Tank and Compartment Loading

Description Complex Load Planning with compartmentalized trucks and multiple stop routes is required to create feasible loads to provide your customers with your liquid products. ORTEC has developed a solution to assist your dispatchers in managing these challenges and also provide management with better control over their distribution process. This solution is designed to be used in an operational environment to support daily transport planning and dispatch operations.

Challenge Multiple products in various order quantities less than a full-truck-load have to be planned on one truck together in a pickup or delivery route. Many compatibility rules between product and truck, product and compartment have to be checked or even previous loaded products requires cleaning of a compartment during a route. Axle Weight constraints have to be fulfilled and the concrete load quantities per compartment are needed to automate the truck loading process in your distribution centre.

Solution ORTEC Load Building for compartments offers you the following benefits:

  • Optimized trailer compartment utilization
  • Axle weight restrictions
  • Contamination rules and flush times
  • Ability to work with forecasted and actual delivery volumes
