American Science and Engineering Receives Multi-Million Dollar Order for Cargo and Parcel X-ray Inspection Systems from Eastern Europe

American Science and Engineering

announces today it has secured a multi-million dollar order from Eastern Europe for the Company's Sentry™ Portal cargo and vehicle screening system, Z Backscatter™ Van (ZBV), and multiple Gemini™ mail, parcel and baggage screening systems. “Using AS&E's advanced X-ray technologies, security officials can detect a broad range of threats and contraband in a variety of settings and applications,” said Anthony Fabiano, AS&E's President and CEO. “Working together, these systems provide security officials with an advanced level of security. For maximum flexibility, the ZBV™ system can easily be deployed to find drugs, contraband, and explosives. The Sentry Portal drive-through system for cargo maintains the flow of traffic, while providing high-quality transmission images. Finally, for effective baggage screening, the Gemini system detects both organic materials such as explosives, and metallic threats with its unique combination of dual-energy and Z Backscatter technology — pioneered and perfected by AS&E.”
