Boxes

The original xDIM captures small to medium sized box dimensions in under a second by aiming a rugged tablet at the corner of a box. For larger boxes like TVs, furniture and appliances, use the 2-step method. 

Measurement capacity: 3-inches to 48-inches (4-feet) NTEP Certified, Legal for Trade.

Large boxes: 48-inches (4 feet) to 96-inches (8 feet) 

xdim-pallete

Pallets

xDIM for pallets uses an AI-powered two-step method, by aiming a rugged tablet at the front, then side of the pallet. Ideal for storage optimization, the software can capture cleanly stacked, square payload pallets as well as non-square payloads, such as barrels or stacks of piping.  

Measurement capacity: Up to 96-inches (8 feet)
