3DX-RAY’s AXIS CXi mailroom screening system has been selected to enhance security at an embassy in Switzerland.
The solution is expected to help provide protection against postal bombs, hazardous substances and other prohibited items delivered through the mail and parcel network.
3DX-RAY deploys AXIS CXi system
The AXIS CXi’s colour imaging capability enables operators not only to identify the shape of concealed objects but also to assess the composition of materials.
Organic materials – like explosives, narcotics, chemicals and even benign items such as food – are highlighted in orange.
Metals such as firearms, knives and potential IED components appear in blue, while inorganic materials commonly associated with improvised explosive devices are shown in green.
A greyscale mode provides additional support for precise shape recognition.
This multi-layered visualisation allows operators, even with minimal training, to conduct more accurate, efficient and confident assessments, helping organisations strengthen security while maintaining operational efficiency.
“The first line of defence”
“Embassies face a unique and evolving range of threats, with mailrooms often serving as the first line of defence against suspicious packages and hazardous materials,” said Vince Deery, CEO, 3DX-RAY.
“AXIS CXi was developed to bring the sophisticated colour differentiation technology traditionally associated with airport baggage screening into a compact and versatile platform suitable for government and diplomatic facilities.”
The AXIS CXi cabinet X-ray system has been evaluated using the UK Mail Screening Test Piece (MSTP), a recognised methodology for assessing imaging performance in mail screening systems.
Beyond imaging performance, the AXIS CXi introduces a notable innovation in system design.
According to 3DX-RAY, it combines an exceptionally large inspection chamber with a compact footprint, enabling the screening of not only mail and parcels but also larger items such as bags and aircraft cabin luggage.
The system is fully mobile and features a modern, unobtrusive design, making it particularly well suited to embassy environments where security, flexibility, and aesthetics are equally important.
“Trust, reliability and rapid threat detection”
“We are delighted to secure this latest embassy installation in Switzerland, which further expands the international footprint of the AXIS CXi,” added Deery.
“The selection of our system by another diplomatic mission reflects the growing demand for advanced screening solutions that combine exceptional imaging performance, ease of use and operational flexibility.”
Deery concluded: “AXIS CXi continues to demonstrate its ability to meet the security needs of organisations where trust, reliability and rapid threat detection are critical.”
