IMAGE SCAN HOLDINGS SECURES FOLLOW-ON JOHNSON MATTHEY ORDER FOR ITS MDXI X-RAY
INSPECTION SYSTEM
Image Scan Holdings PLC (AIM: IGE), a provider of leading real-time multi-view,
X-ray imaging solutions, today confirmed that its wholly owned subsidiary,
3DX-Ray Limited, has secured a follow-on order from Johnson Matthey for a
variant of their recently launched MDXI-300™ X-ray inspection system.
The most recent order is for a MDXI-400™ which is one of the family of fully
integrated, transportable, turn-key X-ray inspection systems from 3DX-Ray
Limited that provides high-resolution 3D X-ray inspection capability. The
modular design of the MDXI-400™ system means it can easily be incorporated into
a wide variety of in-line, on-line and off-line end user applications whether
in the laboratory or factory.
Dave Godden, Project Manager at Johnson Matthey, commented:
"Because the MDXI is a Windows XP™ based operating system - it will allow us to
integrate it cost-efficiently into our current production lines in Royston. We
have already experienced the value that Image Scan's X-ray technology delivers
and we are pleased to include this additional capability."
Nicholas Fox, Chief Executive of Image Scan Holdings plc, added:
"We are naturally delighted with this latest order. It serves as a further
endorsement of the commercial benefits our solutions provide in the industrial
inspection market-place where issues of cost, accuracy of detection, and
flexibility are all of equal importance."
The contract includes supplying an in-line version of the MDXI-400™,
integrating it with existing equipment and manufacturing systems, as well as
technical support and the "ruggedisation" of the product to meet the stringent
needs of the customer's production facility.
