MultiScan: Mobile Volume Measuring Device for Digital Master Data Recording

Are you adding new items to your product range on a daily basis? Or are you having trouble keeping track of the exact workload of your warehouse? MultiScan, our mobile volume measuring device, allows you to record the master data of all your products automatically thanks to the interplay of different measurement and weighing technologies – no matter whether your goods are heavy and rigid or light and flexible, in the goods-in area or further back in the warehouse.  

What does MultiScan have to offer?

MultiScan can do it all: measure, weigh and categorize master data. The 3D measurement device fully automatically records all your master data within seconds so that all the relevant data on your products is immediately integrated into your logistics system. It is available in three variants for different item sizes weighing between five and 40 kilograms (~11 to 88 lb).

Fully extended, MultiScan is available in different models with a maximum length of up to 600, 800 or 1,200 millimeters (~23, 31 or 47 in). The maximum width is 630 millimeters while you can choose between a maximum height of either 470 or 630 millimeters (~25 in in width and 18 or 25 in in height). For larger items, KNAPP offers accessories such as the ScanTape. 

MultiScan, the master data measuring device, automatically captures the logistically relevant master data.

MultiScan automatically records all the morphological item master data for all your systems in one go:

Item number
Packaging hierarchies
Material information
entry independently configurable, or drop-down fields
Quantities
Item dimensions
(length, width and height)
Item weight between
5g and 40 kg (~0,01 to 88 lb)

Reducing costs thanks to precise master data maintenance

A badly prepared cost optimization plan can easily backfire. To save costs, data is once again the key – the more you have, the better. If you know the dimensions and weight of an item, you can select the ideal pack size to minimize costs for material and shipping.

There is no need to take any risks. Your warehouse personnel can simply test MultiScan. See for yourself if the MultiScan volume measuring device is right for you and meets your master data maintenance requirements.

Our digital measuring devices come with a leasing option. This gives you a scalable solution and the opportunity to regularly install updates on your devices. What’s more, your contracts can be adapted: Should one MultiScan device not be sufficient because your product range has changed, you have more storage space available or you are expanding your site, you can configure additional master data recording devices as needed.

Whether you are already a pro at automated master data recording or you’re a newbie to optical measurement technology: MultiScan has your back. If you opt for our volume measuring device, KNAPP Smart Solutions takes care of the installation on site and trains users on how to handle items in their day-to-day work. But that’s not all: We regularly service your measuring devices to ensure your MultiScan continues to run smoothly.

Use the item and ROI calculator to find out at which point the purchase of the MultiScan measuring device is worthwhile. The calculator is straightforward: Just enter the labor costs for each warehouse worker, your weekly new recordings and the number of items in your database.

Areas of application for volume measuring devices in logistics

Production, retail and food retail – these sectors may seem quite different at first glance, but the daily challenges warehouse operators in these industries face are much more similar than one might think, such as master data recording. When dealing with a growing or ever-changing product range, it’s hard to keep an overview of the warehouse workload and other KPIs. Digital and mobile measuring devices such as MultiScan achieve order from chaos, assigning numbers to the items and saving the corresponding item dimensions, variants, lots and other details. This helps your personnel work more efficiently and, in turn, lowers the costs for storage, packaging and shipping, thereby greatly reducing the carbon footprint of your warehouse.
