24 Jan Safeguarding borders and addressing security challenges
Find out how LINEV Systems’ X-ray security screening solutions are transforming security in the Middle East and Africa and stepping up to global security challenges and the safeguarding of borders.
Our world is rapidly evolving, with the transportation industry playing a key role in connecting people and goods globally. Airports, due to the nature of air transport, become vulnerable to sudden attacks and attractive targets for various criminals. Seaports emerge as primary channels for smuggling various goods, including drugs, illegal migrants, wildlife and counterfeit items.
Therefore, checkpoints play a crucial role at any border crossing point, ensuring security and combating crime as the first line of defence against illegal immigrants, explosives, weapons, contraband cash, drugs and other threats. The commercial industry faces unique challenges such as thefts on-premises, preventing equipment and health damage, minimising security risks for key facilities and buildings, and boosting confidence among those potentially at risk of terrorist or criminal activities. Many of these challenges can be effectively addressed through X-ray scanning, where LINEV Systems stands as a leading player in this field.
The Middle East and Africa find themselves at the crossroads of geopolitical challenges and evolving security threats. As these threats become more sophisticated, traditional methods of border control are no longer sufficient. LINEV Systems has risen to the occasion, providing a robust line of defence with its advanced X-ray security screening systems.
A holistic approach to security
The DTP Vehicle scanner enhances law enforcement’s efforts against drug smuggling by detecting concealed compartments in vehicles, intercepting drug shipments and mitigating associated social and economic consequences. LINEV Systems extends this security to maritime and air transport with advanced X-ray cargo scanners, ensuring thorough inspection for illicit goods in containers and shipments amid expanding global trade networks. Integrating cargo scanners in Middle Eastern and African transportation hubs enhances supply chain security.
These scanners, by employing non-intrusive methods, prevent smuggling and facilitate legitimate trade, showcasing LINEV Systems’ effective security approach. Beyond physical safety, heightened security measures, exemplified by LINEV’s advanced X-ray screening systems, reflect the commitment of nations to citizens’ safety, economic stability and the rule of law.
Enhancing vehicle inspection efficiency with advanced DTP systems
LINEV Systems has emerged as a pioneer in the field of Detection DTP systems, offering a diverse range of high-energy and low-energy systems specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of different equipment. These innovative solutions facilitate detailed scanning of vehicles, ensuring the safety and security of both passengers and cargo.
By employing dual-energy X-ray technology, these scanners can penetrate even the most complex concealments, revealing hidden compartments that could be used for smuggling contraband or transporting dangerous weaponry.
Efficient cargo and vehicle scanning
LINEV Systems’ low-energy DTP systems deliver comprehensive imaging of freight vehicles, cars, and buses, with exceptional material differentiation in the final images. This is particularly crucial for separating materials within both passenger and freight vehicles. Meanwhile, the high-energy systems efficiently scan dense objects, enabling thorough examination of cargo containers to detect contraband and concealed objects.
Multi-projection capability
A standout feature of LINEV Systems’ solutions is the ability to scan cargo from multiple projections. The low-energy DTP systems produce three images, including two depicting the object from different planes. This multi-view approach enhances material separation, providing a nuanced inspection of both passenger and freight vehicles.
Transmission Tx technology
LINEV Systems employs sophisticated Transmission Tx technology in its DTP systems, facilitating the detection of objects hidden deep within the surfaces of vehicles. This technology enhances the system’s capability to identify concealed items, ensuring a thorough inspection process.
Integrated solutions – DTP 7500/320DV
LINEV Systems has taken innovation a step further with the development of the DTP 7500/320DV, an integrated solution that combines the strengths of both low-energy and high-energy systems. This unique multiple-projection and energy technology makes it possible to safely inspect vehicles of varying sizes, including passenger vehicles, vans, buses and loaded trucks simultaneously.
The system offers versatility in energy levels, allowing for the safe screening of vehicles with different densities and loads. The system can use 320kV energy for lighter vehicles, such as passenger cars, vans, and buses, and 7.5 MeV for heavily loaded trucks with high density.
Enhanced inspection through dual-energy technology
The simultaneous application of both 320kV and 7.5MeV energies significantly improves the overall inspection level, effectively detecting both low and high-density contraband and threats. The dual-energy technology, coupled with automatic colour coding and material discrimination, distinguishes organic and non-organic materials, and metals. This feature is instrumental in highlighting dangerous and prohibited items hidden within vehicles.
Combatting human trafficking
The DTP Vehicle scanner not only detects conventional threats but also plays a crucial role in addressing the rising concern of human trafficking. Illegal migration has become a pressing issue, and traffickers often exploit vehicles to transport people across borders undetected. LINEV’s DTP Vehicle scanner, with its high-resolution imaging capabilities, aids border control agencies in identifying hidden individuals within vehicles, preventing the tragic consequences of human trafficking.
Strengthening borders, securing futures
As we navigate an ever-evolving security landscape, governments, border control agencies, and private stakeholders must collaborate and invest in cutting-edge technologies. LINEV Systems, with its innovative solutions, offers a beacon of hope in the face of complex security challenges. The integration of DTP Vehicle scanners and cargo scanners into security protocols is a step towards fortifying borders and securing the future of our societies. In conclusion, the adoption of LINEV Systems’ X-ray security screening solutions is a transformative move for the Middle East and Africa in addressing contemporary security threats. The DTP Vehicle scanners — with their capability to uncover hidden threats within vehicles — and cargo scanners — enhancing the security of transported goods — represent a paradigm shift in border control and transportation security. The onus is on governments, security agencies, and stakeholders to prioritise the implementation of these advanced technologies, creating a collective shield against the myriad challenges that threaten our safety and well-being.
