It is with great pleasure that we announce CLARITY INTEL has been singled out to receive the Digital Forensics Award for 2013, an independent Award programme recognised both in the UK and abroad. This Award is sponsored by the Forensics Industry E-Mag, a forward-thinking publication that created the Award Scheme in order to recognise companies that have made an outstanding contribution to their particular field. As the investigative arm of Forensic Pathways, receiving the Digital Forensics Award 2013 serves as a milestone for Clarity Intel, and forms the final piece of the jigsaw that confirms the Company’s success. Key to securing this Award was the commitment on the part of Clarity Intel to employ a team of highly experienced and diversely skilled professionals, all of whom boast backgrounds in commercial, criminal and civil investigation services, covering disciplines ranging from Business and Financial Intelligence, Forensics, Law and Evidence, Digital Investigation and Forensic Data Recovery/Computer Forensics, as the company’s MD Richard Leary outlined in a recent interview: “Having access to relevant and informative information is key to running a successful business in the modern age.

Having ‘mapped’ over 200 VAT Cases and decisions since 2006, Clarity Intel through its association with Forensic Pathways was recently called upon to provide evidence in a major VAT Case that involved a review of the way in which these cases have previously been investigated: “By using new state-of-the-art investigative practices involving the forensic analysis of large volumes of data, we are in effect able to provide clarity and resolve cases that have hitherto been investigated using old and out-dated techniques.”

Over the past 12 years the company has achieved an enviable reputation in providing Fraud, Due diligence, Asset Tracing, Surveillance, and other Business and Financial Intelligence Services to a diverse range of international companies ranging from Corporations and Multi-nationals, through to Governments, Local Authorities, Banks, Telco’s, Law Firms, private businesses and private citizens; working alongside Lawyers and Counsel in investigatory, discovery and pre-trial preparation work.

For over 26 years, Emmerson Associates has maintained their leading position within the Forensic Science sector by drawing on the vast experience of their dedicated team of Forensic Consultants who provide a wide range of services for clients throughout the UK and abroad, dealing with many serious and high profile cases. Some of their experts are accredited experts for the ICC at The Hague. In a recent interview, Managing Director, Nicola Beckwith-Elliott explained: “Collectively, our forensic experts and accident investigators have many years’ experience within the Government forensic laboratories, as well as Police and private practice. This knowledge enables us to provide reliable and independent forensic science services, as well as acting as Expert Witnesses. A sign of the esteem in which Emmersons experts are held is evidenced by the number of commissions received to re-examine cases previously examined by the Crown’s experts. We review this work and report upon it.” The company can also review forensic findings and provide comments or responses to specific queries raised by instructing solicitors or Queen’s Counsel. “Once instructed, we undertake responsibility for all arrangements; including exhibits transfers, laboratory examinations, contacting the OIC through to making an appointment with the Prosecution Expert.” An interesting knock-on effect of the phenomenal increase in recent years of fraudulent insurance claims is the fact that Emmerson

Associates has seen a vast rise in the number of requests received from insurance companies themselves wishing to instruct an ‘expert’ to investigate the matter and provide a report in order to mitigate or reduce their liabilities. “Many types of evidence can be gleaned with regard to various insurance claims, not solely road traffic matters,” added Nicola. “Our many specialist skills range across the board and include DNA, drugs, alcohol-related cases, document alterations, fingerprints, CCTV and footwear marks. We are therefore able to provide an individually tailored solution to meet your specific forensic needs by using the most suitable expert to achieve the best results possible.” Emmerson Associates also keeps abreast of technology matters and offers forensic analysis of computers and mobile telephones, including cell-site reports and forensic imagery analysis; covering facial, body mapping and height analysis, CCTV footage and enlargement and enhancement of poor quality footage. Now, as part of a continual commitment to extend and develop the range of services it offers, the company is also able to provide surveillance services. Some of the cases we have assisted in this way include:

• CCTV analysis, photography and video

• Vehicle tracking

• Death by dangerous/careless driving

• Commercial theft enquiries

• Locus inspections/scale plans of collision scenes

• Installation of cover/overt camera systems

Having been listed and checked by the English Law Society, Emmerson Associates strives to maintain the high professional standards for which it has become known. It can come as no surprise, therefore, to learn that the company’s scientists boast many accreditations including holding membership of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers, Academy of Experts, Society of Expert Witnesses, The Institute of Traffic Accident Investigators, Sweet & Maxwell, UK Directory of Expert Witnesses, Forensic Science Society and the Royal Society of Chemistry.

