How to choose the ideal dimensioning system for your business

In today’s fast-paced logistics landscape, automated dimensioning systems have become indispensable. As warehouses, distribution centers, and freight operations continue to evolve, the demand for precise volumetric data is greater than ever. Accurate parcel dimensioning enables cost-effective shipping, optimized warehouse storage, and seamless supply chain management, ultimately leading to higher efficiency and profitability.

For businesses in warehousing, courier services, freight forwarding, and retail, integrating an ai-powered dimensioning system can significantly increase revenue, reduce operational costs, and enhance overall logistics efficiency.

Why does your business need an automated dimensioning system

Warehousing & Couriers:

Optimized parcel measurement improves packaging efficiency and reduces shipping costs, increasing revenue by up to 18%.

Freight Forwarders:

Traditional manual measuring methods require significant labor, leading to higher costs and human errors. A computer vision-based dimensioning system can cut labor costs by over 80% while boosting accuracy.

Retail & E-commerce:

Precise volumetric data allows companies to maximize warehouse storage capacity by up to 25%, ensuring better inventory management and streamlined logistics.

‍

Studies show that an experienced employee takes around 2 minutes to measure a package, with 49% of customer-entered data being inaccurate, leading to costly errors.

In contrast, CubiQ automated dimensioning systems capture precise dimensions and weight in just 1 second, delivering 99% accuracy.

With automation, businesses can increase productivity by up to 200%, reduce errors, and streamline workflows—leading to higher efficiency and cost savings.

Four key factors to consider when choosing a dimensioning system what do you need to measure?

Before selecting a dimensioning system, define your specific requirements:

• Object size: are you measuring small parcels, large boxes, or oversized pallets?
• Measuring volume: how many items do you process daily?
• Shape complexity: do your items have regular or irregular shapes?
• Application: will you be measuring boxes, pallets, or both?

These insights help determine the right dimensioning technology for your logistics operation. Additionally, consider whether the syste will be fixed at an entry/exit point, mobile, or strategically positioned within a distribution center for maximum efficiency.

How will you use dimensional data?

Clearly define how your business will utilize dimensional weight data to improve logistics efficiency:

• Distribution centers: Optimize storage utilization and enable intelligent product placement.
• Warehouse management systems (WMS): Ensure seamless integration with ERP software to automate inventory tracking and shipment calculations.
• Freight & Shipping: Accurately calculate dimensional weight pricing to prevent revenue loss and optimize carrier selection.

A high-precision dimensioning system ensures accurate data entry into your WMS, improving warehouse efficiency, reducing errors, and enhancing logistics decision-making.

What level of efficiency do you need?

Selecting the right dimensioning solution depends on your operational scale and speed requirements:

For small to mid-sized packages → CubiQ ONE
