Key Features
See why automated pallet scanning makes sense for your operation
Pallet scanning used to require multiple expensive readers or complex vision systems just to cover a single pallet. Our steerable mirror technology changes that. One device can do what used to take several, providing complete coverage at a lower cost and with less complexity.
Setup takes less than five minutes with our web-based wizard. Unlike other systems, you can customize the scanning pattern to suit your specific needs for better read rates. Once running, Edge Intelligence monitors performance and captures problem images so you know exactly what’s happening.
Modular and flexible by design, each system is built on a lightweight, durable, and adjustable aluminum frame that is optimized for belt height and width. Single-sided pallet scanning systems can be easily upgraded to multi-sided solutions and redeployed for changing needs (such as dock-door scanning), future-proofing your investment.
- Reduce cost and complexity with a 5x FOV expansion from a single device
- Simplify deployment and maintenance using a guided setup
- Maximize readability and capture clear images with dynamic autofocus and distance sensing
- Optimize the pallet scanning process by post-processing full resolution images stored on the device

Applications
Process your inbound pallets more efficiently
Automated inbound pallet scanning speeds up bulk goods receiving by instantly capturing barcode data, even through plastic wrap or if codes are partially torn, reducing manual effort. It enhances cross-docking efficiency by enabling immediate identification and routing, streamlining processes, minimizing errors, and providing real-time inventory visibility for flexible, cost-effective operations, even during peak periods.
Streamline outbound pallet processing
Streamline outbound pallet processing with automated pallet scanning, real-time inventory updates, and full traceability. Improve outbound bulk shipping efficiency for retail distribution and FMCG manufacturing by cutting labor costs, reducing manual scanning errors, and boosting outbound throughput.
