Optipacker platform

Software for industrial packaging teams to define parts, calculate container layouts, model packaging investment and prepare purchasing.

Access requests are reviewed. Approved teams receive an invitation.

01 / Project data

Parts, models and containers

Inputs: Part dimensions, STL models, quantities and annual project volumes.
Resources: Standard container templates and organization-managed packaging resources. Models, packaging configurations and project records share organization and project access controls.
File attachments: Create a part from an STL file and review its dimensions. Attach an STL or STEP file of up to 50 MiB to a saved part.

02 / Packing

Settings: Container dimensions, permitted rotations, inter-part gaps and container clearances.
Arranged result: Calculated part positions from dimensions and packing constraints. Inspect the layout and layers in 3D, packed quantity, occupied volume and unused space.
Bulk estimate: Early loose-fill capacity planning for supported part shapes. The result is an estimate without calculated part placements; review its assumptions before choosing a packaging approach.

03 / Configuration and design

Inserts: Include inserts in the packaging configuration. For inserts that Optipacker supplies, our engineers review and revise the design before releasing the technical drawing and current version for purchasing.
Pallet settings: Plan container layers against pallet height, weight and load-zone constraints.

04 / Planning

Inputs: Component costs, project volumes, circulation, replacement needs, operating costs, amortization terms and a planning horizon.
Financial results: Packaging pool requirements, investment, cost recovery, payback and multi-year cash flow. Results depend on your inputs and may show no break-even within the planning horizon.
Demand planning: Turn the packaging bill of materials and project volumes into demand forecasts and purchase requirements. Demand planning can start before design release.
Purchasing: Create purchase orders once the required design review and release gates are met. Track order status and receipts as the project progresses.

05 / Integration

Container recommendations for e-commerce and logistics applications.

Request: Item dimensions, quantities and candidate containers.
Access: An authenticated REST API with a valid authentication token.
Result: Use container recommendations in your own integration. Single-SKU arranged requests can return 3D placements; mixed-SKU requests return a volume and dimension estimate.
