packVol - Optimization Software for Load Planning

packVol is an Optimization Software for Load Planning, designed to plan the best space utilization inside containers and trucks, to help you reduce your transportation costs. It is an innovative software for MS Windows™, which has some unique features not found in other container loading software products. Thanks to its advanced optimizer, truly tridimensional, the program allows you to manage efficiently complex load planning problems.

For example, the program can define the vertical ordering of the units according to the load bearing strength (normal stress) of each item. With this feature the User can obtain realistic solutions, without the need to enter a lot of empirical rules on how items should be stacked.
As a second example, the program can deal with the “Load by Ratio” (Set) load when only a subset of items are grouped, even in a multiple containers load plan.

To learn more about constraints and rules handled by our load planning software, please visit the section Loading Rules.

You can also modify or create the entire load plan manually, with the ease of a paint program. The application indeed offers you a special visual environment, which combines the standard editing functionalities (select, copy, paste, cut, undo, redo, zoom, pane, etc.) of a common 3D graphics program with a rigorous enforcement of the loading rules.