• Benefit/fraud investigations and injury/fraud investigations • Marital differences/ASBO harassment/residential disputes Emmerson Associates is one of the few independent forensic companies to offer expert advice covering PIDs (Personal Identification Devices), more commonly known as ‘home curfew tags’ which regard to accidental or deliberate removal. Emmerson Associates also deals with a great many cases involving road traffic matters; providing Expert Witness services in all areas of forensic road collision investigations, analysis, reconstruction and associated evidence in both criminal and civil cases. These include, but are not limited to • Staged collisions • Forensic examination of stolen vehicles • Personal injury claims arising from road traffic collisions • Driver’s hours disputes involving tachograph regulations and route tracing • Forensic examination of keys, tyres, light bulbs, vehicles and components • Alcohol-related cases (breath, blood and urine)

As you would expect from such a quality-conscious operation, all reports and statements prepared by the company are fully compliant with Part 33 Criminal Procedure Rules and Part 35 Civil Procedure Rules.

EPAs new innovative approach to the design and manufacture of EOD cartridges has brought with it many benefits. The products are more reliable, less expensive and easier to ship than currently available cartridges. Ammunition Transportation Ammunition transport is expensive, even the lowest hazard classification for ammunition, has its problems, presenting a significant hazard and danger to anyone within the vicinity, in the event of a fire .Generally, many of the current pack methods fail to reduce this hazard. Recognising this issue very early on EPA began designing and testing a variety packaging designs to allow different natures of ammunition to be shipped with a lower hazard classification.

The pallet is loaded in a conventional manner using standard MoD pallet trays, once loaded the pallet the cage is assembled around the ammunition boxes. Being flat packed it can be economically returned and reused.

number of requests and taken on mission critical contracts for the military sector and consequently Clark masts are now designed to hold high intensity optics and radar units, as well as meeting challenges to provide support for larger transportable equipment. Clark Masts have reacted positively to the challenges of this new sector application and just four years ago developed their product range to include high torsionally stable masts. Previously standard masts offered 1 to 1.5 degrees torsional movement, this new development sees special versions of Clark masts offer an unrivalled +/- 0.1 degree of torsional control for the military sector. With the ongoing design and development of their products, the company use the latest material and manufacturing processes without sacrificing traditional qualities. With an intensive in house design and manufacturing capability, the company are able to control every aspect of production and quality control, and also offer bespoke design services when required. Whilst continually outshining competition in the marketplace, Clark Masts ensure that there is no compromise on the quality of their products.

Details like antenna mounting, guy tensioning systems and safe erection are all key design features that users around the world associate with Clark Masts Clark Masts range of telescopic masts, weighing up to 120kg have the capacity to lift antenna/ surveillance equipment of up to 240kg from 3m to 35m into the air. The proven pedigree of Clark Masts has also seen the WT telescopic mast become the mast of choice for combat radio systems within the British Army since 1960. The PT and WT range has also become a popular choice with police forces, security services, ambulance control and fire fighters in the UK and overseas with a proven reputation for quality, durability and reliable technology. Currently 5.5m WT masts are in use in Afghanistan with over 250 of the systems implemented in theatre as sophisticated optics platforms to assist in mine clearance â&#x20AC;&#x201C; avoiding IEDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

Trailer Masts In addition to the established Model 802, 803 and 804 trailer mounted self contained masts systems. Clark Masts have recently developed a Model 804 trailer based telescopic mast system with semi off road capabilities. Having undergone design and extensive testing in the UK from October 2013, a twin axle variant of the Model 804 trailer will be available for special applications in addition to the single axle variant. Manual Masts Clark Masts PU12 ( Push UP 12m) has been in continual service with the British Army and over ten other armies across the world since the 1970’s and is currently used in tactical situations across many of today’s global conflicts. The PU telescopic mast was first produced in 1972 for a military requirement with a very simple concept as its basis. The first item of design was the cross pin. With any section clamping system it is difficult to check visually whether the mast sections have been secured correctly. With the pin, it is either in or out and one handed locking of the pin makes securing effortless. Large Masts Clark Masts are currently developing a much larger 9 inch base mast. The TM Mast Range will further add to the Clark Masts range of masts which are currently available to customers, of which the 8 inch tube XT Series was previously the largest in diameter. The TM Mast Range will ultimately lift bigger loads, with head load determined by the size of the top tube; the 9 inch base tube product will have the capacity to lift up to 500kg depending on height. Clark Masts are set apart from their industry competitors purely by their attention to design detail. The internal features of their masts are superior to other products on the marketplace and can ensure high performance over long periods of time in excess of 25 years. The company can be described as a “true manufacturer”, manufacturing all Although as a complete unit a sectional mast may be a heavy piece of kit, it is

