3DX-Ray’s AXIS-CXi Cabinet-Based X-Ray System, Secures Two High Threat Entities in Rome 

3DX-Ray has sold two AXIS-CXi, cabinet-based x-ray systems to secure high threat sites in Rome, Italy.

AXIS-CXi was originally designed to bring the same colour differentiating image technology used in airport baggage screening, to the mail room environment. AXIS-CXi quickly showed its potential in a whole variety of security scenarios, from embassy lobbies to the homes of high-net-worth individuals.

The AXIS-CXi was a huge step forward in mail room scanning, as colour differentiated scans enable operators to determine not just the shape but, the nature of the materials being scanned. Orange shows organics, such as explosives, chemicals and drugs, as well as more innocent items such as foodstuffs. Blue shows metals, such as; guns, knives, and potential IED components. Green shows inorganic materials like those used in homemade explosives. Grey scale is used for recognition of shapes and the form of objects. This allows the operator, with very little training, to analyse items more accurately, quickly and easily.

But another major innovation is in the design itself. The AXIS-CXi has an extra-large inspection chamber, whilst maintaining a small footprint. So, not only can it scan mail and parcels, but it can also scan bags up to and including aircraft cabin bags. The system is mobile and aesthetically sympathetic, meaning that it can be used in offices, hotel lobbies, banks, retail centres, in fact anywhere!

3DX-RAY LTD, CEO, Vincent Deery said: “AXIS-CXi with its combination technology and unobtrusive good looks has once again proved its usefulness in an ever-growing range of security scenarios.”
