Compact Cubing System for Simple, Low Cost Dimensioning



Nov 11, 2007

METTLER TOLEDO is pleased to announce the release of a new line of CS5400 BarCoded YardStick(TM) Dimensioning Systems. The CS5400 is an economical, semi-automated cubing solution for capturing product and parcel weight, dimensions and product ID data.

As one of the easiest to use and lowest cost solutions around the CS5400 is robust, easily integrated, and provides a quick return on investment.

Simple Design for Easy Use

The CS5400 Bar-Coded YardStick(TM) occupies a small space and is easily integrated into warehouse or shipping operations. The system is simple to operate with a special bar-coded measuring strip positioned on each axis. The operator needs only to place the package into the corner and scan the first barcode at each axis. The weight is captured automatically while the dimensions are measured.

Low Cost Solution for a number of Applications

A key target application for the CS5400 is the collection of product size and weight data for WMS systems. Companies need massive amounts of data when they convert to a new WMS and doing it by hand just isn't feasible.

The CS5400 system is also designed for shipping and manifesting applications. It can be inserted anywhere in a company's pick, pack and ship process. With both PC-based and stand-alone configurations, the CS5400 makes it easy to collect and communicate parcel data to carrier shipping software. By providing accurate and complete data on every parcel, companies avoid Dim-weight back charges from their parcel carrier and ensure that customers are invoiced correctly.
