Clear insights to help you streamline automation in your warehouse.

What is mobile dimensioning?

Mobile dimensioning uses a tablet or handheld device to quickly capture product dimensions, weights, and item data - without the need for bulky fixed systems. Here at MobileDemand, we offer two solutions, xDIM & xPIM.

How does mobile dimensioning support automation planning?

Accurate product data is essential for automation. Mobile dimensioning provides the precise measurements and item details needed to optimize robot pathing, storage layouts, and system integration. The more a company knows, the better equipped they are to create the most efficient, feasible plan, saving you time and money with them as well.

How is mobile dimensioning different from fixed systems?

Mobile dimensioning is up to 3x faster and 1/3 the cost of fixed systems. It’s portable, scalable, and doesn’t require major infrastructure changes.

What types of data can be captured?

Dimensions, weights, barcodes, SKUs, and other product attributes can all be captured in seconds, ensuring a complete digital record.

How does mobile dimensioning improve ROI?

By reducing manual data entry, errors, and inefficiencies, mobile dimensioning saves time, cuts labor costs, and accelerates automation readiness.

Is mobile dimensioning easy to implement?

Yes - devices are mobile and user-friendly, making deployment quick and scalable across warehouses and distribution centers.

If I already have a fixed system, can I still add mobile dimensioning?

Absolutely. Mobile dimensioning complements fixed systems by offering flexibility where fixed units can’t reach. It’s ideal for overflow, large or irregular items, or areas of the warehouse not covered by your existing setup.

Will I be out more money if I add mobile dimensioning after investing in a fixed system?

No - mobile dimensioning actually helps maximize your investment. By filling coverage gaps, reducing bottlenecks, and capturing data faster, mobile units extend the value of your fixed system and accelerate ROI.
