FREIGHT CHECK POINT FCP 3200
TURN KEY SOLUTION for freight forwarding companies
The "Freight Check Point 3200" is specially designed for use
in modern freight companies and distribution centers. With its modular
structure it automatically measures volume, dimensions and weight of
pallets and other goods.
Freight Check Point 3200 combines all the features needed for
automatization of processes in the logistics area:
- Volume measurement of loaded pallets and bulky goods
- Dynamic weight measurement
- Information output via shipment label including 2-D-Code (PDF-Code)
- Operation control (e.g. tow-chain conveyor)
- Data communication between warehouse / sorting area and administrative
host computer
|
Collection of real shipment data
|
|
The collection of "real" data from shipping units gives the
freight forwarding company valuable information concerning the structure
of its shipments.
- volume
- dimensions (length / width / height)
- registration of bulky and special goods
- information on excess weight and excess dimensions
- real shipment weight
- shipment number registration
- control of pool pallets and containers
This information can in turn be used for calculation and control of
transport costs.
|
High measurement capacity
|
|
The Freight Check Point´s high capacity and versatility lead to
improved operational quality and security.
|
Volume measurement
|
|
Volume and dimensions are measured using two high-resolution SICK
LMS 200 laser scanners. With the sensors being mounted overhead,
shipments with excess width or length can also be measured.
|
Dynamic weighing system
|
|
For weighing of goods the Freight Check Point 3200 is equipped
with a dynamic scale system designed for use in harsh operational
environments.
|
Code readers
|
|
The Freight Check Point 3200 can be equipped with different types
of code reading systems which are adapted to the specific needs of
each application.
|
Conveying systems
|
|
The Freight Check Point 3200 can be combined with automated
freight sorting systems (e.g. tow-chain conveyors).
|
High reliability
|
|
The robust design of the Freight Check Point 3200 and its
components ensure high reliability.
|
Pool pallet control
|
|
Using Freight Check Point 3200 enables the forwarder to carry
out control and accounting of pool pallets and other pool containers.
|
Freight capacity control
|
|
The shipment data obtained from the Freight Check Point 3200
serves the freight forwarder as a base for improved capacity planning
and control.
|
Hardware and network compatibility
|
|
The measurement data from each shipping unit is sent to the host
computer via the local network.
Freight Check Point 3200 is compatible with all hardware and network
platforms (eg. DOS / UNIX / AS400 / Novell / TCP-IP etc.).
|
Integration into existing systems
|
|
The Freight Check Point 3200 and its modules can also be integrated
into existing warehouses and sorting systems.
|
Improvement of quality standards
|
|
The clear and unequivocal shipping label generated at the Freight
Check Point 3200 improves the quality of the cross dock operation.
Time consuming search for shipping units and loading errors at the
dock door are minimized.
