Logiline provides logistics consultancy to companies who typically do not move enough freight to negotiate attractive carrier terms, choosing the best transport method for each customer's needs. It’s simple, because Logiline maintains contracts with all major transport providers.

Logiline arranges pick-up, transport and delivery for about 1,500 shipments from Germany to destinations around the world each day. About two-thirds are handled by Logiline partners. The remainder go to a Logiline terminal for consolidation and packing.

A better way  

Until recently, shipping preparation was largely manual. An operator would weigh a parcel and measure it with a tape measure. They would then jot down notes that were later entered into a computer in a time-consuming process open to error.

Logiline knew there was a better way. The solution was CSN110 ScanTape mobile dimensioner and scanner. Now, operators can quickly scan a barcode, measure the package and merge/transfer data with the click of a button. Logiline even developed their own Android application to transfer ScanTape data to their systems.

Early estimates suggest ScanTape automation saves one hour-plus per branch, per shift. Additionally, automated time stamps and operator IDs support communication if there is a query about declared measurements.
