CLEVELAND - eTradeWire -- Minimizing Transport Damage in E-Commerce

The rapid growth of e-commerce has brought an increase in transport damage risks. With global online orders exceeding $4.5 trillion and rising 20% annually, minimizing costly returns and liability disputes while ensuring safe delivery is a critical challenge for mail-order companies.

Proactive Damage Prevention: A Key Strategy

While preventing damage is paramount, it's equally crucial to pinpoint the cause when it occurs. This is where data-driven solutions come into play. By understanding the specific conditions that lead to damage to shipments during transport, businesses can:

• Optimize Packaging: Develop robust and cost-effective packaging solutions through rigorous testing.
• Identify Problematic Carriers: Pinpoint logistics providers that consistently expose goods to excessive shock and vibration.
• Reduce Returns and Liability Claims: Minimize customer dissatisfaction and avoid costly disputes.

The MSR175 is a compact and powerful tool for monitoring and analyzing transport conditions. These data loggers can be used in test packages to record key parameters, including: discreetly

• Shock and Vibration: Two, 3-axis acceleration sensors (±15 g and ±200 g) sample at up to 6,400 Hz to capture shock, vibration, and impacts with high precision, with memory to store up to 1000 events, identifying impacts and jolts that can damage goods.
• Temperature: Monitors temperature from -20° to +65 °C which can affect sensitive products.
• Humidity: Measures humidity levels, which are crucial for protecting goods susceptible to moisture damage.
• Pressure: Records changes in atmospheric pressure, which can impact certain types of cargo.

How it Works:

Set up the MSR175 with desired parameters using the MSR dashboard software and include it in the test package for shipments. The logger will continuously record data during the journey. After shipment, easily download the data via USB for analysis using the user-friendly MSR Report Generator and ShockViewer software.
