Also utilized for automating dimension measurement

On conveyance lines in logistics warehouses and manufacturing plants, product traceability management is essential. However, performing barcode reading on cardboard boxes moving at high speeds on a conveyor and dimension measurement for freight calculation and storage efficiency in separate processes leads to issues like increased equipment costs, larger installation space, and reduced productivity.

This application solves these challenges in a one-stop solution by utilizing KEYENCE's ST Series scan tunnel system. The ST Series instantly and stably reads 1D/2D codes on cardboard boxes of various sizes and positions with its overwhelming reading depth and wide-field scanning. Furthermore, it automatically measures the length, width, and height (3 dimensions) of the items simultaneously with code reading. This allows barcode information and volume data to be linked in real-time, facilitating the construction of an accurate DWS (Dimension, Weight, Scanning) system.

This solution promotes the automation of sorting operations, optimization of freight charges, and effective use of warehouse space, contributing to a dramatic improvement in productivity and labor savings in logistics and manufacturing sites.
