Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) has completed a successful proof of concept on CIND’s Dimensioner in Motion System for palletised goods.
It carried out a 15-week trial of the vision-based measurement system at its Copenhagen terminal and now intends to rollout the system at stations in its Europe, Middle East, Africa & Asia (EMEAA) region. The next five WFS airport stations to implement the system will be Amsterdam Schiphol, Arlanda Stockholm, Barcelona, Liège, and Paris Chales de Gaulle.
CIND’s Dimensioner uses stereo vision cameras, AI and algorithms to capture dimensions, and visual data automatically. It can measure and analyse standard and non-standard pallets in motion, whether transported by forklift, conveyor, or AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle). The system delivers precise measurements that comply with international standards with an accuracy of +-2cm and ensures the correct freight data is captured for accurate invoicing and aircraft space utilisation.
Volume calculations take under 2 seconds and WFS expects to process up to 500 pallets per hour using the solution.
In 2024, WFS became the first air cargo handler to implement CIND’s ContourCheck 3D modelling software for enhanced data and transparency.
