Most products are shipped in boxes and then in standard pallets. Most of the time, these standard pallets are shipped within standard containers or in trucks. Frequently, there is some extra volume and/or weight in the containers or in the trucks that is billed anyway by the carrier but that is not used by the client. The use of this extra space through software tools should be an important factor for all manufacturers. Based on this need, at SCA Mecanica we have created Quick Pallet Maker, an easy to learn pallet loading/package design program that allows the user to calculate the optimal secondary package dimensions and pallet arrangements, thus reducing shipping costs. What's New: Version 3.2: [All] NF: Container Fill allows you to calculate how many pallets can be fit into a container. This feature is selected from the Tools menu once a pallet has been calculated. [All] NF: KDF Drawing in Report window can be selected in a new tab. This drawing will be useful for the carton manufacturer. [All] AF: Text report is now HTML report. Edit the HTML text directly in QPM or edit the template in a text editor to create custom reports. Preview in web browser. Very cool. [All] AF: Toggle Pallet View menu command updates the pallet view in the Results window and zooms in the drawing in the report window. [All] KI: HTML report currently replaces Portrait printout. [All] AF: Now it's possible to print from the Results Window. [All] BF: Pallet display at left of pallet drawing in the Results Window would display incorrectly the Area Efficiency text for the Box Weight text. [All] AF: Compiled in new version of the IDE. [All] BF: Stretch-wrap packing with a case count equal to 1 using rectangular packages was not possible. [All] AF: Exporting a movie will now open it automatically instead of expecting you to find it and open it. [All] BF: Pallet would be drawn in bird-eye's view no matter if it existed or not. [All] BF: Create Shipment feature was not possible using Standard Ca |  |
