Measuring volume and weight
Parcels are automatically identified, weighed and measured when passing through a DWS station. The ICR890 image-based code reader records and processes 1D and 2D image data on up to six sides of a shipment. The VMS provides the parcel dimensions so subsequent loading can be optimized. Scales can also be integrated to dynamically record weight for exact calculation of freight costs. Master data can be updated and in addition, data can be used as a basis for correctly charging senders.
