Recent technologies have opened the door to opportunities for warehouses and logistics companies to become more efficient and more competitive. Warehouse productivity and efficiency are among the most significant objectives and differentiators for logistics companies worldwide. Without efficient warehouse processes, companies are compelled to expand their workforce so as to keep up with the high levels of service demands.
Yet, while adding extra workforce may enable the organization to keep up with the demand, doing so may cause the decline of a companies bottom line and create an operation more prone to human error.
Automatic Product Dimensioning
To address the logistic industries demand for efficiency and productivity, DT Researchs rugged tablets with the built-in 3D RealSense camera allows warehouses to enhance their capability and productivity with its automatic dimensioning of products and shipments – including pallets and boxes, cargo and luggage. This feature automatically measures the dimensions of a product, its weight, and volume – recording it into the tablet.
The integrated 3D RealSense camera scans objects when they arrive at the warehouse and before they are shipped, to ensure accuracy of the delivery while also speeding up the processing of shipments into the warehouse and delivery time when shipping products out. This offers innovative solutions for volume and 3D scanning such as monitoring pallet dimensions, optimizing the volume of goods in the warehouse and in transporting goods to determine if any products were lost in transit. This 3D camera is also great for detecting damage to goods and load carriers, while also documenting when damage occurs and keeping a log of it for future access. Volume dimensioning also allows for accurate billing, shipping and receiving, and quality assurance (ensuring goods are shipped and received in good condition).
With a focus in keeping abreast with warehouse solutions and warehouse innovations, rugged tablets answer the needs of warehouse work conditions and process flows. Rugged tablets for warehouses are designed to be dust and water-resistant and are able to withstand vibrations and extreme weather conditions and temperature fluctuations from extremely cold to extremely hot. Warehouses located in desert temperatures are not a problem for rugged tablets, neither are warehouses in states with extreme winters such as Minnesota.
Rugged tablets for warehouses are built with a fast processor and integrated systems that are capable of handling complex data collection and tracking applications. DT Researchs rugged tablet offers solutions that improve the processes of warehouse logistics, making them the perfect technology partner for office personnel and field workers who need sign-offs on shipped products quickly in the field.
