Cargotec Launches World-wide Sales Campaign for Radiation Detection Applications

Published: 30 September 2008

Cargotec Port Security has launched a world-wide sales campaign for IAT enabled products including the Spreader Bar Radiation Verification System (SBRVS) and the Shuttle Carrier Radiation Verification System (SCRVS). In preparation for the Terminal Operators Conference (TOC) to be held in Long Beach California beginning on November 18th, Cargotec has completed interviews with all of the major cargo industry magazines. Major articles including cover stories are scheduled for the October and November issues.

Cargotec will participate in multiple panel discussions at the TOC Conference to inform the industry of our recent successful testing at multiple government facilities and the SBRVS and SCRVS readiness for the market. The SBRVS and SCRVS provide for 100% inspection of cargo containers for radiological materials without impacting the flow of commerce. The real benefit to the Terminal Operators and Port Authorities is the verification of the containers in the normal flow of container movement through the port to maintain high productivity levels.

 IAT and Cargotec are now evaluating additional radiation threat identification system (RTIS) applications applied to Cargotec equipment to support Ship to Rail and other important cargo security applications.
