- Combined detection technologies — including
Z Backscatter™, Transmission, high-energy transmission, and Radioactive Threat Detection - provide the highest level of detection in the industry - Z Backscatter technology — pioneered and perfected at AS&E — for photo-like X-ray images revealing the threats that competitive systems miss, such as explosives, plastic weapons, and drugs
- "Solutions approach" supports seamless integration into multi-tiered inspection programs, with multiple configurations — mobile, relocatable and fixed-site — to meet your specific requirements
AS&E's Cargo and Vehicle inspection systems are engineered to provide security personnel with an effective means of detection without disrupting the flow of commerce.
AS&E uses the most advanced technologies in the industry to deliver X-ray inspection systems that can detect a multitude of threats and contraband, including:
- Illegal Drugs
- Illegal Immigrants
- Explosives, including car and truck bombs
- Radioactive Threats, including nuclear devices and dirty bombs
- Smuggled goods, such as alcohol, tobacco products, and other legal goods smuggled to evade duties (trade fraud)
- Plastic and metal weapons
- Shielding to conceal radioactive materials
These systems can inspect cars, vans, and trucks, as well as palletized cargo, and air and sea cargo containers. We offer our systems in a variety of configurations to give customers maximum flexibility, safety, and utility when implementing security solutions.
AS&E's Comprehensive Family of Cargo and Vehicle Inspection Systems:
Z Backscatter™ Van (ZBV™): The most maneuverable, versatile and successful cargo and vehicle screening system on the market, ZBV is built into a commercially available delivery van and offers rapid, drive-by Z Backscatter imaging.
ZBV™ Military Trailer: is a rugged X-ray screening system built onto a standard 5-ton military trailer.
MobileSearch™ HE (High Energy) system: New mobile, high-energy cargo and vehicle inspection system offering detailed inspection with a combination of transmission and backscatter technologies, plus flexible scan modes for the added versatility of the ZBV system.
Z Portal® system: Cargo and vehicle screening system offers high-throughput, drive-through, multi-view screening for cars, vans, and their cargo with Z Backscatter imaging. The system is safe for drivers and passengers to remain in their vehicle during screening.
Sentry™ Portal system: New advanced, high-throughput, high-penetration, drive-through inspection system that offers excellent image quality at scan speeds of up to 12kph.
OmniView™ Gantry: Cargo and vehicle inspection system with high-energy X-ray transmission inspection for high-penetration into complex cargo and dense objects - up to 16 inches (400 mm) of steel - without requiring an exterior building or heavy shielding.
Z Gantry™ system: Cargo and vehicle screening system offers bi-directional, multi-view Z Backscatter scanning by moving on rails for screening cargo and vehicles. The Z Gantry is ideal for high-traffic locations with space constraints and is extremely safe for operators, cargo, and the environment.
