h3>
It’s normal for retail investors and funds who acknowledge our company’s earnings growth to take an interest in Daifuku’s shares, and I welcome that. But looking at the recent ups and downs in the stock market, it feels like looking at a computerized game. The way we view stock prices is within the boundaries of common knowledge: Those with good earnings rise and those without fall. In that sense, trading 36 to 38 times their estimated earnings feels overbought to me. [Daifuku <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/6383:JP" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">trades</a> at a ratio of 31.]
<h3>What is Daifuku’s next step?</h3>
We have to be able to come up with various suggestions for clients. It’s not simply going to be about a hardware or software but about providing a high value-added system equipped with cutting-edge technology. Otherwise, we can’t be a real champion. Health care, biotechnology, agriculture are among the industries Daifuku could tap. We’re going to try and see if a type of power-supply machines used in chip factories could be put to use in the biotechnology industry.

Baggage-Systems giant Daifuku challenges market expectations yet again

Baggage-systems giant challenges market expectations

The baggage system compromises of 6 check-in islands, each with 20 check-in desks, 18 arrivals carousels, 6 transfer baggage lines, 4 manual coding lines, 48 EBS lanes and 8 screening lines. The screening lines have 6 automatic MV Xray machines and 4 automatic CT Xray machines with additional explosive trace detection and level 5 baggage resolution areas.
Baggage identification is realised by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID ) integrated seamlessly into all systems, this coupled with the end to end data tracking is reaching identification rates far beyond what is possible with standard optical systems. Each tilt tray sorter chute is fitted with a final RFID based bag information display system which automatically reads the bag as the bag is loaded into the unit loading device (ULD).
Construction of the 220,000m2 Terminal started in June 2013 at an estimated cost of 40 billion yuan ($6.1 billion), and project delivery included a new runway, new control tower and a transportation hub connecting the airport to the city with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuhan-Xiaogan_Intercity_Railway" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">intercity railway</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_2,_Wuhan_Metro" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">metro line</a>.
Starting from August 31st, all flights from T1 (international, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan) and T2 (domestic) were moved to Terminal 3, which is expected to accommodate 35 million passengers annually by 2020.
“We are delighted with the new system, its leading edge on time, on target delivery is a testament to the excellent working relationships and dialogue we have with the airport, the design teams for the terminal building, right down to all the sub-contracting companies since the projects conception” stated Ron Osborne, Managing Director of Daifuku Logan Ltd. “We very much look forward to working closely with the airport on any of its future BHS project requirements”.

MITs are mobile robots that provide a customised solution for optimal flexibility and improved workspace efficiency. MITs are a quiet, safe, and scalable approach to the checked bag reconciliation area. MITs also offer a “goods to person” ergonomics approach by delivering bags directly to TSA agents, eliminating lifting, twisting or turning. Bags are searched directly while on the MIT’s stainless-steel surface and routed automatically back to the appropriate conveyor system after inspection.
“As part of our continued commitment to lead the evolution of the airport experience, Dallas Love Field is always looking for newer, better and faster technology to reach new heights in terms of economy of scale. We successfully hosted an influx of travelers during the Thanksgiving holiday, and with our new Mobile Inspection Table robotic technology, were able to process a record number of bags with greater efficiency than ever before. The new system and our dedicated partners at TSA enabled us to have a smooth and secure screening process, enhancing the overall customer experience at Dallas Love Field” says Tim Smith, Logistics and Systems Manager at Dallas Love Field Airport.
