Backgrounds
ƒ Many companies are shipping & delivering wasted spaces
ƒ They waste so much time to calculate how many products can be loaded
into containers and trucks
ƒ They are unsure how many containers will be needed to ship multiple
orders
ƒ Logistics cost is higher than manufacturing’s in Supply Chain
ƒ More companies are seeking cost saving solutions in Logistics

ƒ Finds the min number of vehicles needed to load
different SKU types with different order quantities.
X 200
Vehicle
#1
ƒ Single Loading
X 240
ƒ Finds the max number of loads of single SKU type in
a single vehicle.
ƒ Set Loading
X 300
X 178
ƒ Finds the max number of loads in a single vehicle to
load different SKU types with different set ratio, for
example air-conditioner and audio sets.
#2
Concept of Mix Loading
ƒ Multi-Set Loading
ƒ Finds the min number of vehicles needed to load
different SKU types with different set ratio and order
quantities.
ƒ 2-Stages Loading
ƒ You can make pallet loads with single or mix cartons
and then load trucks and containers with them. You
can also mix the pallets and cartons together in a
same load .

Load Rules
ƒ SKU Orientations
ƒ Orientations Priority
ƒ Controls the SKU orientations. You can use
directional signs on each orientation, and
control to allow turning on the bottom of
vehicle.
ƒ Even if all orientations are permitted, you
can give a priority to them. Below picture
shows the blue SKU is loaded with primary
orientation in front spaces and others in rear
spaces.
ƒ Max Stacks on each Orientation
ƒ Controls maximum stacks on each
orientation. For example if a SKU should be
located on the bottom of container less than
2 layers with orientation 1 and 2, the max
stacks of both the orientation 1 and 2 should
be 2.
Orientation 1 is
used as the
primary
orientation
Other orientations
are used in
remaining spaces

Load Rules - 2
ƒ Loading Sequence
ƒ Grouping
ƒ You can give loading sequence to handle
multiple stops and priority loading.
ƒ The SKUs with the smaller loading
sequences will be stowed earlier than ones
with larger sequences starting from the front
area to door (rear) side of the container.
ƒ The left figure shows loads where the blue,
green and yellow are loaded sequentially
with priorities.
Sequence is used
ƒ Use the group to load according to drop off
or with same order kept together.
ƒ SKUs of the same group will be loaded
keeping together and different groups will
separate in a container.
ƒ The left figure shows loads where Group 1
and 2 are separated (Group 1 is blue types
and 2 is red).

Load Rules - 3
ƒ Stacking Orders
ƒ Limit SKU types per Vehicle
ƒ You can control the vertical locations on
stacking.
ƒ Stacking order can be used to prevent heavy
boxes from being put on top of light boxes
or put pallets on top of pallets with exactly
same sizes.
Stacking Rule Used
ƒ It controls the max number of SKU types
when mix-load with different types of SKUs.
It allows the user to control the complexity
of loads.
ƒ Below 2 figures show the difference of max
4 and 3 types of SKUs.
No Stacking Rule Used
Max 4 Types
Max 3 Types
Stack Value=3
Stack Value=2
Stack Value=1

Load Rules - 4
ƒ Balance Control
ƒ Use 4 rules to make full load into the
remaining vehicles after initial load.
ƒ Next Vehicles Exchanging: Changes the
vehicles of lower space utilization with next
smaller vehicles
ƒ Order Pulling: Fills the vehicles of lower
space utilization with the packages of next
orders
ƒ Order Rounding-Down: Drop the vehicle of
lower space utilization (Total shipping
amount decreased)
ƒ Order Rounding-Up: Fills the vehicles of
lower space utilization with the packages
existing in the vehicles (Total shipping
amount increased)
ƒ Piece Count of SKU
ƒ Use the piece count for specific SKU. For
example, a new ship case called BOX has 12
cans inside. You will enter 12 as the piece
count when defining BOX as a new SKU.
When you add a quantity of 100 BOX to the
load list, the total piece count will indicate
1200 cans.
ƒ No Turning on the Bottom of Vehicle
ƒ Even when all orientations permitted,
control allowance of the turning orientations
on the bottom of vehicle.

Load Rules - 5
ƒ Partial Load through Locking
ƒ Limit Load Weight and Volume
ƒ You can lock loads or vehicles to prevent
them from changing next load. Through this
rule, you can make a partial loads and fleets
plan.
ƒ Change Vehicle Type on the fly
ƒ Without reloading all vehicles, you can
replace the specific vehicle with another
type with just one-click.
ƒ Controls total loads not exceed the
maximum weight and volume of the vehicle.
It allows the user for example to equally
divide the boxes among the available
containers.
ƒ Axle Weight and Center of Gravity
ƒ Axle weight and exact location of center of
gravity for all loads are calculated
automatically.
ƒ Loose Item
ƒ Breaks up pallet loads and load the SKUs in
the pallet as loose items to fill vacant space
in the vehicle.
Center of Gravity
Axle Weight
