In some cases out of high labor costs or the need to improve container and trailer loading efficiency, before being loaded into container, cartons should be first loaded onto pallets. Under such circumstances users need to calculate both how to load cargo onto pallets and then how to load palletized cargoes into containers or trailers.

It’s both hard and complicated for human minds to calculate an optimal loading solution. Is that possible to easily integrate these two stages together in one load plan?

The answer is a definite yes!

How to realize this in LoadMaster cargo loading optimization software? Let’s check it out with an exact example.

Cargo data:

Cargo data chart.

Loading requirements:

1. The cargo cannot be placed with the length vertical to the ground.
2. Plan how to pack cargo on pallets, what sizes of pallet and container are the most efficient to use, and how many pallets and containers are needed for the container and trailer loading solution.
3. The height limit of the cargo that can be stacked on pallets is 1.1 meters (including the height of the pallet itself).

According to the current cargo loading requirements, the task type [2-Steps Loading] should be selected.

This is two-steps loading task type.

Fill in the basic information including the loading task name.

Step 1: Click [Cargo] on the left to enter the cargo interface. For there are lots of cargo types, you should add them in batches through [Add Cargo>Import From Excel]. Firstly, click [Add Cargo>Get Excel Template] to download the Excel template and save it to a certain location in your computer.

This is to add cargo through excel template.

Secondly, fill in the template with the cargo information.

①Copy the name, quantity, length, width, height, and weight (gross weight of a single box) of the goods into the template, which are required items. Pay attention to the matching of the units. “Weight” refers to the gross weight of a single carton or box of goods.

②Then define the placement orientations of the cargo. For it is required that cargoes cannot be placed with the length vertical to the ground, that is “lay” and “lay & rotate” are not allowed, you should fill in “0” under the “allowed” Column of “lay” and “lay & rotate” orientations. “0” means not allowed such load orientation, leave it blank or “1” means allowed.

③Define the properties for loading. For the cargoes are required to be palletized first and then loaded into the container, the “Intermediate Packing Method” of the goods is set to “1”. “0” or blank means that the goods are directly loaded into the container; “1” means that the software would choose the most efficient pallet type for the cargoes out of frequently used pallet types. “2” means that the goods are loaded with the specified intermediate packaging.

For there are no other requirements, you do not need to set other parameters, leaving them as the default value. Save and close the template when finishing.

Thirdly, return to the [Cargo] interface, click [Add Cargo>Import From Excel], choose the template you have just finished, and open it. Then the cargo information will be imported to the software very quickly.

Step 2: Click [Container] on the left to enter the [Container] interface. For the user does not know the most efficient type and quantity of container that should be used, it is necessary to add all the frequently used container types so that the system can select the most appropriate ones.

Step 3: Click [Intermediate Container] on the left to add a pallet. For the user does not know the most efficient type and quantity of pallet that should be used, it is necessary to add all the frequently used pallet types so that the system can automatically and intelligently select the most appropriate one. If there is no commonly used pallet in the database, you can click the [flat pallet] under [Add Container], and then edit the name, length, width, height and other information.

For this case, you can click [Import from Database], and then check the frequently used European and Asian standard pallets in the pop-up box and click [Add]. Set the [maximum load height] of the pallet to “110CM”.

Step 4: Click [Loading Rules] on the left to enter the [Loading Rules] page. For there is no special loading demands, keep the loading rules for both containers and intermediate containers as default.

Finally, click [Loading Result] above or click [Loading Plan] on the left to calculate the load plan. Then you can get an optimal loading solution within seconds. According to the container list on the left, it can be counted that this batch of goods uses 32 pallets whose size is 12001000 and 10 pallets whose size is 11001100, and finally use one 40GP. You can click on the container name to see the 3D loading diagram of each container. On the right side of the diagram are the cargo statistics, loading steps and balance analysis of the current container.

You can share the load plan to mobile phones to guide the on-site loading and download the loading report to make the packing list to prepare for the customs declaration.

You can share the load plan to mobile phones to guide the on-site loading and download the loading report to make the packing list to prepare for the customs declaration.

Have you ever encountered this situation: when calculating the container loading plans in load planning optimization software, the goods seem to fit, but in reality during on-site loading, they don’t fit and there’s cargo left? What could be the reason behind this?

