Next Generation Security Screening by Smith Detection

With the new HI-SCAN 6046si, Smiths Detection, the world's leading provider of X-ray and trace detection systems, launched the next generation in passenger cabin baggage security screening equipment. Following the successful design tradition of the HI-SCAN 6040 range, the 6046si features new data acquisition and image processing technology plus extra functionalities that make this system one of the most advanced carry-on baggage inspection systems available. It adds significantly to the versatility of Smiths Detection's successful ProLine product range.

HI-SCAN 6046si is equipped with a high resolution detector line that produces dramatically sharp, detailed images. With this new sensor technology, the 6046si generates highly impressive X-ray images thanks to a 100% increase in pixels. These improvements make it an especially valuable tool for high risk applications. In addition, the new HI-SCAN 6046si features a higher tunnel opening and therefore can easily accommodate non-standard carry-on baggage.

Smiths Detection puts great efforts into achieving high detection standards for X-ray inspection solutions to timely meet future checkpoint requirements. Advanced technologies combined with well-proven approaches are well under way today. Smiths Detection has born this attitude in mind and now offers its brand new HI-SCAN 6046si X-ray inspection system, which is perfectly suited for checkpoint applications due to its design and comprehensive functionalities. Matching it with Smiths Detection IONSCAN trace detectors provides a comprehensive security solution for checkpoint applications offering unequaled opportunities for passenger screening requirements. Apt examples for the breadth of security solutions from Smiths Detection, which are tailored to the needs of checkpoint operators, are the IONSCAN and Sabre particle detector types, used by the thousands worldwide.
