Containers
A Container is defined as any object that you may wish to load with smaller items. In Cube-IQ, this is either a rectangular Container, or one with a (within limits) irregularly shaped floor and/or ceiling.
Examples of rectangular Containers are:
•ocean containers
•pallets
•crates
•trucks/trailers
•rail cars
•boxes.
Examples of irregular Containers are airline containers such as:
•LD-3 (AKE/AVE)
•LD-7
•XAW
Note: airline containers (Unit Load Devices, ULD's) may have cut-off corners along the top and/or bottom of one or more walls.
Certain types of trucks, for example split-level trucks, may need to be set up as irregular Containers as well. Alternatively 'Unusable spaces' can be used, or 'Zones'.
Custom Containers
Cube-IQ offers a new feature called 'Container sizing' to determine optimal container dimensions.
