Feature

Evaluate Item

Instantly validate the transport efficiency of your packaging by evaluating the achieved bin utilization. Efficiently packs a single item type into a single bin by constructing packing layers. The response also contains all the information that would be needed to make use of packing visualization.

Answers Questions Such As

  • We are designing a new product; how transport-efficient is our current packaging design?
  • How should we tweak the design of our product to make it more transport-efficient?
  • Which pallet/container/box size should be used for this particular item?
  • Where in the bin should we place our items?

Noteable Features

  • Specializes in creating packing layers.
  • Handle the allowed overhang by specifying packingMargins.
  • Provides insight into the actual pallet size via item furthestPoints.
