Key Features High throughput in both configurations: 60 vehicles per hour in conveyor mode and over 180 vehicles per hour in drive-through mode. Highest resolution and image quality. Vertically centered inspection from above. Small size for easy installation in existing facilities. Connectability with other devices. The HCVL system is ideal for installation in ports, border crossings, city entrances and anywhere there is a need to inspect a high volume of light commercial vehicles, including cars, vans, minibuses and motorhomes.
The HCVL system provides continuous vehicle flow screening (even during peak hours), while ensuring excellent image quality and accurate inspection results for all types of cargo.
The system is a fast and easy-to-use means of detecting dangerous and illegal substances such as drugs, explosives, weapons, contraband and radioactive materials, as well as identifying illegal transportation of people.
Vertical-centered scanning allows the contents of fully loaded vehicles to be analyzed in a single pass.
The integrated Cargovision platform provides accurate analytics to maintain a high level of security.
High-definition X-ray images of vehicles can be viewed using the DaiSy dataset management tool, allowing for fast and accurate analysis both on-site and remotely.
To comply with local passenger scanning regulations, the HCVL system is available in both conveyor and drive-through configurations.
The equipment can be equipped with an Automatic Radiation Detection (ARD) system, which automatically and continuously detects the presence of radiation in the vehicle. radioactive materials, and an optical character recognition (OCR) system that enables automatic registration of license plates.
