It is the belief of many analysts of the security establishment that the world is now being faced with “asymmetric warfare,” in which means such as illegal-trafficking, contrabands, terrorism, and biological warfare are being used to attack a country’s national interests. Concerns over surprise, deceptive, and increasingly diverse threats coming from within a country, which may have appeared non-threatening not long ago, appear to confirm the judgment that the threats of the future are far more complex and lethal than those witnessed in the past.
At EG&G Middle East, we adapt technology to meet high-level challenges, and provide a full-spectrum of intelligent, flexible and scalable solutions for the inspection and detection of bombs, explosives, explosive devices and other forms of contrabands.
Cargo/Truck X-Ray Inspection Systems
EG&G’s range of Cargo X-Ray Inspection Systems provide Customs and Security services with a fast, efficient, safe and cost-effective method of inspecting large volumes of cargo. State-of-the-art x-ray emitters, detectors, image processing and computer controlled conveyor systems are combined in custom-designed facilities that revolutionizes the routine cargo inspection process. The technology those systems incorporate can be used in a variety of applications to suit the requirements of cargo inspection in border crossing, seaports and airports.
Cargo X-Ray Inspection Systems are an invaluable tool to uncover banned goods and items such as weapons, ammunition, explosives, drugs and others. By utilizing state of the art imaging and image processing technologies, customs and security inspectors can easily identify smuggled goods and contraband such as arms, ammunition, drugs and fraudulently manifested goods even if hidden in dense cargo or concealed compartments.
EG&G ME develops a wide range of cargo x-ray systems to suit different customer needs. Those include High-Energy systems suitable for inspecting dense cargo loaded onto trucks passing through border crossings or into sea containers at seaports. Medium-Energy systems are also suitable for inspecting loaded trucks at border crossings, buses, vans and passenger cars as well as sea containers at seaports. Low-Energy systems, however, are more suitable for inspecting air cargo containers and pallets at airports.
EG&G ME is the first designer and manufacturer for Cargo/Trucks X-Ray inspection systems in the Arabian Gulf Countries, the Levant region, Iraq and Yemen. Also, EG&G Middle East is L-3 Communications Security and Detection Systems distributor and system integrator for the region. The alliance between EG&G Middle East and L-3 offers unparalleled experience, innovation, track record and competitiveness to customers throughout the Middle East region.
