FedEx, UPS, and even the USPS in some cases use dimensional weight (dim weight) instead of actual weight in calculating shipping charges.
Texwrap combined its new 2410 intermittent side seal wrapper with an ID Technology scanner/label applicator. The scanning system reads a bar code from the pick ticket on products or groups of products as they travel on a conveyor entering the wrapper and retrieves the shipping information from a database. After the bags are labeled and sealed, they are ready to be dimensioned and the billable weight calculated.
