Smiths Detection has announced that it will supply SDX 6040 X-ray inspection systems to a number of major cruise lines.

With thousands of people and large quantities of cargo coming onboard, screening systems are
vital in helping detect weapons, explosives, drugs and other prohibited items hidden in luggage
or supplies.

  • Organic stripping and enhancement modes, provide superior discrimination between organic and inorganic materials, that are critical for the precise detection of explosives, drugs and other contraband
  • The systems high throughput capability ensures that large volumes of luggage can be screened quickly and efficiently, minimising delays and maintaining smooth operations
  • Its advanced detection system provides a complete 100% view of every item, eliminating blind spots and significantly enhancing security
