X-Ray Technology Two 200 kV X-Ray Generators

The Smiths Detection HI-SCAN 145180-2is pro is a high-performance dual-view X-ray inspection system designed specifically for air cargo, freight and palletized goods screening. It combines a large inspection tunnel, powerful dual 200 kV X-ray generators, high penetration capability and advanced image processing to support fast and reliable security screening of large and heavy objects.

Designed for time-critical cargo environments, the HI-SCAN 145180-2is pro provides both horizontal and vertical X-ray views in a single inspection. This dual-view configuration can help reduce inspection times and the need for repeated scans while providing operators with detailed images for threat assessment.

Dual-View X-Ray Imaging

The HI-SCAN 145180-2is pro uses two 200 kV X-ray generators positioned at 90 degrees to provide horizontal and vertical views of the inspected cargo. This allows operators to assess large or densely packed objects from two perspectives during a single screening process.

One of the generators is positioned underneath the conveyor rather than above the inspection tunnel. According to Smiths Detection, this configuration contributes to penetration performance, image quality and easier maintenance access.

High Penetration for Dense Cargo

The system is designed to screen large and densely packed air cargo. Smiths Detection reports 55–58 mm steel penetration, while technical documentation identifies approximately 58 mm typical steel penetration. This capability makes the system suitable for screening palletized freight and other dense cargo where high penetration is important.

Large Screening Tunnel

The HI-SCAN 145180-2is pro provides a maximum object size of 1450 mm wide × 1800 mm high, allowing it to accommodate large pallets, freight shipments and bulky objects. Its robust roller conveyor is designed to support the smooth movement of heavy cargo through the inspection tunnel.

The large tunnel and heavy-duty conveyor make the system particularly suitable for air cargo terminals, freight-forwarding facilities and logistics hubs where standard baggage X-ray systems cannot accommodate the size or weight of the cargo.

Advanced HiTraX 3 Electronics

The HI-SCAN 145180-2is pro incorporates the HiTraX 3 electronics platform, supporting advanced image processing and integration into material-handling systems. Its digitally controlled X-ray generators also provide diagnostic and performance-analysis capabilities, with internal memory used to store important lifecycle data.

Efficient Maintenance and Low Total Cost of Ownership

The system was designed with operational efficiency and maintenance accessibility in mind. Smiths Detection highlights its compact footprint, easy service access, generator design and lifecycle considerations as factors contributing to an attractive total cost of ownership (TCO).

Typical Applications

The Smiths Detection HI-SCAN 145180-2is pro is suitable for:

  • Air cargo screening
  • Airport cargo security
  • Freight inspection
  • Palletized cargo screening
  • Cargo terminal security
  • Logistics hubs
  • Freight-forwarding facilities
  • Warehouses
  • Aviation security
  • Large-object X-ray inspection
  • High-security cargo screening
  • Supply-chain security

The system is specifically positioned by Smiths Detection for air cargo, freight and palletized goods, with a tunnel designed to accommodate large cargo items and pallets.

TSA Air Cargo Qualification

Smiths Detection announced that the HI-SCAN 145180-2is pro was added to the Qualified section of the TSA Air Cargo Screening Technology List (ACSTL) in 2021 for cargo use.

Note: Exact regulatory approvals, available software options and system configuration should be confirmed for the intended country and application before procurement.
