The Dimensionalizer is a proprietary system of cameras and software that scans and measures freight. TFM’s patented software uses APIs to seamlessly communicate this information to our Transportation Management System and to the customer’s ERP. After the shipper’s data has been collected and any frequently-used shipment sizes are identified, TFM will use this profile to get quicker price quoting and to renegotiate agreements and discounts on the shipper’s behalf. The Dimensionalizer photographs the freight from 5 angles and attaches those images in the system and to the bill of lading, which is invaluable support in the event of any damage claims. This mobile application interfaces with the Dimensionalizer hardware and software and allows a user to control the system and trigger the Dimensionalizer as well as create shipments and bills of lading in the TFM Transportation Management System.
