The security industry has changed dramatically and it is no longer just about guarding the gates. At modern airports, bus terminals, hotels, and even at office receptions, there is the need for discreet situational awareness. In short, there is the need for baggage scanners.
Baggage scanners use x-ray technology to image the contents of bags, suitcases, and parcels. This enables security personnel to easily and conveniently access the bags of the passengers. It is modern, efficient, and reliable.
The scanning systems are manufactured to the highest international standards and are designed for optimum performance. At Fern Engineering & Supplies, we sell and install baggage scanning systems.
Our clientele includes corporate and government offices, hotels, transport hubs, and event venues. We have even tailored scanners designed for different bag sizes and varying traffic volumes.
There’s a variety of baggage scanners, each designed for specific use cases. For offices and hotels, a small conveyor belt model is perfect. Airports, ports, and large venues will need the bigger, high-capacity units.
More advanced models offer features like automatic threat detection or dual-view imaging and those with x-ray scanning abilities. We will always recommend and supply scanners that suit your needs.
The added speed of baggage scanners increases safety significantly. Instead of manually searching through a bag, security personnel can pull up a screen and view the bag’s contents. Baggage scanners reduce queues and the invasive nature of the procedure for visitors.
The scanners also reduce the risk of dangerous items, such as knives, firearms, or explosives, being introduced to high-risk environments. For airports, embassies, banks and government buildings, this is mission critical.
For businesses, scanners reduce the risk of theft and smuggling. In hotels, scanned bags enable a safe environment and reassurance for other guests. In factories and warehouses, scanned outgoing bags reduces the risk of goods being lost.
The proper security systems in place increases public confidence. With proper baggage scanners, people are more willing to use your facility and attend your event.
They are advantageous for managing entry and exit checks. They are useful for events and can be set up for checking bags at the venue entrance. They are important at transport terminals as they assist in ensuring that no dangerous or restricted items are carried onboard by the passengers.
Finally, they are cost-effective. Rather than having several personnel physically check and attend to bags, trained personnel can simply monitor the scanners.
Fern Engineering & Supplies offer comprehensive baggage scanning systems from supply to installation, training, and maintenance.
