S140 Master Data Capture: Dimensions, Weight and Photo
Master data capture for warehousing and automation
Request a demoYour automation is only as good as your item data
AutoStore, shuttle system or conveyor technology: every warehouse automation relies on the length, width, height and weight of your items. If those values are missing or wrong, your WMS picks the wrong bins, slots and freight classes. The result is blocked processes, rework and freight costs nobody planned for. With the S140 you capture dimensions, weight, color photo and barcode of every item in a single step.
Master data your WMS can trust
The S140 measures with less than 5 mm mean deviation, and the integrated scale resolves to 1 g. You plan bins, slots and freight classes with data instead of estimates.
Place, scan, done
At the S140 you place the item on the scale, no alignment needed. 3D cameras capture the dimensions, the color photo documents the condition, and the barcode links everything to the right item. The screen confirms every measurement immediately. That is why a short briefing is enough, even with changing staff.
Straight into your WMS or ERP, stationary or mobile
Every measurement reaches your WMS, ERP or TMS via REST API, file export or QR code. Triggering happens automatically, by barcode or through the API. In MetriXOne, our cloud dashboard, you also see every measurement with its photos. With a battery that you provide and WLAN or LTE you move the station to where the goods are. That way you capture master data in receiving just as easily as in the middle of your stock.
Measure first, then automate
Before an automated warehouse goes live, the master data inventory comes first. With the S140 you work through your stock systematically, item by item. One measurement takes around 200 milliseconds, and in the process you capture up to 750 items per hour including scan. That keeps the project plannable even for large assortments. How to organize capture at a fixed station or on the move through your stock is explained on the page Automating master data capture. How many working days your assortment takes at the S140 and at other stations is shown in the simulation Master data capture: what do frame and corner stop cost?.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is the S140 and where do I use it?
The S140 is our system for master data capture. It measures length, width, height and weight, takes a color photo and reads the barcode. That fills your WMS or ERP with item data your automation can rely on.
How accurate is the S140?
The mean deviation is below 5 mm. The integrated scale weighs up to 50 kg with a resolution of 1 g. That makes the data suitable for bin planning, freight calculation and warehouse automation.
What is the throughput of the S140?
One measurement takes around 200 milliseconds. In the process you capture up to 750 items per hour including barcode scan, depending on handling.
Which objects can the S140 measure?
Boxes and irregularly shaped items up to 120 × 85 × 70 cm. Because of the camera's pyramid-shaped measuring cone, the maximum footprint depends on the object height. Flat objects can therefore be larger than tall ones. Completely non-reflective and highly reflective objects are excluded.
Can I use the S140 in mobile applications?
Yes. With a battery and WLAN or LTE the station works without fixed connections. That lets you capture master data right at the rack instead of only in receiving. You provide the battery yourself; we do not supply batteries.
How does the data get into my ERP or WMS?
Via REST API in real time, as a file (CSV, XLSX, PDF), via QR code or through the reporting. Our onboarding team supports you with the integration.
Does the S140 need on-site maintenance?
Rarely. The system measures statically and has no moving parts, and maintenance and updates run via remote access. At under 20 dB it is also practically silent.
