X-Ray screening

by Mark Rowe

In the mailroom of Lloyd’s Bank Group Plc in Cardiff, Totalpost Services Plc has installed an Astrophysics XIS 6040 X-Ray security screening device.

It’s intended for screening incoming mail and parcels for hidden threats. The building receives over 200 items of mail and parcels a day, and each one is screened via the x-ray screening device. All of the post room, security and receptionist staff have been trained on the machine by Totalpost, and will continue to receive training as required. Totalpost is also providing full maintenance and servicing of the machine

Kelley Martin, Facilities Manager at Lloyds Cardiff says: “The safety of our staff and visitors is paramount and as a bank we have a responsibility to ensure that everything we do is secure. Therefore choosing the right security screening device for our mailroom was essential. Screening the mail and parcels is part of our everyday process, the machine is reliable, extremely easy to use and gives us all peace of mind. The service we have received from the point of order through to install and aftercare has been outstanding and I would not hesitate to recommend Totalpost.”

The XIS 6040 is described by the makers as a compact machine that has tunnel opening dimensions of 60mm by 40mm for taking standard mailroom letters and parcels. It provides high resolution images. Theproduct is also used at prisons, courts and public buildings.

David Hymers, Managing Director at Totalpost says: “Many corporate mailrooms are now looking to increase their security and protect staff by screening incoming mail for hidden threats. An X-Ray screening device such as the XIS 6040 is ideal for this as it is easy to use and is very compact.”
