Small DC Motors Power Reliable Handheld Explosives Detector

The XPAK G2 provides accurate, fast results in an easy-to-use unit that leverages robust, high-torque-density Brushed DC Motors.

Explosives present an ongoing risk today, whether in the battlefield, city streets, or around highvalue targets like airports. Although a range of technologies for explosives detection exists, many of them involve expensive, fragile, large-frame instruments that require training to operate. When RedXDefense set out to develop a handheld field unit to detect various hazardous materials, they focused on designing a fast, rugged, and easyto- use device targeted for operation by soldiers or dockworkers, not scientists. The result is the XPAK family of products, which leverages compact, high-torque motors from MICROMO.
