Security is
a matter of trust
Challenges for security checks
– today and tomorrow
Air traffic passenger numbers are constantly rising and security is becoming
an even greater focus. Major international airports, in particular, face a
serious challenge in terms of maintaining the highest security standards
while at the same time organising passenger and baggage checks in an
efficient and flexible way.
In the medium-term, conventional inspection areas will find themselves at
full capacity. In contrast, the checkpoint of the future will rely on innovative
technologies which will adapt to the characteristics of their purpose – with
the potential for further development. With this in mind, Smiths Detection
provides powerful turnkey solutions including the required infrastructure,
planning and training, supported by rapid, specialised service. By using
smarter security technologies airports will be in the position to work more
efficiently in the future, regardless of ever-rising passenger numbers.
Flexible solutions will pave the way for future changes in operating
procedures or the approach to security. Passengers, in turn, benefit from a
new experience through reduced queueing and waiting times, smooth flows
and new services such as automated baggage drops. Smiths Detection is
prepared to integrate innovative sensor technologies seamlessly within the
checkpoint of tomorrow, and supplies impressive, space-saving solutions
for maximum security supporting high passenger throughput.

No other issue is more important to air travel than the
safety of passengers. This is increasingly reflected in the
changes in security regulations that must be carried out
by airport operators.
At the same time, airports tread a sensitive path between
the pressures of changing regulations, progressively
greater demands for efficiency and the expectation of
passengers for increased travelling comfort. Smiths
Detection puts all of these requirements at the centre
of its technology and product development, resulting in
sustainable solutions for customers, both now and in the
future. For example, holistic checkpoint solutions which
are customer focused to contribute towards optimum
configuration of the checkpoint. This includes the
best possible utilisation of space for rapid and smooth
checking processes. Whether for baggage scanning
with X-ray equipment, or sensors for liquid detection,
or passenger screening with safe millimetre-wave
technology, Smiths Detection offers the most advanced
range of threat detection products. Smiths Detection
simplifies decisions about important investment with its
range of modular solutions that perfectly complement
existing systems. One example is the TIM scanner
for liquids that can be connected to existing X-ray
equipment. Or the HI-SCAN 6040-2is X-ray
scanner, which offers an outstanding price/
performance ratio, contributing to checkpoint
efficiency with its compact dimensions
and excellent throughput. Operators carry the
responsibility for security. To serve their needs, our
priorities therefore include the continuous improvement
of the work area and enhanced image quality, for easier
detection of security hazards.
As pioneers in future checkpoint technologies, Smiths
Detection systems allow the aviation industry to
implement the latest technology to support greater
productivity and efficiency. An important component of
this is the networking of different systems, including
X-ray systems and sensors, to capture data and statistics
that are vital in ensuring rapid and smooth checking
processes. The optimum solution is Remote Screening
and Advanced Recheck. The system captures data from
the X-ray and transmits it to a remote workstation for
image analysis. If the operator there is satisfied that
the bag contents pose no risk, the luggage is allowed to
pass through the screening process without interruption.
If a potential risk is identified, this can be marked and
sent back to a monitor that can be directly viewed by the
operator at the re-check workstation. In this way, Smiths
Detection is working to ensure that the checkpoint of the
future becomes a reality. Smiths Detection‘s advanced
solutions:
• Advanced X-ray Screening
• Remote Screening
• Advanced Recheck
• Connectivity and Networking
• Explosives Trace Detection
• People Screening
• Modular Checkpoint Conveyor Systems

HI-SCAN 6040aTiX
This superior multi-view X-ray system for automatic detection of solid
and liquid explosives in carry-on baggage uses two high-resolution
views. aTiX systems in service world-wide have demonstrated a high
detection rate and high reliability throughout the entire life cycle. The
system is approved for LEDS under ECAC Standard 2 Type C and has
been developed to meet future security standards.

HI-SCAN 7555aTiX
This is a real all-rounder. Just like HI-SCAN 6040aTiX it is EU approved
for the screening of LAGs (Liquids, Aerosols and Gels). Thanks to larger
tunnel dimensions and indivudual algorithms, it also qualifies for
checked baggage screening in compliance with EU EDS Standard 2. The
increased conveyor load capacity makes it suitable for screening oversized
baggage and small and medium-sized air cargo.
