LaseAFM-3
Automatic Freight Measurement
The system LaseAFM (Automatic Freight Measurement) for the automatic and multi-dimensional freight measurement delivers highly accurate measurement data for freight forwarders and ensures higher transperency as well assaving of time in transshipment stations. By the automatic detection of the volume, dimension, weight, freight-ID and image data, manual measurements and transcription errors are excluded within the freight documentation process.
System
With the use of state-of-the-art 3D-Laser scanners (mounted at the four portal corners) LaseAFM measures all dimensions with highest accuracy. The measurement process starts at the push of a button at the operator terminal or by scanning the freight-ID (if Module I – Ident is applied).
Even during the 3D-Laser measurement also HD pictures of the freight object are taken for comprehensive consignment information. The complete freight measurement procedure only takes a few seconds and all detected freight information is forwarded to the warehouse management system (WMS). A further module for the generation of weight measurement data (Module W – Weight) can be added optionally.
The accurate and automatic 3D-Laser volume measurement combined with the freight weight generate reliable freight data and avoid wrong freight rating.
The flexible variants of the LaseAFM product family (LaseAFM-2, LaseAFM-3, LaseAFM-4, LaseAFM-C5, LaseAFM-Wrapper) ensure that shipper and carrier remain partners and that their relationship is not burdened by incorrect freight dimensions or weight data.
In addition, automatic measurement can reduce turnaround time by providing knowledge of accurate freight data for optimal loading of containers and trucks. Accordingly, the highly flexible and mobile LaseAFM system has many advantages.