Supporting Veterans on the Road to Civilian Life John’s troubles started during one of his tours as an Air Defence Gunner in the Royal Artillery. After witnessing five of his colleagues being killed in a terrorist attack on their vehicle he began a downward spiral into post traumatic stress syndrome (PTSD), which ultimately lead to debt, marriage break up and thoughts of suicide. Finally, realising he needed help, John went to the Citizens Advice Bureau who advised him to contact SSAFA. After calling his local branch office, John was allocated a volunteer caseworker, who immediately got on the case and contacted the Royal Artillery Association who helped to clear SSAFA is a charity providing lifelong support to anyone who is serving

Submarine systems as regularly used by the Royal Navy must have air distribution, purification and conditioning systems that function properly 24 hours a day, making submarines habitable for the crew which can be up to 120 strong. The equipment also helps a submarine to maintain stealth – thus minimising the possibility of detection. A major innovation in cooling plants is the development of a navy- suitable compressor using magnetic bearings – instead of conventional ball or roller bearings – The Magnetic Bearing Compressor.

AWARD NEWS The Award Winning

SECURITY INDUSTRY E-MAG AWARD WINNER able to identify risk and advise on investments to build and protect connected interfaces, barriers, laptops and other technologies that are implemented to communicate together, thus avoiding costly oneoff repairs and upgrades. Arke’s investment protection services for cyber security are based on a proven methodology, using applications that are reliable and readily adaptable. The company has developed a framework/model for all cyber defence clients taking into account early research programmes, concept studies, service life of the system and secure, end of life disposal. For UK defence there are two major challenges: • Operational Security - How does Defence ensure its freedom to operate is not eroded by information and communications

With experience spanning over 30 years, Arke sits at the forefront of the development of techniques and tools to assist project decision makers in the Research community, Procurement agencies and the Front Line Commands. The Senior Management team at the Security Industry E Magazine were so impressed with the knowledge and expert services portrayed by Arke Ltd that they were recently delighted to present the company with the much coveted, Cyber Proof Defence System Provider of the Year Award for 2013/14. The Award recognises the range of services and solutions that Arke deliver to a wide and varied client base, protecting and securing against cyber threat on a variety of levels. On receiving the Security Industry E Magazine’s Award, the company’s Managing Director, Paul Jones explained: “Cyber warfare threatens our very way of life; individual and state sponsored cyber attacks are unfortunately becoming increasingly common place. The test is what we are prepared to do about it. Awards such as this recognise the importance of the debate and the contributions that individuals can make towards meeting this threat.” Written by Paul Jones, Managing Director of Arke Ltd, this article contains views and opinions based on his experience of delivering an Open Systems Architectures Value for Money framework and Cost Modelling solution for evaluating high integrity Command, Control, Communications and Computer (C4) systems.

attack both now and in the future? • How does the defence supply chain prevent and covert an on-going cyber invasion of its products and services? To deliver both of these factors requires a significant change, both in the way that Defence specifies its requirements, and the manner in which the Defence industry procures and guarantees its hardware and software performance . Furthermore, the corresponding requirement for UK industry to produce proven cyber-proof defence products will naturally lead to a greater attention focus from those nations and individuals that would benefit from defeating the capability. From a Defence Procurement perspective the increasing use of Commercial ‘Off the Shelf’ (COTS) hardware and software products, particularly those sourced from known cyber threat active nations, may mean that existing ‘known- unknown’ threats may already be present. Given that most Defence equipment has an ‘in-service’ life of around 25 years, future Cyber threat reduction must form part of the through life maintenance strategy; a long term commitment with no reversionary modes. For new systems the incorporation of legally binding cyber proof information and communications security should become a necessary part of the User Requirement and the System Specification. This shift towards security based procurement is likely to drive the need