Well maybe it’s because you forget the carton may expand and also the unavoidable gap between cargoes when loading them by human labor.

So is that possible that we set aside some space in the container for these possibilities while using LoadMaster load planning optimization software?

The answer is a definite yes!

In LoadMaster load planning optimization software, users can reserve some space in the container to simulate the potential carton expansion and gap between cargoes when working staff load them into containers.

Interval and carton expansion is inevitable in actual loading operation. In order to ensure the designed loading scheme is feasible, it is necessary to reserve a certain size in advance to ensure that all the goods can be fully loaded on site.

1.If the size of the cargo is actually measured, the cargo is loaded directly after production, and the container has standard inner inches (i.e. 20GP: 589×235×239CM, 40GP: 1200×235×239CM, 40HQ: 1200×235×269CM), under such condition, two methods can be set to simulate the situation of manual loading interval. You can set the reserved size of container or cargo interval, which is an empirical value. And you can know the most reasonable size to reserve in the container after using the 3D loading plans designed by LoadMaster to guide on-site loading 2-3 times.

(1) When setting the reserved size in the container interface for the first time, the recommended numerical values are as follows:

The packaging boxes are all carton packaging, or most of them are carton packaging and only few of them are wooden boxes and iron boxes, etc., and they are directly packed by manual labor.
20GP: recommend to reserve 5-8CM in length, 3-5CM in width, 3-5CM in height
40GP/40HQ: recommend to reserve 10-15CM in length, 3-5CM in width, 3-5CM in height

The packing boxes are all wooden boxes or pallets or iron boxes, which do not involve carton loading, or only a very small number of cartons. And a forklift is used when loading.
20GP: recommend to reserve 5-8CM in length, 3-5CM in width, 10CM in height
40GP/40HQ: recommend to reserve 10-15CM in length, 3-5CM in width, 10CM in height
The [reserved height] of container should be 10CM, which means the size of corner castings(10cm×10cm×10cm) is also deducted, therefore the size of corner castings should be set to “0”.

(2) In the [Loading Rules] interface, reasonably set the [spatial separation] in length, width and height directions of each cargo. It is recommended to set about 1CM for the first use.

2.If the goods are packaged in cartons with theoretical dimensions and are stored in a warehouse for a week or more before shipment, consideration should be given to the potential expansion of the cartons due to stacking pressure in the warehouse. According to experiments conducted by Japanese experts, the deformation of cartons due to stacking pressure in warehouses ranges from 1% to 1.8% of the original dimensions.
3.If the size of the cargo has been enlarged by 1-2CM, there is no need to set the reserved size of containers or interval between cargoes.
4.If the container dimensions have been reasonably deducted, there is no need to further set aside space in the container or create gaps between the items.

In some cases, in order to load more to get a high container loading utilization rate, shippers need to calculate the maximum amount of a single cargo that can be loaded in a container. How to realize this in LoadMaster load planning optimization software? Let’s check it out with an exact example!

For example: Calculate how many cartons of cargo A: 44.5×32×26cm can be loaded in 20GP, 40GP and 40HQ respectively in a container loading calculator? It is required that the goods can only be placed with their heights vertical to the ground.

According to the loading requirements, the task type [Loading Container/Single Cargo] should be selected and click to enter.

Enter the [Basic Information] interface. The items in this page is optional, and users can fill in the PO number, order number or destination information according to actual work requirements for later check. Next, start to designing the plan:

Step 1: Click [Cargo] on the left to enter the cargo interface. Click [Add Cargo>Directly Add] and edit the name, length, width, height and load orientations of the cargo. For it is required that the goods can only be placed as the flaps of carton faces up, that is only “stand” and “stand & rotate” are allowed, you need to uncheck other orientations.

Step 2: Add containers on the [Container] page. To calculate how many cartons of A can be loaded in 20GP, 40GP, 40HQ respectively, you need to add 20GP, 40GP and 40HC into this task in this page.

For the commonly used container information is already maintained in the database, click [Import from Database], check the 20GP, 40GP and 40HC in the pop-up box, and then click [Add]. Edit the corner castings size and reserved size of the container, the size of the corner castings is 10×10×10cm.

