That's a pretty great project, I like it. Is it part of a university class?

I didn't know Vanderlande did airport baggage automation too, I've only seen a little of their parcel systems.

Siemens owns a ridiculous number of companies, but I'm assuming the Siemens you were going to visit was a branch of their Postal, Parcel, & Airport Logistics company. I didn't know there was a Frankfurt site, I work for Siemens in the U.S.

Siemens is Big with a capital B. I keep discovering new subdivisions, most recently their metro rolling stock.

About 40% of Vanderlande business is baggage, 20% parcel, 20% warehouse. The course is only on BHS, so it made sense to visit them. How well do they stack up against Siemens and other competition?
