Smiths Detection has launched the SDX 10060 XDi, a cutting-edge X-ray Diffraction (XRD) scanner that is revolutionizing security screening. With its ability to provide precise material discrimination and substance identification based on an object’s molecular structure, this scanner is highly effective in detecting a wide range of compounds in powder, liquid, or solid forms.
The SDX 10060 XDi is particularly useful in identifying evolving threats such as homemade explosives or narcotics, even when substances have similar densities. This makes it ideal for airports and other high-volume screening operations that need to screen large amounts of baggage quickly and accurately. With its ability to automate the resolution of potential explosive alarms, this scanner enhances both security and efficiency.
In addition to enhancing security measures, XRD technology can assist customs agencies in detecting contraband items like narcotics. This helps combat the growing threats posed by illegal substances in society. The launch of the SDX 10060 XDi represents a significant advancement in security screening, with Smiths Detection’s President, Jerome de Chassey, emphasizing the company’s commitment to protecting people and infrastructure.
The introduction of X-ray Diffraction technology sets a new standard for security screening across various sectors, ensuring that operations are future-proofed against emerging threats. Smiths Detection’s development of the SDX 10060 XDi demonstrates their dedication to shaping the future of threat detection and making the world a safer place.
