Scanner launched

The company is now working on a scanner that can more than double the rate at which containers are scanned.

Smiths Detection is working on a new product that can more than double the rate at which containers are scanned. The new scanner is being developed for the CORE (Consistently Optimized Resilient Secure Global Supply-Chains) European Research Project.

Smiths Detection has launched a low-energy X-ray scanner to meet increasing market demand for a system best suited to detecting explosives, drugs, stowaways and contraband hidden in cars, light motor vehicles and minibuses.

Security solutions specialist Smiths Detection has received a multi-million Euro order from Nigeria for its dual view, high energy X-ray container scanner, which includes a state-of-the-art material discrimination system.

Smiths Detection has won an order from the German Federal Ministry of Finance (BMF) to provide advanced high-energy X-ray systems for mobile Customs checkpoints to be delivered by the end of 2011.
