ADSI to exhibit new weighing and dimensioning solutions at ICON15
Schaumburg, Illinois – Advanced Distribution Solutions, Inc. (ADSI) is demonstrating the latest technology in weighing, dimensioning and shipping solutions at the ConnectShip ICON15 Shipping Technology Conference, June 15-17, 2015, in Chicago, IL. “Today’s shippers need fast, integrated tools that capture accurate measurements on every package without increasing labor costs,” said Bob Fischer, CEO and president of ADSI. “We’ve integrated our shipping systems with a wide range of weighing and dimensioning systems and we’re excited to be bringing some of the newest technology to the show.”
DIMENSIONING TOOLS FOR SMALL PARCEL AND LTL SHIPPING
ADSI will be demonstrating its shipping software with mobile dimensioning tools, tabletop and floor scales, and 3D imaging dimensioning solutions such as:
This new modular countertop postal scale has been designed specifically with the logistics market in mind. It is rugged, reliable and designed for long life in industrial environments. The ZP900 offers serial, USB and true Ethernet connectivity. It can be integrated into ADSI’s software as well as other third party software and hardware solutions.
The ZP900 can also be integrated into a kiosk or static dimensioning solution. The scale’s weighing mechanism is suspended underneath the platter, allowing the scale to fit flush with a counter so that boxes and parcels can be moved on and off the scale with minimum effort.
The ZP900 features Quartzell technology, a tried and tested form of weighing cell that has been further developed to offer faster, more precise weighing.
iDIMENSION 3D IMAGING SYSTEM – IRREGULAR OBJECTS? NO PROBLEM
From small businesses and mail counters to large operations and
warehouses, iDimension can be used in a variety of applications to ensure freight compliance and deter revenue loss from miscalculated dimensions.
With innovative sensing technology and 3D imaging components, the iDimension 200 is a flexible, mobile free-standing solution that captures dimensions, weights, bar codes, OCR text and images of static items. It dimensions packages, flats and irregular objects, and converts irregular objects like cylinders, spheres, tubes, polybags and irregular objects to accurate cubed dimensions.
The iDimension has no moving parts and requires virtually no alignment or special handling when placing an object under the work area. Parcels are dimensioned more accurately and faster than manual measurements. In an industry-leading 0.2 seconds, dimensions are calculated within 0.2 inches of accuracy. The iDimension system is easy to set up, can be operated in manual or automatic mode and can be integrated with most shipping scales.
SIZE-IT MOBILE DIMENSIONING TOOL
ADSI will also be demonstrating Size-IT, its mobile digital dimensioning tool. Size-IT automates the process and generates accurate results in three easy steps. Size-IT digitally captures the length, width and height dimensions as the warehouse staff measures the package and auto-calculates the dimensional weight for both domestic and international shipments.
Size-IT can be configured to wirelessly transfer dimension calculations and item package details to virtually any business application software without the need for costly integration. It works well with receiving programs, updating master inventory records, and ADSI’s order packing and shipping software solutions, as well as programs such as UPS WorldShip and FedEx Ship Manager.
“Our customers are asking for flexible options in automating the dimensioning process,” Fischer said. “We’ve assembled a complete dimensioning product line, integrated with our order fulfillment and shipping software, to meet a wide range of distribution requirements.”
