YEHUD, Israel, March 21, 2017 --

Magal Security Systems Ltd. today announced that it received its first serial order for its revolutionary RoboGuard® system. The customer, which is an Israeli governmental customer, recently announced the RoboGuard® system to be operational. The announcement followed a series of rigorous in-the-field tests and ongoing inspections, conducted by the customer. The RoboGuard® system is also being evaluated by other governmental agencies for the perimeter security of various critical sites.



The RoboGuard system will be presented at the Milipol Asia-Pacific Homeland Security International exhibition to be held in Singapore during 4-6 April 2017.

RoboGuard® is Magal's revolutionary agile scout robot, which runs along secured fences, ensuring perimeter integrity and is capable of responding promptly to intrusion alerts. It has already been successfully tested for border security. It consists of an autonomous unit, traveling on a monorail and carrying several sensors. RoboGuard® has two operating modes: routine patrol mode, in which it travels autonomously scanning and searching for perimeter anomalies or nearby suspected objects and response mode, in which RoboGuard® rushes promptly to home in on a suspected intrusion, acting as a first responder. The RoboGuard® provides customers with operational efficiencies by reducing manpower, patrol vehicles and related equipment.

Commented Saar Koursh, CEO of Magal-S3, "We are very pleased with this initial launch order and are proud that our revolutionary RoboGuard® has successfully met the rigorous testing and inspection procedures of our launching customer. We value the selection of RoboGuard® by this particular customer, which serves as a stamp of approval at the highest level for this unique perimeter intrusion deduction system. We see further considerable interest from our customers looking to save manpower costs with our Roboguard® systems."
