Walk-Through Metal Detectors & X-Ray Baggage Scanners in Egypt
In today’s security-conscious world, screening and inspection systems have become essential for every organization.
From airports and hotels to factories and government buildings, walk-through metal detectors and X-ray baggage scanners form the first line of defense against unauthorized items and potential threats.
In Egypt, Egypt Techno Trade stands as one of the leading companies providing professional security inspection systems, integrating ZKTeco, Hikvision, Bosch, and Honeywell technologies to ensure maximum safety and operational efficiency.

Importance of Security Inspection Systems
Security inspection systems are designed to detect and prevent the entry of metallic weapons, explosives, or prohibited items.
They are a vital part of access control and are widely used in:
-
Airports and seaports
-
Government buildings
-
Factories and logistics centers
-
Events and exhibitions
-
Malls, hotels, and educational institutions
By installing these systems, organizations can significantly reduce security risks while maintaining smooth entry flow for authorized individuals.
Walk-Through Metal Detectors – How They Work
Walk-through metal detectors (WTMD) operate using electromagnetic fields. When a person passes through the archway, the system detects any metallic object based on magnetic disturbance.
Modern detectors, supplied by Egypt Techno Trade, feature multi-zone detection, meaning the gate can precisely identify the location of the metal object — whether it’s near the head, torso, or legs.
Key Features:
-
6 to 33 detection zones
-
Adjustable sensitivity levels
-
LCD or LED display for real-time status
-
Alarm with adjustable volume and light indicators
-
Easy installation and calibration
Applications:
-
Airports and public transport stations
-
Prisons and police facilities
-
Stadiums, schools, and corporate buildings
Egypt Techno Trade provides full installation and calibration services to ensure reliable and accurate detection.
X-Ray Baggage Scanners – Safe and Reliable Screening
X-ray baggage scanners are designed to inspect bags, parcels, and luggage for prohibited or dangerous items.
The system generates high-resolution X-ray images that allow operators to distinguish between organic (explosive materials, food, etc.) and inorganic (metal, plastic, etc.) substances.
Core Components:
-
X-ray generator and detector
-
Conveyor belt system
-
Image processing software
-
Operator console with color display
Benefits:
-
Fast and efficient inspection
-
Distinguishes between different material densities
-
Reduces human error through automated detection
-
Safe radiation levels that comply with international standards
These scanners are essential in airports, government buildings, and corporate facilities that require secure entry management.
