|
Package Orientation |
|
AutoLoad Pro creates 3D
load plans using complex loading rules and box
orientation rules. |
 |
Fixed: only
one primary orientation allowed. (Ex. Pallets
Stacking) |
 |
Horizontal turn:
two orientations allowed. (Ex. Liquor bottle
Stacking) |
 |
All: six orientations
allowed. (It is allowed
to stack vertically) |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Loading Direction |
|
Define the direction of
loading goods into a container or onto a pallet. |
 |
Front-to-Back
is used for truck or container loading. |
 |
Bottom-to-Top
is used for palletizing. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Loading Sequence |
|
Multiple Stops - Loading
Sequence and Priority Setting |
 |
Define loading
sequence in order which delivery is to be made
for multiple stops and priority loading. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Stacking Pattern of
pallet |
|
AutoLoad Pro can produce
an interlocked load pattern, which is frequently
used in palletizing. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Multiple Containers
Optimization |
|
Define in which order
containers are to be used for optimization in
multiple containers. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Roll Loading |
|
Capable of handling roll
and mixed loading. |
 |
Roll loading |
 |
Mixed loading:
roll and rectangular loading |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Complex Loading ( Stacking
Matrix ) |
|
Set stack codes for packages
and define stacking rules among different stack
codes. These rules will be applied while loading
or stacking. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Stacking Location and
Strength Restrictions |
|
Stacking order can be
used to prevent heavy boxes from being put on
top of light boxes. Settings for top only or
bottom only boxes are also possible. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Overhang Restrictions |
|
AutoLoad Pro has two options
of loading boxes on top of another. One option
is with overhang and the other is without overhang. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Handling Nested Boxes |
|
AutoLoad Pro allows the
user to define a nest height increase for boxes.
It will be used to calculate a stack of boxes
when nested. With this feature, stack / nest
box loading ( loading
of boxes which shrink when stacked
) is now possible. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Restriction on Same
Dimension Package Stacking |
|
Stack the same dimension
packages on each other. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Grouping |
|
The packages come from
the same order or the same customer could be
grouped and would be stacked or loaded in the
same containers while loading optimization. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Load packages of same
type into the same container |
|
Same package could be
loaded consecutively, that is, after loading
the first one, all will be loaded in the same
container if they fit. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Automatic Re-Loading |
 |
In AutoLoad
Pro, it is possible for the user to first optimize
a part of the loading plan, and then fix that
part to make it permanent, make additional inputs
and re-optimize the loading plan without changing
the fixed parts. |
 |
Next day loading
plan could be advanced if there is still space
could be loaded so that it could improve the
utilization of containers. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Volume Utilization |
|
Define maximum load factor
of multi-set containers. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Center of Gravity |
|
AutoLoad Pro provides
various settings on how to automatically position
the center of gravity. For example, the user
can set the center of gravity near the center
of the container. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Supported Weight |
|
Maximum supported weight
can be set for each box. The figure here shows
a sample result with Maximum Supported Weight
set to 100Kg. Numbers printed on the boxes are
the weights of each box. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Restrictions on Loading
Space |
 |
Container entry
or corner casting or Air cargo ULD – define
three-dimensional rectangular spaces in the
container that cannot be used for loading. |
 |
Consider the
space that couldn’t be stacked in the warehouse
and simulate the loading operation. |
| |
 |
| |
|
|
Packages of the
same group stacked together
 |
|
You can have the packages of the same group
stacked together. It is very useful and
convenient for unloading the packages when
there are several groups of packages loaded
in the containers. |
| |
 |
 |
| |
Packages
of the same group stacked together
|
None |
| |
|
|
2-Stage
Container/Truck Loading
 |
|
Complete 2 stages loading plan at the same
time by one click: |
 |
Packages->Pallets->Containers/Trucks |
 |
Packages ->Carton-> Containers/Trucks |
 |
Packages->Racks-> Containers/Trucks |
| |
|
|
|
Useful settings: |
 |
Uniload or Mixload setting for pallets |
 |
Top Only setting for pallets. |
 |
Allow to palletize or not for the rest of
packages after palletized. You can set a
specific percentage to determine whether to
palletize or not for the rest of packages.
For example, if volume of the rest of
packages dose not reach 50% of the capacity
of pallet, they can be not palletized and
loaded along with full pallets in the
container. |
| |
 |
 |
|
Uniload and allow to
stack pallets on the top of other pallets
|
Mixload for pallets |
| |
|
|
| |
 |
 |
| |
Top Only for
pallets |
Allow not to
be palletized for the rest of packages |
| |
|
