Quadient—a communication automation, parcel locker solutions, and mail-related solutions provider—announced this week that it has debuted the newest member of its iX-Series. The iX-9 Series high-volume mailing system is available as both a standalone model and pre-integrated with the organization’s S.M.A.R.T., cloud-based mail center software.

The iX-Series mailing and shipping solutions have sold more than 15,000 units in the U.S. since their introduction in 2020. The iX-9 joins the iX-3, iX-5 and iX-7 models to meet the shipping, mailing, accounting, and reporting software needs of organizations of any size. The iX-9 model was built to handle large volumes and can automatically seal, weigh, measure, meter, and stack large runs of mail within minutes. The unit also meets USPS Intelligent Mail Indicia (IMI) and Dimensional Weighing (DIM) requirements.
