Warehouses of all sizes are looking for ways to improve their pallet processing. The process of identifying, scanning, and validating incoming and outgoing pallets is time-consuming and labor-intensive, often leading to bottlenecks and congestion in receiving areas. To address these issues, Vimaan has developed PalletSCAN 100-D, a solution that enables drive-by pallet scanning in warehouse staging areas and dock doors.
With drive-by pallet scanning, forklift drivers and autonomous vehicles unloading pallets from trucks can pass by the PalletSCAN 100-D, triggering automatic scans and validation of the pallet contents. This eliminates the need for manual cycle counting and significantly reduces the time and labor required for pallet processing.
Inventory tracking methods, such as manual counting and barcode scanning, are time-consuming, prone to human error, and disruptive to workflows. Here’s why drive-by pallet scanning is a must-have solution for modern warehouses:
Drive-by pallet scanning with PalletSCAN 100-D consists of high-speed cameras, embedded LED lighting, sensors and Vimaan’s proprietary machine learning and computer vision algorithms. These systems scan pallets moving up to 10mph and can be easily added to warehouse dock doors, allowing for instant data collection as MHE drive by. Alternatively, some warehouses elect to have designated standalone scanning stations which capture pallet data as the MHE proceeds to the aisles. Typical applications PalletSCAN 100-D is used for:
These easy-to-use scanning systems are replacing the need for bulky warehouse barcode reading tunnels. Combining two PalletSCAN 100-D systems allows warehouses to capture both left and right sides of the pallet. This combination of drive-by pallet scanners can be configured on each side of dock doors or in designated warehouse scanning areas. Regardless of where the scanners are placed, drivers do not need to stop for scanning and can proceed directly to their designated storage areas.
Drive-by pallet scanning is revolutionizing warehouse operations by enabling immediate data capture, instant content validation, improved accuracy and automated inventory. PalletSCAN 100-D is engineered to address key pain points in traditional warehouse management, including labor-intensive data capture and documentation, operational disruptions, and inventory inaccuracies. By implementing PalletSCAN 100-D drive-by scanning solutions, warehouses optimize efficiencies, reduce costs, and maintain seamless inventory control with minimal manual intervention.
As warehouses continue to prioritize automation and real-time visibility, drive-by pallet scanning will play an essential role in shaping the future of inventory management. Investing in this technology today ensures that businesses stay competitive and prepared for the evolving demands of modern supply chain operations.
