FAQ

Common Questions About Mobile Dimensioning

What is mobile dimensioning?

Mobile dimensioning allows you to instantly capture item measurements using a mobile device or rugged tablet—no tape measures or stationary cubing machines required. With xDIM and xPIM+, users can measure boxes, pallets, flats, and irregular items right at their location using advanced computer vision and AI.

What's the difference between xPIM and xPIM+?
xPIM is a mobile app for iOS and Android that streamlines warehouse operations by collecting and managing item master data, improving efficiency and simplifying inventory management. Capture up to 12 custom fields—including SKU, IOM, barcodes, photos, and weight—with the ability to manually enter dimensions for greater process control. 
 
xPIM+ offers all the capabilities of xPIM, plus automatic dimension capture using advanced technology only available on iPhone Pro and iPad Pro. This upgrade streamlines item master data collection, reduces errors, and lowers operational costs.

Both application versions pair with our xScale S200 for flawless, accurate weighing on-the-go.

See the full comparison here.
 
What types of items can it measure?

You can measure nearly anything, anywhere:

  • Boxes / Parcels
  • Oversized Boxes
  • Irregular Items
  • Small Items
  • Pallets
  • Flat-Packed
  • Bagged Items
  • And More!
Do I need special hardware to use it?

Yes—mobile dimensioning software must run on some sort of mobile device. Our mobile dimensioning solutions use the following:
xDIM - xTablet T1175 Rugged Tablet with an attached Intel RealSense 3D depth camera.
xPIM+ only runs on any iPhone Pro or iPad Pro using LiDAR technology. The (+) in xPIM+ indicates the upgrade for auto dimensioning.
xPIM runs on any iPhone or Android device.  Reminder, xPIM does not do auto dimensioning, but has the field for you to enter the dimensions manually.

These are purpose-built for capturing dimensions on the go, anywhere in the warehouse and field. No bulky cubing stations needed!

Where can I use it?

Anywhere. Measure products at receiving, on the warehouse floor, in reverse logistics, or even at the point of loading. Mobility is key, and xDIM and xPIM+ are built to go where your product is.

Is it faster than manual measurement?

Yes—dramatically. Dimensioning with xDIM or xPIM+ takes just seconds per item or pallet, reducing bottlenecks and speeding up workflows by eliminating manual data entry.

What happens to the data after measuring?

All captured data—including dimensions, photos, weight, and barcodes—can be exported or integrated into your existing WMS, ERP, or PIM system. It's easy to centralize SKU-level details.

Why should I automate my dimensioning process?

Automating dimensioning saves time, prevents manual entry errors, and avoids costly reclassification fees from carriers. Tools like xPIM+ and xDIM make the process seamless by instantly capturing details with a tap.

Does it help with freight classification (NMFC codes)?

Absolutely. Accurate pallet dimensions captured at the dock help validate NMFC classifications, reducing chargebacks and costly reclassification fees.

Is training required to use it?

xPIM+ requires minimal training—its intuitive design lets warehouse teams start using the app within minutes of downloading it from the App Store. xDIM is also easy to learn, with a quick setup once your tablet arrives.

How much does it cost and what’s the ROI?

ROI is typically fast, see for yourself here. Customers report time savings, fewer reclasses, improved data quality, and smoother WMS workflows—making the investment pay for itself quickly.
