The SDX 6040 offers the best image quality on the market,
ensuring unparalleled clarity when detecting threats. Unlike fixed
screening equipment, the SDX 6040 is highly mobile, allowing it to
be moved and powered up easily. It is an ideal solution for
critical infrastructure, urban security and both public and private
sector environments where high levels of safety and operational
efficiency are paramount.
The SDX 6040 is lightweight with a narrow 80cm footprint,
allowing for rapid relocation to any site. The touch screen
provides an easier and faster way for users to interact with the
system for greater accessibility. The SDX 6040 can also be used
with other Smiths Detection and partner technologies, including
people screening and the trace detection of narcotics or
explosives, making it a comprehensive and adaptable solution for
security needs.
Enhanced Detection with Greater Versatility
The SDX 6040’s powerful 160kV generator delivers exceptional
X-ray image quality, which enables operators to quickly and
accurately identify potential threats, significantly reducing the
risk of misinterpretation.
The system’s smart image display, equipped with features like
organic stripping and enhancement modes, provides superior
discrimination between organic and inorganic materials—critical for
the precise detection of explosives, drugs, and other contraband.
An optimised background contrast function reduces eye strain,
allowing operators to maintain high vigilance during prolonged
use.
The redesigned detection system ensures a totally comprehensive
view of every item, eliminating any blind spots. Additionally, the
solution is compatible with iCMORE , our AI technology, offering
automated threat detection for a wide range of prohibited
items.
Ensuring Public Security in a World of Risk
The SDX 6040 is a compact and high-performance solution for busy
urban environments which are often targets for security threats
such as power plants, transport networks, government and corporate
buildings, visitor attractions, prisons, cruise ships, sports
arenas/venues, and world heritage sites. This type of technology
will be crucial in detecting and preventing threats such as
terrorism, violent crime, and narcotics smuggling.
Dr Philo Daniel, Global Aviation and Urban Security Director
at Smiths Detection, said of the launch:
“At Smiths Detection, our mission is to make the world a safer
place. We know that urban environments are increasingly tackling
threats from groups and individuals. Ensuring their safety has
broader implications for the public, national security, and
economic stability.
The SDX 6040 has been designed to offer superior image
interpretation in a compact solution, providing unparalleled
detection capabilities while integrating into high-traffic areas.
This technology ensures rapid, accurate screening, empowering
security personnel to respond to potential threats in order to
enhance the protection of critical infrastructure and public
spaces.”