Step 3: Click [Loading Rules] on the left to enter the [Loading Rules] page. For there is no special loading demands, you needn’t change the default rules in this page.

Click [Loading Result] above to get the loading plan. The system will calculate how many boxes A can be loaded in 20GP, 40GP, 40HQ respectively. Click the container name and you can see the 3D loading overview of each container. on the right side of the figure is the statistics of the goods. It can be seen that 20GP has 835 cartons, 40GP 1718, and 40HC 1909.

After the 3D container loading plan is completed, you can share this loading plan to mobile phone to guide the on-site loading and download the loading report to make the packing list for customs declaration.

SUPCON is one of the leading product and technology, solution and service providers of process automation. SUPCON serves various process industries such as oil & gas, chemical, power, building material, pulp & paper, metallurgy, food & beverage, public utilities, etc.

Their products need to be first packaged into wooden boxes then loaded into containers.

Before working with LoadMaster load planning optimization software, SUPCON company primarily relies on manual estimation based on key large components for assessing the volume and specifications of wooden boxes. This method poses certain risks. Additionally, during the loading of wooden boxes for shipment, if the number of boxes is small, the loading and unloading personnel can handle it independently based on their experience. However, for exports requiring container loading or when the number of boxes is large, specialized guidance for loading is necessary, requiring pre-layout calculations.

Therefore, they hope to establish an in-house database of product dimensions, facilitating automatic calculation of the required number of items for packaging and compiling a packaging list. This will form the basis for intelligent logistics.

They also expect to achieve manageable and traceable shipping and packaging processes, accurately determine container specifications and reduce the kinds of wooden boxes, establish standardized loading, and create a loading database.

After using LoadMaster, they found the following advantages:

1.User-Friendly:
The interface is clean and user-friendly, requiring no specific training for familiarization and application of software functions.

2.Cargo Data Management:
Facilitates batch cargo data import, enabling convenient data sharing and transfer.

3.Container Management:
Standard containers within the industry have been added to the database, and custom sections can also be batch imported.

4.Loading Task Management:
The exported Excel loading plan details the steps of container loading, providing clear and instructive guidance. The loading result list and intermediate packaging list are reflected in the exported plan, offering a clear view of space utilization within the containers. Based on calculated data from loading cases, the average utilization of wooden box space exceeds 80%. Additionally, it can calculate the loading space utilization, weight, volume, and other data for each paper box, wooden crate, and vehicle. This provides valuable raw data for future data analysis and size optimization.

LoadMasterhas helped improve the container loading utilization rate and shipping efficiency. The database establishment and loading calculations are remarkably efficient, yielding results better than manual calculations. Its application is straightforward, truly exemplifying a standard in the field of truck and container load planning optimization software.

Due to complicated red sea crisis these days which is like a butterfly flapping its wings, all aspects have been affected especially FAK rates.

According to the Loadstar, “a shipper contact, importing bulk commodities into the UK from China, told The Loadstar yesterday carriers were refusing to accept his heavy boxes, although he said one line had quoted him $3,000 for each 20ft. ‘I was only paying $435 per 20ft a month ago,’ he said, ‘I have no hair left!’
https://theloadstar.com/carriers-are-price-gouging-claim-shippers-as-fak-rates-skyrocket/

And according to several big shippers such as Maersk, MSC, CMA CGM, and Hapag-Lloyd, the January quotations have doubled compared to those at the end of December, including the additional fee such as TDS, PSS, RSC, EOS,and OCR.

https://finance.sina.cn/2023-12-24/detail-imzzatzx1834839.d.html?source=hfquote

Furthermore, for vessels still traversing the Red Sea, they also require purchasing more expensive insurance. It is understood that the insurance market estimates related war risk rates have increased from 0.07% to 0.1% to 0.2%. The rise in various costs like time, fuel, and insurance is bound to result in increased freight charges. According to Sina Finance, the preliminary communication with shipping companies indicates that the freight rates for mid-January in 2024 on the European route have surged from $1,500 per container to $3,500 per container.
(https://finance.sina.cn/2023-12-24/detail-imzzatzx1834839.d.html?source=hfquote)

Additionally, the world’s largest shipping company MSC announced an increase in freight rates for its Mediterranean routes to $5,000 per container effective from January 1, 2024. Industry experts view this as a strong indicator of the market’s anticipation for significant increases in shipping costs. Some industry analysis firms, such as Xeneta, even suggest that prices on the Asia-Europe route could surge by as much as 100%.

