With businesses in every sector under pressure to save on shipping and transportation costs, Esko has launched the latest version of its Cape palletisation software, which offers customers a complete cloud based workflow for palletisation and logistics optimisation.
Delivering the triple benefits of being easy to deploy, easy to use, and easy to share across multiple users around the world, Cape Pack 22.07 has been developed to improve ways of working and optimise operational processes.
‘Cape Pack now delivers all the benefits of our modular palletisation software but with no software installation, more intuitive operation and importantly the ability to store and access information from anywhere, at any time,’ said Richard Deroo, product manager with Esko. ‘It helps determine the best product size, case count, product arrangement, case size, pallet and container load, enabling businesses to optimise their packaging for shipping. The software can also create new case sizes, build efficient pallet patterns, analyse compression strength of cases and pallets, and improve material and cube utilisation.’
With software as a service (SaaS) deployment, Cape Pack 22.07 delivers next generation palletisation as an end to end workflow solution – from data input to reporting – via a Cloud platform.
‘The new interface and 24 hour a day, seven days a week global access make it simple for Cape Pack 22.07 users to save critical, up to the minute information in the cloud to share with colleagues around the corner or around the globe,’ said Richard. ‘This not only speeds up the design and approval processes, but also enables users to build more efficient pallet patterns and optimise cube space utilisation.’
‘The pallet software supports cartons, cylinders and trapezoids, as well as trays and bundles,’ he said. ‘Being cloud based, it is incredibly easy to calculate solutions for folding cartons, cases and pallets, while users can now also easily share palletisation reports complete with load formatting, edited layer patterns and truck analysis data, delivering faster time to market.’
Richard said the ease of use, ease of deployment and ability to quickly and easily share data were key objectives during the development of Cape Pack 22.07. ‘At Esko, we are committed to ensuring our innovations are integrated quickly and smoothly to ensure businesses achieve demonstrable improvements and a speedy return on their investment,’ he said. ‘We are focused on helping customers not only successfully adopt our new technology, but also to make best use of it to deliver immediate results.’
