Stop Threats at the Door — Before They Ever Become an Incident.

The safety of the people inside your facility depends on what you prevent from entering it. In high-traffic or high-security environments — government buildings, airports, courts, mosques, hospitals, schools, hotels, and major events — the ability to rapidly and accurately screen individuals and their belongings for concealed threats is not optional. It is essential.

TCC supplies, installs, and commissions advanced threat detection and prohibited item screening systems for organizations across Saudi Arabia that have a responsibility to protect people, assets, and sensitive environments. Our solutions include X-ray baggage screening systems, walk-through metal detectors, handheld metal detectors, and under-vehicle inspection systems — all sourced from globally trusted manufacturers and deployed by our certified security systems engineers.

We are proud to partner with Astrophysics Inc. — an internationally recognized industry leader in X-ray inspection and threat detection technology — to bring world-class screening capability to Saudi facilities of every scale and type.

Every system TCC deploys is configured, calibrated, and tested to ensure maximum detection accuracy while maintaining an efficient, respectful screening experience for all users. We support our installations with operator training, preventive maintenance contracts, and rapid technical response — so your screening capability never has a gap.

Maximum Detection Probability

TCC deploys layered, complementary detection technologies — X-ray, metal detection, trace detection, and AI automatic threat recognition — that together achieve significantly higher detection probabilities than any single technology alone, while minimizing false alarm rates that slow throughput and erode operator confidence. No single concealment method defeats a properly layered screening architecture.

AI-Powered Automatic Threat Recognition

Advanced AI and deep-learning Automatic Threat Recognition (ATR) software continuously analyses X-ray imagery in real time — automatically highlighting suspect objects, prohibited item shapes, and anomalous density profiles with colour-coded alerts. ATR reduces reliance on sustained operator attention, eliminates human inconsistency across long shifts, and dramatically improves detection reliability at high-throughput checkpoints.

High Throughput Without Compromise

TCC designs screening checkpoint configurations — lane count, conveyor speeds, detector sensitivities, and secondary screening workflows — that achieve the maximum person or vehicle throughput rate demanded by the facility while maintaining zero compromise on detection performance. Efficient flow management reduces congestion, queue times, and visitor frustration without sacrificing the security posture that protects the facility.

Key Features:

A comprehensive, layered threat detection capability covering personnel, baggage, vehicles, and perimeter — engineered for maximum detection with minimum disruption.

X-Ray Baggage & Parcel Inspection Systems

TCC supplies and installs single-view, dual-view, and multi-view X-ray inspection systems for baggage, carry-on items, parcels, and mail — with tunnel sizes from compact desktop units to large-format systems capable of screening oversized luggage and cargo pallets. Advanced features include automatic threat detection (ATD) image analysis, organic/inorganic/metallic colour differentiation, high-penetration X-ray generators for dense packages, and networked image review enabling remote second-opinion screening by a supervisor.

Walk-Through Metal Detection (WTMD) Portals

Multi-zone walk-through metal detection portals that precisely locate the vertical position of a metallic object on the body — enabling security officers to conduct targeted pat-downs rather than full-body searches, dramatically improving throughput and reducing screening time per person. TCC deploys WTMD portals calibrated to discriminate between harmless metallic objects (belt buckles, coins) and genuine security threats (firearms, knives, metallic IED components) using multi-frequency analysis and programmable sensitivity zones.

Explosive Trace Detection (ETD)

Bench-top and portable ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) based explosive trace detection instruments that analyse swab samples from baggage surfaces, hands, and clothing — identifying trace quantities of over 40 explosive compounds, including RDX, PETN, TNT, TATP, HMTD, and narcotics, in under 10 seconds per sample. TCC deploys ETD systems at primary and secondary screening positions, VIP entry lanes, and as supplementary verification tools when X-ray imagery raises suspicion of concealed explosive devices.

Under-Vehicle Inspection Systems (UVIS)

Fixed and portable under-vehicle inspection systems using high-resolution camera arrays, LED illumination, and AI-driven change detection software to inspect the underside of vehicles for magnetic attach devices, IEDs, contraband packages, and vehicle modifications. Fixed UVIS installations are embedded into vehicle access lanes, providing automatic vehicle underside scanning without stopping or slowing the vehicle — creating seamless, high-throughput perimeter security at gatehouse entry points.

Millimetre-Wave & Body Scanning Systems

Advanced Active Millimetre-Wave (AMMW) personnel screening portals that detect non-metallic threats concealed on the body — including ceramic knives, composite firearms, plastic explosives, narcotics packages, and other items invisible to metal detectors — using reflected millimetre-wave radio energy to produce a privacy-safe outline image with threat areas highlighted automatically. Deployed at high-security building entrances, VIP access points, and correctional facilities where comprehensive body screening is required.

