HIGH-ENERGY RAIL CARGO INSPECTION
The Rapiscan eagle® rail cargo series of high-energy inspection systems enable automated scanning of dense cargo transported by rail, for verifying manifests and detecting contraband.
Advantages
- Automated scanning of rail cars
- Available for single or multiple tracks
- High-speed configuration for scanning at up to 60 km/hr
- Material discrimination and optional radioactive threat detection
The Eagle R60/R90 is designed to inspect a variety of rail cars and cargo. It scans double stacked containers, single 40-foot containers and two 20-foot containers on one rail car.
The train travels through the scanner at speeds up to 15 km/hr without significant loss of image quality.
The train does not need to move at a precise, constant speed because the speed of the train is measured by a speed sensor. The linear accelerator pulse rate is adjusted according to the measured speed, to eliminate image distortion and minimize radiation output. With high-quality X-ray images and Cargo Viewer software, the Rapiscan Eagle Rail Cargo Series reduces the need for manual inspection. The systems include a fully automated scanning control system that monitors the flow of rail cars, captures identification numbers, acquires high-resolution images of all cargo passing through the system, and controls the X-ray beam to scan only rail cargo specified by the operator.
The system is available for single or multiple tracks as well as single or bi-directional scanning. A high-speed, single-track option is also available.
