System solutions 

Regardless of size or shape, knowledge about the exact volume of goods is valuable in order to optimize parcel handling. Volume measurement systems (VMS) from SICK record the shape of almost any object or package– even if oversized. The volume is reliably calculated, reducing costs.

No matter if you handle small, large, heavy or lightweight packages, SICK has a solution. The combination of weight and volume defines the freight costs of packages. Dimensioning Weighing Scanning Systems (DWS) from SICK automatically measure weight and volume of packages and identify them by reading 1D or 2D codes.

SICK's code reading systems help optimize logistics processes. The omni-directional OPS (Omni-Portal System) is a complete, optimized system for identifying bar codes on goods and freight. Customized configurations for a number of applications are possible. The ICR890 is a CCD-based camera system that reads 1D and 2D bar codes used in high-performance sortation systems. It provides the highest available resolution and the best image quality on the market. And, To make sure that your luggage gets sorted quickly and transferred to the correct destination, SICK offers ALIS – a state-of-the-art bar code reader and RFID system that is designed to identify IATA bar codes and/or RFID tags on airport luggage.
