X-Ray Scanner Solutions For High Security Prisons & Correctional Facilities
Jails, prisons, and many other correctional facilities are often faced with illegal contraband snuck into facilities such as pills, cell phones, and weapons. The smuggling of these items will not only destabilize the security of the facility but will encourage inmates to sneak in more contraband. X-ray screening solutions for high-security prisons & correctional facilities will help detect and capture contraband that enters a secure facility, stopping it from reaching the wrong hands.
At LINEV Systems, we’re a company that specializes in X-ray imaging, security, and analytical solutions for a variety of different prisons and correctional facilities. We provide creative and innovative X-ray security solutions that can adapt to many different threats and bolster your facility’s protections. Our X-ray screening systems are especially useful in dealing with smuggling or organized crime in prisons, allowing security management to block out contraband before they reach indoors.
Here are how X-ray screeners work and how they can effectively detect any illegal contraband from incoming prisoners at a security check.
How Do X-Ray Screening Systems Work?
Most types of X-ray scanners use what we call backscatter or transmission X-ray technology to safely scan a person’s body, then provide inspection images on a screen. Each of these technologies helps keep correctional institutions safe and mitigate the movement of illegal contraband material in a prison facility.
When X-rays interact with any physical matter, they pass through the object, bounce off, and are scattered away from the object or absorbed into it. Full-body x-ray screening systems emit very low doses of radiation every time it’s used and can easily detect any hidden object from an inmate.
Backscatter X-ray technology used commonly in security screening devices requires two large detectors to deliver and collect the scattered rays to pull up an image. These x-rays are not as intense as other devices and can be easily scanned and reflected back in the direction they originated from. Backscatter X-rays can detect objects on the surface of an inspected person and can even detect items hidden in pockets.
Meanwhile, transmission X-ray technology is virtually non-intrusive and has traditionally been used in the medical field. X-rays from the device are passed through the body and collected on the opposite side to create an image of what is on a person. They are a far easier alternative than pat-downs or strip searches but can be used to complement those methods if needed. Despite not transmitting as much radiation, transmission X-ray technology can detect objects far below the surface, such as inside the mouth or on other body cavities.
Modern X-ray screening systems have advanced considerably over the years and adapted with better functions. They have the technology to spot contraband items inside or on an inmate’s body, greatly increasing the level of security and operational efficiency in many prisons, jails, and correctional facilities.
How Can X-Ray Screeners Be Used in Security?
X-ray screening systems have backscatter and transmission technology to properly screen inmates before they enter a correctional facility. We have several models available for you to compare and access for the needs of your facility.
The use of X-ray screening technology in prisons, and many other correctional facilities is an important aspect of contraband detection because it helps enforce three particular needs: detecting on people, in vehicles, or in the environment. Different models will specialize in either of these areas, with some focusing on only one area of contraband detection. Most often, person-borne detection on x-ray screening solutions will be effective in discovering hidden contraband on a person or in a body cavity.
In order to detect contraband, a variety of options are available for scanning people, mail, and parcels. A layered approach to securing entry points into correctional facilities can be achieved through detection technology, which increases efficiency and thoroughness. At the secured entrance, X-ray scanning is used to inspect mail or to screen visitors’ belongings allowing COs to complete their tasks in a fraction of the usual time.
Vehicle-borne detection solutions on x-ray devices will be able to detect contraband transported and concealed in vehicles that are entering or leaving a correctional facility regularly. On the other hand, environmental detection solutions can detect contraband concealed in the facility itself, stopping inmates from spreading too much contraband inside.
X-ray technology is very powerful and can help your security team keep prisons safe and efficient at all times. Whatever the material the contraband is made of or wherever it’s hidden, our x-ray screening systems will help you find it and stop it from reaching inside the facility.
Why Is It Important To Have X-Ray Scanners At A Prison?
Using X-ray scanners can be highly beneficial for prisons and correctional facilities that want to control the flow of inmates coming in and out. These technologies can greatly reduce personnel costs and boost the effectiveness of screening for contraband in a secured facility. Although strip searches or pat-downs may be needed from time to time, x-ray scanners will reduce the need to do them in most situations. The screening systems will be able to detect any illegal object that’s trying to be smuggled in and keep both guards and inmates safe.
Just under one third of prisoners say it is easy to get drugs (also known as dope or juice) even in maximum-security prisons. Many prisoners also take drugs for the first time in prison. According to one in five prisoners who have used heroin, they started inside. To stop drugs, guns, and explosives from getting into prisons, it’s necessary to install full body scanners. People can smuggle prohibited items under clothing or inside body cavities with the help of X-ray prison security body scanners. There is a great deal of use of X-ray mattress scanners in prisons for inspecting mattresses in order to detect hidden prohibited items.
