PackAssistant – Optimized 3D-Packaging Design

Perfect packing with PackAssistant

Making the best possible use of a container’s volume saves transportation and storage costs. The challenge is to find the most efficient way to arrange objects within the available volume. Even experienced packing planners spend significant time carefully arranging identical parts with complex geometries – yet they rarely achieve the same packing density that PackAssistant delivers.

PackAssistant automatically calculates the optimal packing arrangement of identical parts in standard containers, using 3D CAD data. It works equally well for complex shapes, as the software recognizes and accounts for each part’s exact geometry.

Benefit

PackAssistant greatly simplifies the packaging of industrial components. Automated calculation of the optimal packing arrangement enables fast, cost-effective, and optimized container and logistics planning.

PackAssistant saves time and money through

  • optimal container utilization,
  • avoiding time-consuming packing tests,
  • allowing early-stage transport, container and storage planning, and
  • providing a key support tool for the creation of quotes and tenders.

Saving potential

Reduction of transport costs

PackAssistant users have improved the packing density of containers by up to 25 percent. This improvement also positively affects other areas in the logistics chain: fewer containers means reduced storage space needed and lower transportation and handling costs.


Save time by improved planning

PackAssistant delivers optimized packing densities, is simple to use, and saves significant time with its fast calculations. This leads to better planning of packaging and logistics processes.
