CURRENT AVAILABLE INSPECTION METHODS &

TECHNOLOGIES


Hand Search / Visual Check

X-Ray Transmission (Non-computed tomography based)

Explosive Detections Systems

Explosive Trace Detection Systems

Metal Detection Equipment

Explosive Detection Dogs


DUAL VIEW X-RAY TRANSMISSION (NON-COMPUTED

TOMOGRAPHY)


Advantages

• Large Aperture Available

• Wide variety of commodities

• “Affordable” purchasing cost

Limitations

• Limited detection capabilities / dark alarms

• Relatively poor performance on IEDs

• Significant maintenance cost

• License for use of ionizing radiation

• Rely on human operator interpretation


EXPLOSIVE DETECTION SYSTEMS (STANDARD 3

and more)


Advantages

• Automatic Detection

• No need for human operator interpretation

• Wide variety of commodities

Limitations

• Price restrictive / High maintenance cost

• Shipment size limited (1m x 1m)

• License for use of ionizing radiation

• Significant False Alarm Rate


EXPLOSIVE TRACE DETECTION SYSTEMS


Advantages


• Affordable

• Low false alarm rate

• Very performant as second-level screening

Limitations

• Need to open shipment / Long processing time

• Not adapted for all type of commodities

• Depend on sampling performed by human

operator / training required


METAL DETECTION EQUIPMENT


Advantages


• No need for human intervention

• Affordable / Low maintenance cost

• Very low false alarm rate

• High Throughput

Limitations

• Only for specific metal-free commodities

• Require specific metal-free packaging


EXPLOSIVE DETECTION DOGS


Advantages

• Affordable: cost evenly distributed

• Quick processing time

Limitations

• Not always available

• Not approved everywhere

• Significant training to maintain

• Performances might fluctuate


EVOLUTION FOR CURRENT SCREENING METHODS


Increase capabilities of current technologies

• Quicker computing time to improve throughput

• Improve false alarm rates

Increase the presence on the field of low cost first-level filters and combine

technologies

• Dual-View X-Ray equipped with Auto-Clear capacity

• Metal Detection Equipment

Train the Stakeholders to choose the best screening methods with regard to

their business core


FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS & POSSIBILITES


Explosive Vapour Detection

• Ongoing development

• First studies done by Civil Aviation Authorities

• Not included in international regulatory framework yet

EDS based of Thermal Neutron Activation and Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance

• Very efficient to reveal the presence of explosive

• Still in early stages of R&D

Thank you for your attention !

About MSA Security

• Experience supporting U.S.

cargo industry to meet

heightened screening

mandates

• Currently support 40 cargo

screening facilities

• 30+ years as the industry leader in high consequence threat

protection

• Comprehensive explosive detection and mitigation strategies

• 10+ years experience with canines screening cargo

• Customized cargo screening solutions

• Over 30+ cargo facility assessments done globally to date

• Out of our 480+ teams, 80 deployed specifically for cargo screening

• Our deployment methodology focuses on several key factors: Process

• Ensure EDC deployment fits within your current shipping processes

• Review timing, and access points to static cargo with process engineers

MSA’s Customized Global Deployment Strategy

• Canines are a versatile, rapid tool for cargo screening

• Most effective screening method with minimal disruption

• Canines can effectively operate in your environment

Canines & Cargo Screening

AMJ ULD

Cookie Sheet Loose or Bagged CargoHomogenized Pallet

• Screen by piece

• Centralized location for

screening as pallets are built

• Full pallets/cookie sheet

Cargo Screening Methodologies

• Patented comprehensive screening system ensures a layered

approach for full confidence screening

EDC• EDC searches build of the

container during loading

• Upon indication, packages are extracted, lined up next to the container, and a second sweep is conducted

X-Ray Screening

• The package on which the canine indicated is run through X-ray machine for further inspection

SmartTech®

• X-ray image is immediately transmitted to MSA EOC for analysis and resolution

Should we be visionaries?



For the success of our vision...

• Harmonization of screening requirements and equipment certification

• Simpler regulatory certification

• Cargo-specific improvement of current screening technologies

• Improve detection to be ahead of threats

• Increase capacity (including consolidated screening)

• Reduce false alarms and rejections to other methods

• Development of future advanced screening technologies for Cargo