CT (Computed Tomography) Baggage Screening

Next-generation computed tomography (CT) baggage scanners produce fully three-dimensional, 360° imagery of bag contents — enabling unambiguous threat identification of IEDs, liquids, gels, and complex concealment methods that may defeat conventional 2D X-ray systems. CT systems feature automated explosive detection (AED) and automatic threat recognition, dramatically reducing the need to open bags for manual inspection and enabling 100% screening of liquids and electronics without removal from bags.

AI Automatic Threat Recognition (ATR) Software

TCC integrates AI-powered Automatic Threat Recognition software across all X-ray and CT screening systems — continuously analysing imagery in real time using deep neural networks trained on hundreds of thousands of threat and non-threat object images. The system overlays colour-coded threat alerts directly on the X-ray image, prompts the operator to evaluate flagged items, logs all alerts and operator decisions for audit and training purposes, and continuously improves detection performance through machine learning as new threat profiles are added to the database.

Checkpoint Integration & Centralized Management

TCC integrates all threat detection equipment — X-ray, WTMD, ETD, UVIS, and body scanners — into a unified checkpoint management platform that provides real-time operational status monitoring, lane throughput metrics, alarm logging, operator performance analytics, equipment health dashboards, and centralized image archive for audit and investigation. Integration with CCTV, access control, and alarm systems ensures a coordinated security response when a prohibited item or threat is identified at any checkpoint across the facility.

Our Delivery Methodology

TCC Threat Detection System Implementation Working Process

Security Threat Assessment & Checkpoint Analysis

TCC begins every threat detection project with a structured security threat and vulnerability assessment — identifying the specific threat actors and prohibited items relevant to the facility, mapping all entry points and access lanes, measuring peak and average throughput volumes (persons and vehicles per hour), reviewing any applicable regulatory or authority requirements (e.g., GACA, NCSC, Ministry of Interior standards), and defining the target detection performance and false alarm rate specifications. The output is a validated threat model and checkpoint design brief that drives all subsequent technology selection and configuration decisions.

Technology Selection & Checkpoint Design

Based on the threat assessment, TCC engineers design the optimal screening architecture for each checkpoint — selecting the right combination of X-ray (single-view, dual-view, or CT), WTMD, body scanner, ETD, and UVIS technologies, specifying the number of screening lanes required to meet throughput targets, designing the physical checkpoint layout and queue management flow, and defining the secondary screening workflow. A comprehensive equipment specification, checkpoint layout drawing, and power and network infrastructure plan are produced and reviewed with the client and any applicable authority before procurement commences.

Site Preparation & Infrastructure Installation

TCC manages all checkpoint infrastructure preparation — coordinating civil works for X-ray system foundations and floor penetrations, installing dedicated electrical supply circuits meeting the power requirements of each screening system, routing network and control cabling, installing operator workstations and secondary screening benches, deploying CCTV cameras covering all screening lanes, and fitting queue management barriers and signage. All infrastructure work is completed and inspected before screening equipment delivery and installation begins.

Equipment Installation & System Integration

TCC's certified installation teams install and commission all screening equipment — positioning and levelling X-ray systems, installing WTMD portals and body scanners at precise lane positions, deploying UVIS systems in vehicle lanes, installing ETD instruments at operator stations, and connecting all equipment to the checkpoint management network. All detection systems are integrated with the central alarm management platform, CCTV, and access control systems — ensuring coordinated, logged responses to every alarm event across the screening checkpoint.

Calibration, Testing & Regulatory Acceptance

Every detection system is calibrated to the specified sensitivity settings using certified threat simulant test objects — validating detection performance against the agreed threat probability and false alarm specifications. WTMD portals are zone-calibrated and tested with metal test pieces at defined positions. ETD instruments are standardized and validated against certified reference samples. X-ray ATR algorithms are configured and tested with approved threat image libraries. Where regulatory acceptance is required (e.g., GACA for aviation security), TCC supports the full formal evaluation and approval process with the relevant authority.

Operator Training, Handover & AMC Support

TCC delivers comprehensive, role-specific training for all screening personnel — X-ray image interpretation, WTMD alarm response and pat-down procedures, ETD swabbing technique and sample interpretation, body scanner operation, UVIS image analysis, and secondary screening workflow. Training incorporates both equipment operation and security protocols aligned with the facility's Standard Operating Procedures. Supervisor-level training covers alarm statistics, operator performance review, equipment calibration checks, and shift management.
