Army Walk-through Metal Detector
The Army Walk-through Metal Detector is a gate-style screening unit for base entry points, checkpoints and event sites, where each person walks through the frame and the gate alarms on hidden metal. We build it in China for export as a single unit, a bulk lot or a tender quantity, wired to the power supply of the country where it will stand.
How this walk-through gate screens people
A gate of this type usually works by electromagnetic induction. Coils in the side panels set up a field, and metal carried through the frame disturbs it. The unit then gives a visible and audible alarm, so the guard knows to run a hand search. This model sits in our Bomb Detection Equipments line, and the maker lists these features:
- Weatherproof and waterproof housing for outdoor posts
- High detection uniformity across the full height of the frame
- High discrimination, so keys and coins cause fewer false alarms
- A bright double display that guards can read from either side
- Shows single or multiple metal locations on the body
- Very fast detection, which keeps queues moving
- High immunity to outside interference from nearby motors or radios
- Remote programming with networking for several gates
The housing is usually polymer or metal, and the specification table below marks those values as typical. We confirm the exact build for your order.
What to check before ordering an Army Walk-through Metal Detector
Most changes to a quote come from site details, not the gate itself. Before production we confirm:
- The mains voltage and frequency at the site, and whether a backup supply is needed
- The number of detection zones and the display layout you want
- Whether the gate stands indoors or at an open-air checkpoint
- How many gates must be linked for remote programming
For a tender, we recommend sending the screening clause from the document, so we can match it line by line rather than guess.
Export and documents
We ship to importers, contractors and government buyers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and other markets. Each gate is packed in seaworthy export crating, shipped as part-load or in a full container, and sent with a commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and bill of lading.
