Feature Introduction
Basic Placement Constrain

● Every cargo has its own attributes
● Load orientations, max stack layers and max overhang ratio
● Every cargo's max stack layers are different in different load orientations. "Support Others" can be set or not set for different load orientations.
Same Items Together

● In practice, same cargoes are usually packed together, and we usually allow partial mixing between different items, which is convenient for operation and improves the volume use rate.
● Setting 1: check "Place the same cargoes next to each other"
● Setting 2: set "Cross Depth" to restrict the allowed mixing size when crossing
Loading Sequence

● Cargoes' loading sequence should be specified when they are from different warehouse or be sent to different destinations
● Setting 1: set the "Loading Sequence" of the cargoes
● Setting 2: Set the "Cross Depth" to restrict the allowed mixing size when crossing.
Stacking Order

● Due to the different bearing capacities of different cargoes, the cargo have the "Stacking Order" attribute. Cargo 2 has higher stacking order so cargo 2 is under cargo 1.
● For very large or very weighty cargoes, set "Bottom Only".
● For cargoes which are afraid of pressure, unset "Support Others"
Set Loading

● The set cargoes are split into multiple boxes but must be loaded in complete suite, or the different products need to be loaded in proportion.
● For example, a computer is composed of a screen and a mainframe, and a suite of furniture is composed of a table and 4 chairs. Load plans must keep the ratio 1:1 and 1:4 respectively.
● In the result, a container can load 15 computers and 33 suites of furnitures
Cargo Group

● Sometimes only cargoes from the same order or with the same destination can be mixed.
● Unset the rule "Allow different groups of cargoes to be mixed in one container"
● In the example, cargoes in order 1 and order 2 are not mixed.
Two-step Packing
● All cargoes are packed in pallets, then pallets are packed in containers

● Some cargoes are packed in pallets, then pallets and other cargoes are packed simultaneously.
