Fortress Technology Increases Detector Performance with New FM Software

The FM software analyzes the detection signal and uses an algorithm to calculate the signal strength based on a function of time and amplitude. This can significantly improve performance in certain applications, including large bags, by at least 40%. “This is great news for our existing customers who need to achieve better sensitivities to satisfy FSMA or customer specification requirements” says Steve Gidman, president of Fortress Technology.

As part of their Never Obsolete commitment to their customers, this release reinforces Fortress’s mandate to always develop their new technology to be backwards compatible and accessible without having to purchase an entirely new system. They continue to provide complete support for their existing systems with readily available parts and a global service team for their customers.
