- Unique to the industry - 101Z offers an open-tunnel configuration to scan over-sized and oddly shaped objects
- Combined technologies - simultaneous Transmission and Z® Backscatter X-ray imaging - providing the most information to the operator about the object under examination
- Proprietary Z Backscatter technology to provide photo-like images that highlight organic threats and contraband, expediting analysis while reducing operator fatigue
The U.S. Government knows the AS&E Advantage. U.S. Government agencies have deployed more than 100 Model 101Z and 101ZZ systems for numerous security applications around the globe.
The combination of patented Z Backscatter technology with Transmission X-ray imaging makes the 101Z a powerful system for detecting threats and contraband, including explosives, plastic weapons, and drugs. AS&E's patented technology allows the use of powerful X-rays, while limiting X-ray emissions to very low levels.
The 101Z tunnel size can easily accommodate large luggage and medium sized parcels. Additionally, the 101Z is available in an optional open-tunnel configuration that eliminates restrictions on the height of scanned objects.

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 and 4X magnification options with joystick control to roam continuously through full field of view. (System is also equipped with Zoom Lock.)
