The Quantronix CubiScan 125 is a small static cubing system that uses a combination of sensing technologies to measure and weigh irregular-shaped parts and components as well as boxed and case-pack items. Small parts and non-cuboidal items are measured with precision using infrared sensing technology, while larger boxes and cases are measured with ultrasonic sensors.

The system automates the collection of dimensional data for slotting, storage-space selection, carton selection, repacking, check-weighing and shipment manifesting in medical, pharmaceutical, apparel, hardware, and most all types of consumer goods distribution. It has an integrated control panel/display and outputs to a user-supplied PC. Capacity for boxes/cases is 24 x 24 x 36 inches with a resolution of 0.1 inches; irregular items are at 18 x 18 x 12 inches with a resolution of 0.05 inches. The 125 also includes an integrated, high-accuracy 50 x 0.005 lbs scale.

Qbit software allows for menu-driven operator control, data storage/transfer and diagnostics. A mobile cart and accessories such as a portable power supply, handheld barcode scanner and label printers are available to create a mobile cubing, weighing and identification work station.
