Case Study: Rice Lake Weighing Systems improves LTL shipping accuracy and efficiency with OnLogic rugged computers

Rice Lake Weighing Systems saves over 4 hours a day with OnLogic

Rice Lake Weighing Systems, a manufacturer of industrial weighing equipment, faced a significant challenge in the logistics industry. Their customers were struggling with the time-consuming and error-prone manual process of dimensioning Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) shipments, which often resulted in costly carrier fees for incorrect measurements. To solve this, Rice Lake developed the iDimension Flex Series automated dimensioning system and turned to vendor OnLogic for the required computing hardware.

OnLogic provided its Karbon 802 rugged computer to serve as the powerful and reliable processing core for Rice Lake's solution. The system accurately captures freight dimensions in less than two seconds, saving approximately 20 seconds of manual data entry per item. For a facility shipping 800 items daily, this translates to over four hours of saved labor per day. The rugged OnLogic hardware ensures reliable performance in harsh warehouse environments, eliminating costly reclassification fees and chargebacks for shippers.
