- High level of maneuverability with extremely small footprint, wheels, and a unique folding conveyor
- System capacity exceeds its size, with the ability to scan large items (e.g., a mattress) and still fit through a standard doorway
- Combined technologies - simultaneous Transmission and Z® Backscatter X-ray imaging - providing the most information to the operator about the object under examination
The U.S. Navy knows the AS&E Advantage for force protection. The Navy purchased multiple Model 101GT X-ray systems to screen mail, packages, and baggage entering naval bases throughout Europe.
The 101GT was designed specifically for applications requiring mobility. The 101GT uses the powerful combination of AS&E's Z Backscatter technology and Transmission X-ray to provide highly effective detection capabilities.
The unique folding conveyor allows the system to be closed up easily and wheeled within or between buildings. Once relocated, the system is operational within minutes.
Unlike competitive systems, the 101GT is small enough to fit through a standard doorway, yet has an extra large tunnel for the non-destructive inspection of large packages, baggage, and prison mattresses.

Image Analysis Features
Density Expand: Density Expand allows the operator to adjust the contrast of the displayed image, thus enhancing differences in objects that may initially appear similar. (System is also equipped with Density Expand Lock, to maintain density setting for successive scans.)
Edge Enhancement: Edge Enhancement is a computer-based algorithm used to accentuate the edges of objects in the X-ray image, helping the operator to recognize anomalies faster and more readily.
Example: Sharpens and enhances thin wires associated with explosives.
Penetration: Penetration of 24 mm is provided. Extra penetration is available as an option.
Reverse Video: Reverse Video allows operators to enhance X-ray images by reversing polarity of white and black contrast.
Zoom: Zoom provides 2X, 4X and 8X magnification options with joystick control to roam continuously through full field of view. (System is also equipped with Zoom Lock.)
