Static station or moving measurement?
A stationary capture step and an in-motion line have different spacing, operator and integration needs. Specify the required parcel mix and peak workflow before selecting the measurement arrangement.
Solution studio
Parcel weighing, scanning & shipping data solutions
Build a dispatch workflow that associates parcel identity, weight and dimensions with a shipping record and a clear exception process.
A shipping record is useful only when the measurements belong to the correct parcel. Plan how the label is read, when the weight and dimensions are accepted and where an exception goes. The conveyor, DWS equipment and warehouse software need to agree on the same parcel identity throughout the transaction.
How the goods move
- Present a single parcel
Control parcel separation and position before the capture zone.
Equipment in this solution - Capture the parcel record
Combine barcode, weight and dimensions in the configured measurement process.
Equipment in this solution - Confirm or investigate
Release accepted parcels and send exceptions to a defined manual or automated recovery point.

DWS measurement systems
Custom-made parcel dimensioning, weighing and scanning stations. Configure conveyor dimensions, presentation, measurement arrangement and data interfaces around your parcel flow.
Belt conveyors
Custom-made belt conveyors for cartons and unit loads. Configure the length, width, transfer heights, belt surface and controls to connect your handling process.
Parcel sorting systems
Custom-made parcel sorting systems planned around your goods, destinations and available layout. Configure conveying widths, heights, induction, diversion and controls as one routing project.
Choose the right arrangement
Agree what the data will be used for
Warehouse checks, carrier data and commercial billing may require different acceptance criteria. Define units, tolerances, calibration, record retention and any required legal-metrology approval for the intended use.
Prepare your project brief
- Parcel range, barcode types and label locations
- Required units, accuracy criteria, intended data use and calibration process
- Warehouse interface, duplicate-read rules and recovery procedure
Agree the complete project scope
The proposal defines the goods, layout, controls, software interfaces, guarding, delivery and commissioning responsibilities. Capacity and acceptance criteria are specified for the selected configuration.
Planning questions
Does DWS automatically approve carrier billing?
No universal approval is implied. Confirm the carrier’s data requirements, measurement acceptance and any certification needed for the intended commercial use in the project specification.
