  • 3DX-Ray Ltd wins new contract for portable AS2 x-ray systems in South-East Asia.
  • AS2 System features cutting-edge image processing: 3D Emboss, DeepFocus™, and materials discrimination.
  • Compact and lightweight, AS2 ideal for law enforcement in confined search spaces.

3DX-Ray Ltd has secured a contract to supply its AS2 Systems to a South-East Asian country.

The AS2 System, designed for law enforcement and operators in restricted access areas, is the company's newest compact portable x-ray panel. 

Engineered with the latest glassless technology, it offers a smaller footprint while maintaining advanced capabilities.

Innovative technology features

The AS2 System features a dead zone cut off of less than 3mm on two sides, enhancing its functionality in confined spaces. It is equipped with sophisticated image processing options, such as materials discrimination, pan and zoom, as well as DeepFocus™, 3D Emboss, measurement, and annotation. These features, coupled with high-quality images, facilitate quick and accurate image interpretation. The AS2 panel’s compact, lightweight design makes it ideal for rapid deployment and backpacking

The x-ray images are displayed on a screen and can be saved in proprietary TSM, JPEG, and other common file formats. The complete system includes an amorphous silicon x-ray detector panel, a 120kV or 150kV x-ray generator, a laptop equipped with ThreatSpect software, and necessary accessories like batteries, chargers, wireless communication, and a transport case. The reduced size and weight of the AS2 panel make it optimal for rapid deployment and convenient for backpacking.

Addressing practical challenges

Vince Deery, CEO of 3DX-RAY, remarked, “Over the years we have had a lot of feedback from customers regards the challenges of searching in confined spaces like inside of vehicles, inside furniture, even in closets and lockers. We responded to this by designing and bringing to market the AS2, as a smaller form portable x-ray panel but with all the capability of its larger counterparts like the ThreatScan®-AS1. This reflects our ongoing commitment to listening closely to our customers and responding quickly to the real‑world challenges they face.
