If you ship 500+ parcels a day, manual measurement is quietly costing you money. AutoScan is a dimensioning, weighing, and scanning (DWS) system that captures every parcel's length, width, height, and weight in about 2 seconds — and feeds the result straight into your WMS, ERP, or shipping platform.
Built by Gerkon, a Ukrainian metrology manufacturer with 30 years of measurement-equipment experience, AutoScan is designed for fulfillment operations that need carrier-accurate volumetric weight on every shipment, without slowing down the packing line.
Why this matters for billing
DPD, GLS, DHL, FedEx, UPS, Hermes/Evri, Royal Mail, La Poste, PostNord, Bpost, Chronopost — every major carrier bills the greater of actual or dimensional weight (DIM weight). The formula is simple: L × W × H ÷ divisor (5000 for air, 4000 for ground, 6000 for Royal Mail). The leak is invisible: a 1 cm rounding error on every parcel adds up to €15 000–€80 000 a year in carrier overpayments at 1 000 parcels/day. A proper parcel dimensioner closes that leak on day one.
Where AutoScan fits
- Fulfillment & 3PL — Huboo, Byrd, Bigblue, Salesupply-style operations, in-house e-commerce ops. Cubing for billable-weight reconciliation with both carriers and clients.
- Marketplace sellers — Amazon FBA, eBay, Etsy, Allegro, bol.com, Otto, Cdiscount. Stops chargebacks for incorrect dimensions and prevents listing penalties.
- Cross-border & postal hubs — accurate parcel manifests for customs declarations (CN22/CN23), EORI compliance, IOSS/OSS reporting.
- WMS-driven warehouses — direct integration with SAP EWM, Oracle WMS, Microsoft Dynamics 365 SCM, NetSuite, Manhattan Active, MyWMS via REST API or RS-485.
- Shipping platforms — out-of-the-box compatibility with ShipStation, EasyPost, Sendcloud, Shippo, ShipBob, Shippie, Logiwa.
- Manufacturers — finished-goods measurement on the packaging line with auto-export to ERP for shipping documentation.
How it actually works
The operator places a parcel on the stainless steel weighing platform. Three independent laser rangefinders capture X, Y, and Z dimensions while certified load cells read the weight — all simultaneously. Results appear on a 5-inch color touchscreen with full operating UI: dimensions, actual weight, calculated volumetric weight per carrier, barcode if scanned. The whole cycle is roughly 2 seconds.
Two operating modes ship as standard:
- Manual mode — operator places the parcel and presses one button. Best for mixed-throughput stations.
- Automatic mode — measurement triggers as soon as a new parcel is placed on the platform. Best for high-volume packing lines.
Real-world accuracy
Measurement precision depends on the parcel surface — and we publish honest numbers:
- Matte surfaces (cardboard, kraft paper): ±1 mm
- Glossy surfaces (lacquered cartons, taped seams): ±2 mm
- Weight: ±2–5 g resolution depending on capacity range
- Min measurable side: 30 mm — handles small e-commerce SKUs (cosmetics, jewelry, pharma)
Three models for different throughput
- AutoScan AS-50 — parcels up to 500 × 500 × 500 mm, 20 kg. Apparel, cosmetics, electronics, small parcels.
- AutoScan AS-80 — parcels up to 800 × 800 × 800 mm, 50 kg. Universal model — most-ordered SKU for 3PL and fulfillment.
- AutoScan AS-120 — oversized: above 800 mm. Freight forwarders, pallet-edge shipments, B2B distribution.
If your parcels exceed 800 mm or you need a non-standard capacity, we manufacture custom sizes to specification. Typical lead time is 4–6 weeks.
Connectivity that works with what you have
Five interfaces are wired in by default: Bluetooth, USB, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, RS-485. A measurement event can leave AutoScan as JSON over HTTP to your endpoint, or be picked up directly from the local SQLite database (last 1 000 records buffered if your network drops). For legacy ERPs we expose a serial COM port — read it like a barcode scanner.
Optional add-ons:
- Barcode/QR scanner (compatible models on request)
- Built-in 9 Ah Li-Ion battery — up to 12 hours of fully autonomous operation, auto-charges from 220V mains. Critical if your facility has unstable power.
- GSM modem — for sites without Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet
Built to last
Stainless steel platform and frame, industrial-grade components manufactured in-house at Gerkon's metrology workshop in Ukraine. The control board and laser modules are designed and assembled by us — not OEM-rebadged. Spare parts are stocked and ship within 48 hours from Ukraine to the EU and UK.
Compliance and warranty
- EU-aligned design: EMC, LVD, RoHS compliant. CE marking on all units shipped to the EU/UK.
- Weighing platform calibration traceable to OIML R76 (class III equivalent).
- 12-month warranty standard, extended 24- or 36-month available. Free firmware updates for the lifetime of the device.
- Remote diagnostics over a secure connection — most issues resolved without a service visit.

SHIPPING INFORMATION FOR UKRAINE
Our company is committed to fast shipping and delivery throughout Ukraine. We work with carriers that offer the best balance of price and quality, including:
NOVA POSHTA
1-3 days. Delivery speed depends on your location. After placing your order and payment, we ship the same day or the next.
SAT
Delivery time 3-5 days. Speed depends on the distance between sender and recipient. This is the most economical option compared to Nova Poshta.
DELIVERY
Shipping takes 4-7 days. This is the slowest method, but its advantage is the low cost.
FREIGHT POOLING
Shipping is done via shared transport through a dispatcher. Finding a vehicle takes 1-2 days; speed depends on the destination (major cities are faster, remote villages slower). This method is cheaper than the carriers listed above.
We work throughout Ukraine, and on request can arrange delivery via another courier service not on our list.
After placing your order in our online store, please provide the following information for delivery to your region:
- Recipient's full name
- City or town
- Number of the nearest warehouse (if shipping via courier services)
- Mobile phone number
Once the goods are shipped, we will provide you with the waybill number. When picking up your order, please bring your passport and the waybill number.
NOTES:
- The seller is not responsible for the operation of postal / courier services.
- Shipments are insured for full value; in case of damage the carrier is obligated to compensate you in full.
- Shipping costs are paid by the buyer (or by mutual agreement).
- If the requested product cannot be supplied, an equivalent replacement will be offered upon your approval.
If you couldn't find an answer to your question in this section, please contact us for more detailed information.
PAYMENT METHODS
After placing an order for a selected product in our store, we verify stock availability and confirm with you. Payment can then be made using one of the following methods:
- Bank transfer to the company account (VAT included).
- Cash on delivery (payment upon receipt).
Before paying via bank transfer, please contact us to confirm product availability.
Cash on delivery is processed at the carrier's warehouse. The service fee is 2% of the total + 15 UAH for payment processing. For an order of 1000 UAH you will pay 35 UAH for this service plus the shipping cost.
The second method is more reliable as you can inspect the goods on the spot, but it is also more expensive, so before paying you may want to consider which method suits you best.
If payment is received by 12:00, we ship the same day; if payment arrives later, shipping is processed the next day.
For any questions about payment, please contact us — if you haven't found an answer to your question, we will provide more detailed information.