While freight prices are on the rise, energy prices are also increasing.

Under such circumstances of a general inflation, is that possible to still save some shipping costs?

The answer is, yes, maybe you can try push-pull slip sheets. Paper slip sheets are thin sheets made of Kraftliner paper that come in a variety of shapes and sizes to fit a range of needs. Similar to a wooden pallet, they are placed underneath a load of cargo and are used to push or pull the load on and off of the forklift’s forks or platens.
(https://hlcvn.vn/en/scope-of-business/impact-handling/paper-slip-sheet)

Compared to wooden pallets, slip sheets are thinner and take up way less space. More importantly, their edges and corners are foldable, which can save more space to load cargoes.

https://hlcvn.vn/en/scope-of-business/impact-handling/paper-slip-sheet

In LoadMaster load planning optimization software, after filling in the size of slip sheets, you only need to check “Is slip sheet” and then the software will fold them when necessary while calculating load plans.

According to TPV (AOC’s parent company), after replacing wooden pallets with push-pull slip sheets and with the help of LoadMaster load planning optimization software, the container loading rate has improved from 60% to 92%, 93%, a magnificent increase of over 30%, saving tens of millions of shipping costs each year.

Do you want to save shipping costs under the circumstance of FAK rate increasing? Why not try push-pull slip sheets and give LoadMaster load planning optimization software a chance to help you?

The company typically offers various types and sizes of mattresses, including memory foam and spring mattresses, catering to consumers with diverse preferences for comfortable sleep. Dreamland Mattress prioritizes quality and innovation, aiming to deliver a premium sleep experience to their customers.

According to them, LoadMaster cargo load planning software has brought numerous benefits to their work, significantly enhancing both efficiency and accuracy. Prior to using LoadMaster, container loading calculation was done manually, which was slower and prone to inefficiencies like underfilling or wasted container space, necessitating data modifications and even customs redeclaration for exports.

After using LoadMaster for container loading planning, they have never encountered situations where cargo couldn’t fit the container due to excessively high loading rates, thus eliminating container space wastage. Now, their company has achieved precise customs declarations and accurate container loading. The software has been consistently stable, and LoadMaster periodically undergoes updates and maintenance, introducing new functionalities, thereby enhancing operational speed. LoadMaste has helped them improve the container space utilization rate by at least 15%, achieving a loading rate of over 95%, saving a minimum of three hours each day. In this way, they have eliminated the unpredictable factors associated with over-reliance on manual container loading calculation based on human experience, achieving precise and efficient loading.

Dreamland mattress is also a supplier for IKEA. Due to the requirement of palletizing cargo before containerization, resulting in a lower loading rate, so in order to address this issue and improve the loading rate, they considered using a cargo loading calculator for container load planning optimization plans.

According to staff from sales department, they receive new orders every day, and it takes a considerable amount of time to calculate container loading. Manual calculation is challenging and often inaccurate. Any discrepancy between the actual container loading and the customs declared information may require order modifications, potentially delaying shipment schedules and leaving a negative impression on the clients.

However by using LoadMaster, the load plan calculation speed is faster and with clear 3D container and truck loading plans, the internal communication within the company and the communication with clients have been both improved. LoadMaster software’s “Loading Sequence”, which can realize loading cargoes according to their urgency priority, enables them to load cargoes based on the merchandise’s sales ranking and order placement time.

By using LoadMaster to calculate loading plans, if they identify any remaining container space, they can promptly notify IKEA that additional goods can be added to maximize the container space with a clear 3D load plan diagram to display and present reasonable suggestions.

According to Sleemon, maximizing space utilization while logically arranging packaging to save on logistics costs and reduce employee workload and intensity has been a key challenge for them. Therefore they came to LoadMaster cargo loading optimization software for help.

