3DX-RAY has announced that the AXIS CXi mailroom screening system has been chosen to bolster security at an embassy in Switzerland.
The system will safeguard against threats such as postal bombs and hazardous substances delivered via mail and parcels. This deployment builds upon growing global trust in the AXIS CXi as a secure option for protecting diplomatic missions and other high-risk facilities.
Enhanced Screening Capabilities
The AXIS CXi offers significant advancements in mailroom screening technology. Its color imaging features allow operators to distinguish objects not just by shape but also by material composition.
Organic materials like explosives, narcotics, and food show up in orange, while metals including firearms and IED components appear in blue. Inorganic materials often linked with explosive devices are displayed in green, with a greyscale mode aiding in precise shape identification.
Efficiency in Security Operations

This comprehensive visualization helps operators, even those with minimal training, conduct more accurate and efficient threat assessments. The technology ensures robust security measures are implemented without compromising operational efficiency.
The AXIS CXi has undergone evaluation using the UK Mail Screening Test Piece (MSTP), a method recognized for assessing imaging performance in screening systems. This evaluation covers key parameters such as resolution and penetration, offering critical insights for organizations seeking effective mail security strategies following PAS 97:2021 principles.
Design and Flexibility
The AXIS CXi not only excels in imaging performance but also incorporates innovative design elements. With a substantial inspection chamber and compact form, it allows the screening of mail, parcels, and larger items like bags and cabin luggage. Its fully mobile setup and sleek, unobtrusive design make it ideal for sensitive environments like embassies, where both security and aesthetics are vital.
Commitment to Security Solutions
With this order, 3DX-RAY strengthens its position in the European security market
Vince Deery, CEO of 3DX-RAY, stated, "Embassies face a unique and evolving range of threats, with mailrooms often serving as the first line of defense against suspicious packages and hazardous materials. AXIS CXi was developed to bring the sophisticated color differentiation technology traditionally associated with airport baggage screening into a compact and versatile platform suitable for government and diplomatic facilities.”
He further elaborated, "We are delighted to secure this latest embassy installation in Switzerland, which further expands the international footprint of the AXIS CXi. The selection of our system by another diplomatic mission reflects the growing demand for advanced screening solutions that combine exceptional imaging performance, ease of use, and operational flexibility. AXIS CXi continues to demonstrate its ability to meet the security needs of organizations where trust, reliability, and rapid threat detection are critical."
With this order, 3DX-RAY strengthens its position in the European security market. The burgeoning need for advanced, user-friendly screening technologies continues to address evolving threats to diplomatic, governmental, and critical infrastructure facilities.
3DX-RAY is pleased to announce that its advanced AXIS CXi mailroom screening system has been selected to enhance security at an embassy in Switzerland, providing protection against postal bombs, hazardous substances, and other prohibited items delivered through the mail and parcel network.
This latest deployment further demonstrates the growing international confidence in the AXIS CXi as a highly effective solution for safeguarding diplomatic missions and other high-security facilities.
Providing additional support
The AXIS CXi represents a significant advancement in mailroom screening technology. Its color imaging capability enables operators not only to identify the shape of concealed objects but also to assess the composition of materials.
Organic materials—including explosives, narcotics, chemicals, and even benign items such as food—are highlighted in orange. Metals such as firearms, knives, and potential IED components appear in blue, while inorganic materials commonly associated with improvised explosive devices are shown in green. A greyscale mode provides additional support for precise shape recognition.
Maintaining operational efficiency
This multi-layered visualization allows operators, even with minimal training, to conduct more accurate, efficient, and confident assessments, helping organizations strengthen security while maintaining operational efficiency.
The AXIS CXi cabinet X-ray system has been evaluated using the UK Mail Screening Test Piece (MSTP), a recognized methodology for assessing imaging performance in mail screening systems. The evaluation includes Tests 1–8, which examine factors such as resolution, penetration, and the identification of complex materials within mail items. These results provide an indication of system performance and are intended to support organizations in selecting appropriate screening capabilities as part of a broader mail security strategy aligned with the principles of PAS 97:2021.
Beyond imaging performance
Beyond imaging performance, the AXIS CXi introduces a notable innovation in system design. It combines an exceptionally large inspection chamber with a compact footprint, enabling the screening of not only mail and parcels but also larger items such as bags and aircraft cabin luggage.
The system is fully mobile and features a modern, unobtrusive design, making it particularly well suited to embassy environments where security, flexibility, and aesthetics are equally important.
