At Cargo Spectre, we’re proud to serve many clients in the global air freight industry who enjoy the benefits of our dimensioners, including accurate load plans leading to on-time departures. Our air freight dimensioning systems are not strictly necessary to quote shipping prices, it’s true—some companies still do this by hand. There are tangible benefits to using dimensioners to quote air shipping freight, however. By accurately mapping each pallet’s bulge or protrusion in three dimensions, large or small, Cargo Spectre helps air carriers maximize their revenues.
The Role of Dimensioners in Air Freight
Picture this: a world where accuracy is king, and guesswork is the court jester—laughed out of the realm. In air freight, where every inch counts and space is premium, dimensioners are not just a neat addition to the logistics toolkit; they are the reigning monarchs. These innovative devices swiftly and accurately capture the dimensions of packages, unlocking a treasure trove of benefits:
- Optimized Space Utilization: Dimensioners instantly provide the exact size of a package, ensuring cargo is efficiently stacked in an aircraft’s hold. It’s akin to playing a game of Tetris where every piece perfectly slots into place—except with dimensioners, you’re always winning.
- Precise Weight and Balance Control: Understanding the weight distribution is crucial in aviation. Dimensioners work seamlessly to ensure that cargo is balanced, keeping shipments stable and flights safe.
- Faster Turnaround Times: Speed is the lifeblood of air freight. Dimensioners zip through the measuring process with such rapidity that one can’t help but marvel. Quicker quotes mean faster freight—it’s as simple as that.
Why Cargo Spectre Dimensioners Are Ideal for Air Freight
In the dynamic arena of air cargo within the US, there exists a dual framework for mastering the art of dimensional weight calculations: one for international skies, and the other for the domestic landscape. At the heart of these calculations lies the “dim factor”—a numerical cornerstone that unlocks the potential of every inch of space your cargo occupies.
Navigating through the domestic routes, your dimensional weight equation unfolds as the product of length, width, and height deftly divided by 194. For international voyages that stretch across borders and oceans, the divisor is recalibrated to 166 to reflect the expanded orbits of operation and cost.
Consider this: an international freight payload, a standard pallet stretching 48 inches in length, 40 inches in width, and soaring 60 inches in height, tipping the scales at 300 pounds. With Cargo Spectre, this parcel transforms into a calculated dimensional weight of 694 pounds.
For air freight shippers, our technology is not just a step but a giant leap toward operational efficiency. Here’s what each of our clients receives from us:
