LONDRES, September 12, 2024–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Smiths Detection, a global leader in threat detection and security screening technologies and a subsidiary of Smiths Group plc, today announced the launch of the SDX 6040 Enhanced Image Quality (EIQ), an advanced screening solution designed to meet the dynamic demands of modern security environments.
The SDX 6040 delivers industry-leading image quality, ensuring unmatched clarity when detecting threats. Unlike fixed monitoring equipment, the SDX 6040 is highly mobile, making it easy to move and power up. It is an ideal solution for critical infrastructure, urban security, and public and private sector environments where high levels of security and operational efficiency are of the utmost importance.
The SDX 6040 is lightweight, with a small footprint of just 80cm, making it easy to move around. The touchscreen allows users to interact with the system more easily and quickly, for improved accessibility. The SDX 6040 can also be used with other technologies from Smiths Detection and its partners, including people screening and trace detection of narcotics or explosives, making it a complete and adaptable solution for security needs.
Optimized detection for greater versatility
The SDX 6040’s powerful 160 kV generator delivers exceptional X-ray image quality, enabling operators to quickly and accurately identify potential threats, significantly reducing the risk of interpretation errors.
The system’s intelligent display screen, with functions such as organic stripping and enhancement modes, helps better distinguish organic and inorganic materials, which is essential for the accurate detection of explosives, drugs and other contraband. An optimized background contrast function reduces eye fatigue, allowing operators to remain highly alert during extended use.

The modified detection system ensures an overview of each item, eliminating blind spots. In addition, the solution is compatible with iCMORE, our artificial intelligence technology, which provides automated threat detection for a wide range of prohibited items.
Ensuring public safety in a world of risk
The SDX 6040 is a compact, high-performance solution for high-traffic urban environments that are often the target of security threats, such as power plants, transportation networks, government and corporate buildings, tourist attractions, prisons, cruise ships, sports stadiums and venues, and world heritage sites. This type of technology will be essential for detecting and preventing threats such as terrorism, violent crime, and drug smuggling.
Dr Philo Daniel, Global Director of Aviation and Urban Security at Smiths Detection, said of the launch:
“At Smiths Detection, our mission is to make the world a safer place. We know that urban environments are increasingly exposed to threats from groups and individuals. Keeping them safe has wider implications for the public, national security and economic stability.
The SDX 6040 has been designed to deliver excellent image interpretation in a compact solution, providing unmatched detection capabilities while integrating into high-traffic areas. This technology ensures fast and accurate screening, enabling security personnel to respond to potential threats to further protect critical infrastructure and public spaces.
