3DX-RAY UNIT SIGNS OEM SUPPLY AGREEMENT WITH MIRALOGIX
The Board of Image Scan, specialist in the field of real-time 3D and 2D x-ray imaging for the 'Homeland Security' and 'Industrial Inspection' markets, is pleased to announce that its trading subsidiary, 3DX-RAY Ltd, has signed an OEM supply agreement with the Miralogix, part of Reflect Scientific Inc. (OTCBB: RSCF) for the integration of its successful x-ray products into Miralogix Catpro Environmental Catalyst Inspection Systems.
US Government mandates on environmental quality have made the treatment of diesel exhaust an industry imperative, creating continuing market potential for Miralogix's Catpro inspection systems. The incorporation of specialist x-ray capability into the demanding process of diesel and automotive catalyst inspection creates a clear competitive advantage for Catpro.
