What is a move pallet dimensioner?

A move pallet dimensioner measures pallets while they move through a capture point, usually in a forklift lane, instead of requiring every pallet to stop at a static station.

Can it remove the forklift from the measurement?

Yes. Wilkins Move Pallet Dimensioner separates the palletized freight from the forklift and excludes the forklift from the calculated pallet volume.

What speed should the forklift use?

The lane is scoped for forklift pass-through below 5 mph so the system can keep 0.5 in precision while moving.

How is this different from regular pallet dimensioning?

Wilkins Pallet Dimensioner is a static pallet station. Wilkins Move Pallet Dimensioner is the in-motion variant for forklift pass-through and maximum throughput.

In-motion pallet dimensioning for forklift lanes.

Wilkins Move Pallet Dimensioner helps busy docks capture pallet measurements without stopping every load. Forklifts pass through below 5 mph, the forklift is removed from volume, and results are available instantly.

Use this when throughput matters more than a static stop.

The strongest fit is a receiving or cross-dock lane where pallets keep moving, operators already use forklifts, and billing, claims or client records still need defensible dimensions.

How a move pallet dimensioner qualifies a dock

Map the lane

Confirm forklift path, pallet mix, speed control, capture point, weight source and downstream system owners.

Capture moving pallets

Measure the pallet as it moves through the capture area below 5 mph while the system excludes forklift volume.

Push the record

Send dimensions, weight, photos and audit context to WMS, TMS, billing, claims or API workflows.
