Zusammenfassung:A threat scanning system may employ disposable flexible baggage containers with a coefficient of friction selected to encourage sliding of the containers past side rails and other baggage. An exemplary system may have a threat scanning machine, a first feeder conveyor having a baggage entrance, a second feeder conveyor substantially parallel to the first feeder conveyor, and a scanner conveyer arranged to receive baggage from the first and second feeder conveyors and to convey baggage to the threat scanning machine, the scanner conveyor having one or more side rails that baggage containers may impact. After baggage is conveyed through the threat scanning machine, the baggage containers may be discarded after a single use.
