Pallet patterns in the Cloud
Cape Pack delivers next generation palletization in the Cloud, and is the first to offer an end-to-end solution via a Cloud platform, from data input and calculations to reporting.
Additional new cloud features enable you to:
- Save all information in the cloud for easy viewing and sharing.
- Easily share palletization reports complete with load formatting, edited layer patterns and truck analysis data.
The new interface makes it very easy for users to make critical, up-to-the-minute, changes shareable within anyone, anywhere. As a result, you can accelerate design and approval processes and cut cycle times. Whilst at the same time building more efficient pallet patterns and optimizing cube space utilization.
Efficient pallet pattern building
This program calculates pallet patterns for fixed or known secondary package sizes. You enter the size of the bottle, box, tray, case, bag, etc. that is to be placed directly onto the pallet. It will allow you to calculate pallet patterns on 3 different sets of pallet restrictions at one time in order to compare efficiencies.
Mixed Loading
A separate program will allow you to create Display Pallets with mixed case or tray sizes.
You can use this program for a single mixed load or you can fill a full order of items with the Order Fulfillment option.
KDF for Corrugated manufacturers
Our Knocked-Down-Flat program is perfect for helping estimate full loads of flat cases that are to be shipped to your customer.
