Big tunnel, tight timeline
A successful large-tunnel Hissco cargo X-ray installation for an air-freight operator in the Heathrow area — from delivery to screening without missing a shipping day.
Air cargo screening machines are the heavyweights of the fleet — tunnel openings up to 1.8 metres square, multi-tonne conveyor loads, and buildings that were rarely designed with them in mind. Getting one in, positioned, powered and certified is a specialist job.
As exclusive UK & Ireland distributor for Hissco International, RedteQ supplied, installed and commissioned a large-tunnel Hissco cargo X-ray for a freight operator near Heathrow in 2026 — route survey, rigging, positioning, commissioning, radiation compliance and operator familiarisation, all by our own team.
Why freight operators call us
- The full Hissco range — from checkpoint scanners to the HS 1818 DV full-pallet system
- Installation is ours, end to end — surveys, rigging, commissioning and IRR17 compliance
- Support after the photo — nationwide maintenance from the team that installed it