These costs must be understood early to avoid future cost surprises and consequential adverse public scrutiny. As one of the outcomes of its Strategic Defence and Security Review in 2010 the Government put in place a £650 million, four-year National Cyber Security Programme (NCSP). This funding, intended to transform the Government’s response to cyber threats has been allocated to those departments and agencies that have key roles to play. Subsequently, in 2011 the UK Government published a white paper ‘The UK Cyber Security Strategy’ which set out the UK strategy for ‘Protecting and promoting the UK in a digital world’. The plans and programmes to deliver the objectives are ‘work in progress’ and some commentators are already beginning to question the wisdom of government sponsorship and leadership of a topic in which the politicians have only a marginal understanding of the long term technical and commercial implications; the allocation of only £650m is possibly the measure of this. Put simply, the cyber threat canvas may be too big, too diverse and too dynamic for individual UK Defence and Other Government Departments (OGD) to develop a unified long term UK strategy. The Need for International Standards If the UK adopts a national strategy for addressing Cyber-attack and its elimination how can it ensure the integrity and performance of a Defence system that is in part procured from allies and partner nations is not compromised. This problem is analogous to a manufacturing production quality assurance and control system. If you do not specify

which system lifecycles are assessed not just on current and future military capability grounds but by the degree in which they can resist or avoid future cyber threat. A recently developed Dstl Whole Life Cost Model MOSAIC (Modular Open Systems Architecture Integrated Cost) has been designed to be expandable and could provide the ability to assess the advantages and disadvantages of not just embracing future changes military threat but also cyber threat as part of a Whole Life investment approach; Arke has supported Dstl by developing the MOSAIC model and methodology on their behalf. “The UK through its defence research, engineering and manufacturing

Develop Your Forensic Expertise Forensics Europe Expo 2014 Conference Themes Over the last decade, forensic science and digital forensics have experienced some rapid advancements and are now an integral part of the criminal investigation process across the world. With law enforcement becoming increasingly reliant on the most innovative forensic techniques, the demand has risen and created an expectation that forensics is the panacea to solve crime. At the same time, rapid advances in DNA now mean that scientists can extract evidence from even the most minute samples efficiently and accurately. While this increase in demand is a welcomed development, the reliance on forensic science has created new pressures on the forensic industry to meet the growth in demand and constantly improve best practice in line with limited budgets across public and private sectors.

Digital forensics are also experiencing an extreme rise in use to help solve crimes meaning that investigators and experts must stay one step ahead to find new ways of extracting and analysing the data from digital devices that are often robust and can withstand legal analysis. The conference will showcase latest advances in both digital forensics and forensic innovations focusing on next generation techniques and technology. The conference streams will use a series of presentations, discussions and workshops to highlight the important role that practitioners, academics and industry play in ensuring the momentum and progress of the past decade continues to develop and evolve.

Forensics Europe Expo will host two high level conference streams Forensic Innovations – Past, Present and Future

Digital Forensics

Innovation in forensic science is a true phenomenon that has been embraced by law enforcers, academics and industry professionals across the world in a way that could not have been predicted even a decade ago. Such advancements have transformed the evidential potential that is now available to investigators that has enabled them to secure successful prosecutions – often years after a crime has been committed. The conference will be a celebration of these advancements, examining them in detail and debating present and future challenges that will occur as a result.

The unprecedented proliferation in new technology over the past five years has led to the development of digital forensics as a scientific discipline. The fact that almost all of us conduct our lives in the ‘virtual’ world on mobile phone and computers through social networking sites and the internet in general has presented new challenges for law enforcers and corporate investigations. It has also led to an increase in academic courses and research devoted to this exciting new area of science. This unique event brings together leading law enforcers, academics and industry representatives to debate the current issues around digital forensics and to look at how this exciting body of work will progress in future years as technology continues to develop and advance.

The development and durability of UWS’ products rely on a highly trained and professional workforce, familiar with the demands of precision manufacturing. Upon completion, products are rigorously and comprehensively tested for continuity, insulation and resistance. In-house improvements to testing facilities have seen the introduction of the revolutionary DIT-MCO 9000 point Analyser. Capable of testing continuity, insulation and isolation, the unit is fully mobile with the ability to test assemblies up to 40ft in length. Case Study: AgustaWestland UWS’ proven ability is shown through the MCSP program which is set to be completed in March 2014: AgustaWestland, the Anglo-Italian helicopter company, is a leading global operator in the vertical lift market, and Universal Wiring Systems are proud 8

