Pallet load planning
Pallets are both cargo and a loading space. In EveryLoading you can plan cartons onto a pallet, or plan finished pallets into a truck or container, with the same tools.
Common problems, and how EveryLoading helps
Cartons are stacked on a pallet by feel, and the pallet ends up too high or too heavy.
Choose a pallet as the loading space. Its usable height and maximum weight are set, and the optimizer stays within them.
Pallets that should not be double-stacked end up on top of each other in the trailer.
Mark rows as not stackable, limit how many may be stacked, or set the maximum weight on top.
Nobody knows how many pallets really fit in a trailer or container with mixed sizes.
Add Euro, industrial or US pallets from the Pallet / box menu, set the quantity and optimize. The stats show what fits and what does not.
Pallets you can plan
| Preset | Inside L × W × H | Max payload |
|---|---|---|
| Pallet 80x120 | 80 × 120 × 170 cm | 1,500 kg |
| Pallet 120x100 | 120 × 100 × 170 cm | 1,250 kg |
| Pallet 80x60 | 80 × 60 × 170 cm | 500 kg |
| Enlarged Euro pallet | 120 × 120 × 170 cm | 500 kg |
Pallet presets use a usable load height of 170 cm; change it to match your racking or customer rules.
