American Science and Engineering, Inc. Receives $5.3 Million Follow-on Order for Z Backscatter Vans (ZBVs) for a Latin American Customs Agency
American Science and Engineering, Inc., a leading worldwide supplier of innovative X-ray detection solutions, announced today the receipt of a $5.3 million follow-on order for Z Backscatterâ„¢ Vans (ZBVâ„¢) for a Latin American customs agency. Earlier this month AS&E announced it had received an $8.3 million order for multiple ZBVs for the same Latin American customs organization. The order includes operator training, service, and warranty.
"Our top-selling Z Backscatter Van has proven to be exceptionally effective for customs officials that need to detect threats, drugs, contraband, and stowaways at security checkpoints," said Anthony Fabiano, President and CEO. "The highly mobile and flexible ZBV X-ray system provides rapid inspections, finding threats in real time — either as it drives past vehicles and objects or while stationary and operated from a distance."
AS&E's Z Backscatter Van (ZBV)
The Most Maneuverable, Versatile Mobile X-ray Detection System on the Market
A breakthrough in X-ray detection technology, AS&E's Z Backscatter Van is the number one selling non-intrusive mobile inspection system on the market. The ZBV system is a low-cost, highly mobile screening system built into a commercially available delivery van. The ZBV system allows for immediate deployment in response to security threats, and its high throughput capability facilitates rapid inspections. The system's unique "drive-by" capability allows one or two operators to conduct X-ray imaging while the ZBVsystem drives past suspect vehicles and objects. For personnel safety in dangerous environments, a remote console is available for operating the system in stationary mode from a distance of up to 500 meters.