to have developed a long-term partnership with them. This began with Universal Wiring Systems providing a small electrical offload capacity, which has developed into a full capability loom supplier status, a relationship that has resulted in the award of the Merlin Capability Sustainment Programme (MSCP). The partnership has been built on sustained performance levels, delivering reduced manufacturing times and continual improvement programmes. Recent Developments May 2013 saw the company re-brand further broadening Universal Engineering’s scope and profile. Following a successful 3 year period of growth the decision was made to re-name Universal’s electrical wiring activities. “We are very proud of the growth we’ve experienced during the past 3 years and we feel that re-branding our electrical wiring capabilities to be the next step as the business evolves” explains Andy Routledge, Operations Manager of Universal Wiring systems. “Re-branding aligns strongly with our vision for the future, by increasing market exposure and brand identity we give ourselves the best possible opportunities for growth, securing the future of the business”. The newly re-branded Universal Wiring Systems was presented to the industry at the Paris Air Show in June. Universal Wiring Systems exhibited for the first time at the Paris Air Show and have already committed to attend the next one. The company met 124 people from a wide variety of organisations and generated 11 solid leads.

Andy Routledge, operations manager and Gareth Moore, business development manager, manned the stand and introduced the company to the industry. Gareth Moore commented: “Our original objective was simply to increase awareness of our capability in manufacturing the most complex of electrical harnesses. However we have generated 11 strong leads from the Show and will be following these up in the coming weeks. This is just the kick-start we needed.” In 2013, UWS also exhibited for the first time at DSEI, the world’s largest fully integrated defence and security exhibition, and have already committed to attend the next one. UWS’ objectives were to generate 10 new sales leads, set-up six meetings during the show (in advance), build its database by growing the number by 40 new contacts, build brand awareness by engaging directly with 100 industry professional, develop new markets with leads generated in four new sectors and gather intelligence on competitors. It met these objectives and reached the new potential markets of marine and land systems. Andy Routledge said: “DSEI was a fantastic opportunity to showcase our capability to the world. We had a brilliant time and were able to explain in detail the services we provide.” “It was good to be able to demonstrate our competences and widen exposure to new markets.” “We have achieved all our objectives and have kept up the momentum from the Paris Air Show in increasing awareness of Universal Wiring Systems’ capability in manufacturing the most complex of electrical harnesses. The 11 strong leads that were generated will be followed up in the coming weeks.” A new ERP system will be launched in early 2014. The EpiCore business management system for front end and manufacturing will be integrated in to UWS facilities within the next 6-12 months and will bring with it improved capabilities for the design of electrical harnesses and laser marking.

Universal Engineering as a group are continually developing their systems and capabilities to keep up with an ever-changing industry. The company is adaptable to the needs of the aerospace, defence and security sectors whilst adhering to its lead principles of reducing non value added effort and providing a reliable service on time and within budget.

EpiCore is suitable for electronic/mechanics in terms of data collection and features an integrated bar coding capability. It is compatible with all Microsoft systems and can be viewed through not only, Outlook, Excel and Word but also MS Project which is UWS’ software package of choice. UWS will be utilising tablets as production aids, drawings/designs can also be viewed in real time at all stages of the process, thus enabling changes to be made without interrupting manufacture and delivery times.

ement of Prosthetics Many of the prosthetic services across the country are run by outside contractors, such as Otto Bock Healthcare. Prosthetists work alongside the NHS multi-disciplinary team (MDT) in the regional centres. Otto Bock Healthcare also provides rehabilitation services for private patients nationally and has had the privilege of being the Paralympic service providers since 1998. For most patients with a new amputation, their first contact with the prosthetic service will involve an initial assessment. This happens once the initial amputation wound has healed. This assessment is holistic and encompasses several areas including their current condition, their medical and social history and their future goals. Losing a limb has been compared to losing a close member of the family. The counsellorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role is to spend time with the patient if they would like to talk about their experiences. During the assessment the Prosthetist will then decide on the best type of prosthetic limb prescription that will meet the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activity level and meet their clinical needs. Most amputees can do what they want to do they just do it differently. Each prosthesis is designed and built to suit the individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s specific lifestyle. Patients with an arm or hand amputation, function is often more important e.g. what the prosthesis can do, hold, grasp etc. After the assessment, it is normal for the prosthetist to begin work on the prosthesis. This starts with a plaster cast, or computerized model being taken of the residual limb or stump as many patients call it. All patients are different shapes and sizes. Each socket is custom made for

