Palletize & Load
Overview
• What does the Palletization Plugin do?• How do distributors benefit from using
Pallet/Trailer optimization systems?• System setup requirements• New features• Software demonstration
What does it do?
• Builds pallets• Pallet solutions are determined based on
product dimensions, the “volume” of the pallet being loaded, and product grouping and sequencing rules defined by an administrator
• Loads trailers• Trailers are loaded based on the “outside”
dimensions of the pallets being loaded, bay dimensions & user defined preferences
Pallet Solution
Trailer Solution
How do I benefit?
• Pallet consistency & accuracy• Picking and loading efficiency• Properly utilized & balanced trailers• Integrated system• Provides data and pallet labels required
for ASN’s• *First step towards deploying eostar’s enhanced
picking solutions (Pick Kiosk, Electronic Pick Ticket, and Vocollect Voice Pick)
*Attend the Picking Solutions presentation on Thursday at 10:30 to learn more.
What do I need?
• Product Attributes• Dimensions• Weight• Stock pallet case quantity• Pick Sequences• Layer Pick Sequences
What do I need?
• Product Pick GroupsPick Groups affect the way in which pallets are built and loaded in pick-by-load scenarios.• Define groups and products within each
group• Configure Bay placement preferences• Sequence each Pick Group
What do I need?
• Pallet Sizes• Inside and Outside dimensions
“Inside”dimensions determine how
pallets are built
“Outside”dimensions are used for trailer
load planning
What do I need?
• Pallet Sizes• Length, width, and Height
73” Inside Height
70” Inside Height
What do I need?
• Trailer Configurations• Trailer type
• Side-load• Rear-load• Hybrid
• Trailer Metrics• Dimensions• Weight and Volume capacity
• Bay configuration• Bay dimensions• Content preference (bulk vs non-
bulk pallets)• Wheel and shelf considerations
New Features?
• Unit palletizing (i.e. wine bottles)• Pick Group overrides (bulk/non-bulk)
Demo
In Progress
• Working on performance improvements• Resolution to “split pallet” issue• Hand stacking• Pick Group Pools
