Koona Quick Pallet Maker--Most products are shipped in boxes and then in standard pallets. These standard pallets are shipped into standard containers or in trucks. Frequently, there is some extra volume and/or weight in the containers or in the trucks that is billed anyway by the carrier but that is not used by the client. Hence, optimizing the pallet loads should be a top priority for manufacturers.
Based on this need, they have created Quick Pallet Maker, an easy to learn pallet loading/ package design program that allows the user to calculate the optimal secondary package dimensions and pallet arrangements, thus reducing shipping costs. The user enters primary package or box dimensions and rapidly assembles optimal pallet configurations that can be explained with easy-to-understand graphics. Quick Pallet Maker is available for free testing online through direct download. The user can test the demo version for a period of 30-days and ask questions.