each socket comfortable. Over the centuries materials and prosthetic techniques have changed. The ancient Egyptians made prostheses from leather and wood, whilst Romans used bronze. Today most prostheses whether they are for patients with low, moderate or high mobility are made from materials such as carbon fibre, composites and titanium. Some joints are even controlled by on-board computers. Modern prosthetic joints are now so complex and mimic anatomical joints so well that they have to be aligned using a laser. A good example of the advances in prosthetic components is the microprocessor range of knee joints made by Otto Bock. The C-leg and Genium knees manufactured by Otto Bock are programmed with computer software via a blue tooth connection from a lap top. The patient is asked to do a variety of exercises including walking down stairs and slopes. As the patient walks the resistance and settings can be manipulated on the computer until the patient feels comfortable. The setting are then saved.

Prosthetists also work closely with patients to support them to carry out sport and leisure activities. Specialist limbs may range from simple legs to allow a person to shower or swim, through to competing in international sport such as running, rowing, cycling etc. Restoring â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;normalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; movement and dexterity to an upper limb amputee via a prosthesis is, at the present time is more difficult.

As in slotted motors the permanent magnets in slotless servomotors are fixed to the rotor. However a slotless stator is built without teeth. Motor windings are wrapped around a temporary mould and then encapsulated to keep them in place. Eliminating the teeth yields many benefits. Benefits of Slotless Motors Higher Torque: A slotless motors redesigned stator allows the rotor to be significantly larger, because torque increases proportionally to rotor diameter. Torque from a given slotless motor is significantly higher than that from a similarly sized traditional slotted motor. Due to the absence of teeth, the area available for windings is also greater – which further increases torque. More specifically torque at a given speed can be increased by up to 25% compared to a slotted motor.

In fact, precise servo turning and filtering, which can be difficult to achieve, may not be required with a slottless motor. Better Stiffness: A rotor with a larger diameter has greater stiffness because torque increases with rotor diameter and a higher torque motor responds faster to any displacement from the commanded position. The torque displacement curve is steeper. Higher efficiency: All of the above traits boost the efficiency by up to 25% over slotted motors. Drawbacks of slotless motors Despite their benefits slottless motors have their drawbacks and are therefore not suited to every application.

AWARD NEWS

SECURITY INDUSTRY E-MAG AWARD WINNER

2012

Gains Recognition with Prestigious Award Under the umbrella of parent company Herbert Engineering Group, Cambridgeshire-based HERBERT SYSTEMS has achieved an impressive reputation over the past 40 years for the design and manufacture of a wide range of superbly engineered airport and logistic baggage and parcel handling systems, designed around the evolving operational needs of its’ customers. Thanks to a continual commitment to research and development of innovative handling and logistic technology, the Company is able to provide a fresh approach to existing cabin baggage handling challenges, as well as developing systems for the fast changing future of baggage handling and security checkpoints. Therefore, it comes as no surprise to learn Herbert Systems has been singled out as this year’s recipient of the coveted AIRPORT HANDLING SPECIALIST OF THE YEAR AWARD 2013, which was recently presented by a representative of Security Industry E-Mag at a ceremony held at Herbert Systems’ premises. A totally independent Award Programme recognised both in this country and abroad, this Award Scheme was created in order to recognise those businesses and individuals that have made an outstanding

contribution to their particular field. Security Industry E-Mag is always keen to bring attention to those who are providing a product or service that stands out from the crowd and deserves to be appreciated not only by its’ readers, but also by a wider audience. Not every company can walk away with one of these accolades, that have become the hallmark of success, but those that do all emerge from the process more successful; with many having gone on to become acknowledged leaders in the marketplace. An established family business, Herbert Systems takes pride in adhering to traditional values such as reliability, integrity and excellence, as part of the truly customer-orientated service it provides, as Jo Herbert the company’s General Manager outlined in a recent interview: “Key to our success has been our philosophy to provide individually tailored solutions that will not only meet, but in many cases, exceed the customer’s expectations. Coupled with this, we aim to ensure the client reaps the maximum benefit from their investment in our innovative handling technology which enables sustainability, together with improved efficiencies and minimum maintenance costs.”

Last year marked the Company’s 40th anniversary and the launch of a number of innovative new products across all sectors:

keep clean and has improved the look of the machine in these highly visible areas.

