Feature
Cylinder Pack
This calculation is specialized in packing cylindrical items. Calculate the required amount of bins for transport, taking into account a mixture of available bins. It is able to take into account mandatory consolidation for subsets of items and stacking requirements. The result of this endpoint contains all the information that would be required to make use of packing visualization.
Answers Questions Such As
- We have many different pallet sizes available; which combination of pallets should we use?
- How many pallets of each type do we need to ship today/tomorrow/next week?
- Can we be make our transportation more efficient by using different pallet sizes?
- How much space will be left if we place our items on our available pallets right now?
- Where in the bin should we place our items?
Noteable Features
- Indicate which packing metric should be minimized by specifying a minimizationStrategy.
- Keep control of packing consolidation by providing a consolidationKey.
- Accepts a combination of cylindrical and cubic bins in which items will be packed.
- Provide additional item stacking restrictions by including a stackingStyle.
