Product Description:

Quick Pallet Maker is a Pallet Loading application that calculates the optimal box dimensions in order to fit the most packages into a shipping pallet. The user introduces the dimensions for his/her Primary Package along with other physical information and the program displays the available solutions graphically. Features a "solver" that iterates to achieve best results. Works with Metric and English units.

What's new in this version:

  • [All] NF: Functional Quick Pallet Maker web-based server. Final spec to be defined.
  • [All] NF: Pallet lists with multiple boxes can now be exported to the MS Excel 2003 XML spreadsheet format which is readable by MS Excel version 2003 and above, besides other apps like OpenOffice Calc.
  • [All] AF: Clicking "Optimize" on a Type 10 calculated pallet delivers equivalent optimizations but with alternative patterns. If no pattern is available with the same amount of cartons per pallet, then nothing will appear.

Quick Pallet Maker ReviewThis will save some time - Version: 3.0.4, 8/11/2003 04:44PM PST

Nice, very nice, and again, nice.
You can set you own palette sizes, max heights and weights; mix carton orientation, facings and then mix that with other kinds of cartons; it makes all the conceivable permutations of palette organisation and then gives volumetric efficiency measurements and total size, weight etc etc

In terms of use it's fairly straightforward; I just opened it and within a couple of minutes had built some palettes just by messing around. I haven't even looked at the supplied documentation. It looks like you can export the data, and images of the palette; it would be good if you could import data from an excel sheet or something; the Load Input Data selection is greyed out at the moment, but that might be more to do with me not figuring it out.

A Very solid product, $379 US is not a disgusting price for something that looks like it will save us a bunch of time.