Key to securing this Award was the launch of the Company’s revolutionary TRS (Automatic Tray Return System), which is certainly causing a stir within the marketplace:

A new hard wearing and easily cleaned PVC capping has also been added to the customer facing edges of the TRS; with the divestment area now beneﬁting from a solid top, with rollers protruding, to help alleviate items falling through rollers reducing anxiety for the passengers.

Specifically designed for Airport Security check points, modular and fixed Conveyer Systems, Baggage orientation equipment, together with simulation and de–scrambling systems, the Herbert Systems’ TRS speeds up airport security checks, significantly reduces capital cost, removes manual handling of trays by staff and has a very positive impact on passenger queuing and stress levels. Since its’ launch, a number of enhancements have been made to the TRS Tray Return System to improve aesthetics, functionality, ease of use and installation. A new modular control system has enabled a true “Plug and Play” concept to speed up installation, also making it a simple process onto which you can add further modules to change the configuration in the future. The tray dispenser and reclaimer have both been remodelled and now feature a very hard wearing laminate top, which is much easier to

Partnering TRS is the company’s eVelocity which brings new, unparalleled value-added capabilities to screening operations, reshaping the checkpoint process to address present and future challenges and requirements. Streamlining Security Screening with eVelocity is an outstanding new concept now being marketed by Herbert Systems to compliment the TRS. The partnership brings together a unique system to enhance security activities whilst providing a platform for ‘real-time’ management information. The system can be conﬁgured to allow screening staff to be located remotely away from the security area allowing them to concentrate fully. All the x-ray data from any number of checkpoints is fed into a single network, where the images can be analysed by security screeners and any suspect baggage immediately identiﬁed.

Following its launch at London Stansted the innovative TRS Tray Return System, has now been installed at Stavanger Sola Airport in Norway and Dubai Airports. John Farrow, Head of Terminal at Stansted Airport, said: “The innovative Automatic Tray Return System (Herbert TRS) we’ve introduced here at London Stansted utilises technology more effectively to reduce the manual handling of passengers’ bags and supersedes the previous labour-intensive system with an efﬁcient automatic one. On-going feedback from passengers and staff has helped modify the prototype and deliver the system that’s now in operation.” Six TRS have been installed to replace Stavanger Sola’s manual system for handling cabin baggage at the security checkpoint, which involved the time consuming and labour intensive transfer of trays by trolley. Stavanger Airport’s operator, Avinor plan to use the TRS to improve throughput, enhance passenger and staff experience and reduce costs. Meanwhile, Dubai International Airport is having 116 TRS installed, through distribution partners I. O. Systems, to speed passenger throughput, reduce queuing and enable security staff to work more efﬁciently. They were faced with the challenge of growing passenger numbers and queues forming around the security checkpoint area. Having seen the Stansted operation, Dubai was targeting 300 passengers per hour throughput minimum, but the Herbert TRS has averaged 400 passengers per hour, during an extended trial period running on live passengers, well above expectations and with minimum maintenance and downtime. Andy Dowe, Herbert Systems’ Business Development Manager added: “By replacing a manual system with the TRS automatic system, we can eliminate the need for staff to lift stacks of trays. Each tray, as it reaches the end of the line, is automatically returned to the start of the line and is presented to the passenger as he or she arrives at the checkpoint. This means staff don’t need to handle trays, they arrive as required for passengers and the staff can concentrate on the security elements of their role – and are not beset with manual handling issues.”

Singulation System

90 Transfer System

Other innovations recently launched by the company include its’ Pathfinda Vision a new baggage and parcel alignment system specifically developed to enable increased throughput by providing the more accurate baggage and parcel alignment needed for smaller screening tunnels. “Whether you are looking for purpose-made Conveyors, DeScrambling Systems, Separation Systems & Sorters, Pick & Place, Metal Detecting & Vision Systems, Tray Handling and De-Nesting/ Restacking systems, we have the capability to design and manufacture a solution to meet your specific needs that will perform faultlessly and efficiently.“ Receiving the AIRPORT HANDLING SPECIALIST OF THE YEAR AWARD 2013 is a milestone for HERBERT SYSTEMS and forms the final piece of the jigsaw that confirms the Company’s success, as well as acting as a seal of approval to prospective clients. Commenting on receiving this Award Jo went on to say: “We are delighted to be recognised in the security industry with this award, it means a great deal to us. We are extremely proud of our products and the solutions they provide for our customers needs. This award reflects all the hard work and commitment from our highly skilled team throughout the year”.
