3DX-Ray’s portable X-ray machines combine decades of counter-IED expertise with purpose-built engineering for security operations. Unlike systems adapted from industrial or medical applications, our ThreatScan® range is designed from the ground up for tactical deployment, meaning that each system fully addresses the needs of EOD and security specialists.
Key Differentiators:
No Compromise Between Portability & Performance
These portable X-ray scanners offer high-resolution flat panel detection and powerful penetration in backpack-portable packages. No compromises between weight and capability; our portable X-ray systems deliver the image clarity security professionals require in a portable format.
Operational Flexibility
Multiple detector sizes and wireless configurations mean that there is a system for every security scenario.
Intuitive, Fast Workflow
Fast image capture and clear materials discrimination colour-coding enable operators to work faster and more accurately.
Our portable X-ray security systems play a crucial role in high-security settings, assisting law enforcement, border control, and event security teams in quickly and efficiently detecting threats.
Law enforcement teams utilise portable X-ray machines to quickly assess suspicious packages and unattended baggage.
Security personnel at ports, airports, and border checkpoints utilise portable X-ray systems to scan cargo and luggage for concealed contraband, weapons, and explosives.
3DX-RAY’s portable X-ray machines support Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) by detecting hidden threats and electronic surveillance devices.
For large-scale events, stadiums and VIP gatherings, portable X-ray security systems offer a non-intrusive way to screen personal belongings and prevent security threats.
The detector panel is positioned behind the target item, the X-ray generator is placed in front, and the operator activates scanning from a laptop or tablet imaging station.
X-rays pass through the target, and the detector captures differential absorption patterns. Advanced software in our portable X-ray scanners processes these patterns into high-resolution images with material discrimination colour-coding: orange (organic materials), blue (metals), and green (inorganic/mixed materials).
Operators can then apply image enhancement tools (zoom, pan, and measurement) for detailed threat assessment.
Yes, portable X-ray machines are safe when operated by trained personnel following proper procedures. All systems include multiple safety features, including physical safety interlocks, key switches, audible and visible warning signs, and compliance with radiation safety standards.
Operators maintain safe distances during X-ray generation, and exposure is controlled through operational protocols.
Yes. ThreatScan® portable X-ray systems are engineered for demanding operational conditions: temperature ranges from -20°C to +55°C, humidity up to 100% non-condensing, and ruggedised construction for field deployment. Select models feature IP67 water and dust protection for extreme environments.