In the freight shipping process, their exact loading requirements for cargoes are as follows:

1. Some items need to be packed first, and then additional items should be packed in the remaining space.
2. If multiple containers are used, the customer demands uniform volume distribution among each container.
3. After packing, a detailed packing list for each container’s contents is required for customs clearance documentation.
4. Cargoes vary in weight, therefore, ensuring heavier items are placed at the bottom and lighter ones at the top is crucial.

With the help of LoadMaster, all the requirements have been met easily:

1. Setting parameter “Loading Sequence” in the Excel template to meet the loading order requirement of different cargoes.
2. Ensuring equal loading volumes of each container.
3. Exporting detailed and intuitive container loading solutions in Excel, showcasing multiple dimensions of container loading plans.
4. Addressing weight distribution concerns by setting parameter “Stacking Orders”, which is a relative value to differentiate the load-bearing capacities of different cargoes.
5. Catering to personalized loading requirements with manual edit, allowing cargoes moved to specified location in the container or specifies containers

Both the working efficiency and container loading rate have been greatly improved.

1. Loading staff no longer needs to brainstorm how to arrange goods to meet complex loading requirements. They simply input the relevant loading configurations as per customer requests into the software. Typically, simple loading solutions for 1-2 containers take about 3-5 minutes to calculate and export, while more complex load plans involving multiple containers and skus can be completed in approximately 10-20 minutes, significantly saving time and reducing labor costs.

2. The sales department can swiftly communicate with customers using 3D container loading plans to give suggestions of cargo quantity adjustment. The customs clearance department references the container loading reports for document preparation in the customs clearance process.

3. LoadMaster has brought about better control and transparency in the whole order shipping process.

Geely Auto Group is a key participant in the automotive industry and stands as one of China’s leading automobile manufacturers. Renowned for its innovative approach and diversified product portfolio, Geely specializes in producing various types of vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, electric cars, and commercial vehicles. As of now, Geely’s automotive products have been exported to over 100 countries and regions, spanning across Asia, Europe, South America, Africa, and Oceania. Geely maintains an extensive distribution and sales network in the international market, continually expanding its global market share.

Since Geely is from automotive industry, so it has to be faced with those industry-distinctive loading scenarios and requirements.

Let’s check it out.

Firstly, no matter the transported products are household vehicles, commercial vehicles, construction vehicles, buses, motorcycles, electric tricycles, or automotive spare parts, they are usually of large volume, heavy and high-value. Therefore in the freight shipping process, trying to avoid cargo damage is of great significance.

Then how to avoid cargo damage while loading through LoadMaster cargo loading optimization software?

①Keep the container’s or truck’s balance

1)Balance analysis to help check the offset of the center of gravity.

2)Manual edit to help adjust some certain cargo to keep the container’s balance.

3)Cargoes in the last-to-load not-fully-loaded containers are spread evenly on the ground to keep the container’s balance.

②Stack cargoes based on their load-bearing capacities

1)Determine the item placed at the bottom (As to large volume and heavy item)

2)Determine if others can be placed on top of each item.

3)Restrict the maximum total stacking layers of items with the same max stacking layers when they are allowed to stack together (Determine these items own one same stacking code, set their max layers the same, and regard them as the same SKU to stack while loading.)

4)Only allow items with the same or similar length and width to stack together.

Secondly, enterprises from automotive industry tend to ship items in batches, with large shipment volumes for a batch, dozens or hundreds of containers shipped at once. Under such circumstances, LoadMaster can intelligently select the most reasonable/cost-effective type of container for each loading solution. Also, the advanced algorithm can help meet the complicated loading constraints and the high calculation speed can help improve work efficiency. What’s more, when only a few containers are not well loaded among several hundred ones, users can lock those well-loaded containers and adjust the unlocked and not-well-loaded ones.

According to Geely, with the help of LoadMaster, now each case needs only 0.3MH to finish loading, decreasing from the original 0.6MH/CASE. Each container needs 0.1MH to finish loading, reducing from the initial 0.25MH/Container.

In the loading solution calculation, it used to need 13 people and now it only needs 7. And in the on-site loading, it used to need 15 people to stuff the cargo into containers, and now it only need 10. The work efficiency has been greatly improved. As for the loading rate, 29 standard containers can be saved for every 300 containers’ loading. That means a large amount of logistics costs can be saved, bringing the escalation of profits.
