A new era in security screening

 A breakthrough in material-specific substance identification featuring X-ray Diffraction 


Watch the launch video

How does X-ray Diffraction work?

X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) technology works by creating a ‘diffraction fingerprint’ of molecular structures, supporting accurate material identification and allowing the system to differentiate between substances, even those with very similar densities. This makes the XRD particularly effective for explosive and narcotics detection, including constantly changing compounds in powder, liquid or solid form. 

In security screening environments, the XRD can receive alarm queries from Level 1 scanners. The Diffraction technology helps resolve them through trace detection or by automatically clearing false alarms, reducing the need for manual inspections and improving operational efficiency.

Benefits

Benefits 1 (1)

Incremental detection accuracy
X-ray Diffraction provides highly accurate material discrimination based on molecular structure.

Benefits 2

operational savings
Automating alarm resolution with X-ray Diffraction scanners boosts operational efficiency and reduces costs.

Benefits 3

future proof security effectiveness
X-ray Diffraction is one of the few technologies likely to meet the requirements of future regulations.
