TOPS Pro SoftwareTOPS®Pro Designs Primary Pack, Intermediate Pack, Trays, Packer, Shipcase and performs Stacking Strength Analysis

               

Don't know the size of the shipcase to fit around your product? No sweat. TOPS®Pro can calculate it and perform box design for you. You can define how many of your primary packages to go inside your master shipcase or use a range of that item for the best yield of efficiency. You can even tell TOPS the maximum amount of items to load around the Length, Width, or Height of the container.

In addition to ship case design and optimization, TOPS®Pro's Database feature can also make the best use of your existing shipcases. Just plug in the length, width and height of your carton, TOPS®Pro will give you a list of shipcases that work best for your carton.
 

 

  

Primary Pack Design

Primary Pack

  • Build containers, including  bottles, milk cartons, bag, can or tub.
  • Optimize product size or create intermodal containers.
  • Use from a host of pre-defined shapes or Create A Shape Yourself through the CASY Primary Package module.
  • Add graphics or company logos to different sides of the containers to create more realistic items.
  • Pack containers individually or have them in bundles.

 
Tray Shipcase or Intermediate Pack Design

Tray or Packer

  • Use the CASY Tray feature to create handholds or custom tray shapes.
  • Add dividers or pads in between layers. TOPS®Pro comes with a host of dividers with stacking strength values built in. You can also create your own dividers or insert pads between layers of your product in the container.
  • Specify flute and board grade to meet ECR and ECT (compression strength) tests, even for the dividers.

 
Shipper, Secondary Pack Design

Shipper

  • Pick an existing ship case from the TOPS®Pro database or let TOPS®Pro calculates it for you.
  • Specify the exact quantity of primary packages for the shipcase or enter a range for the best yield of efficiency.
  • Set limit on the quantity along each dimension of new ship cases.
  • Use the McKee formula along with other factors to calculate Stacking Strength results based on Edge Crush, Ring Crush, Kellicut or user specified equations for answers.
  • Full flexibility to enter your own paper and board values. You can also "filter" out values for quick reference.
  • Define shipcase pattern styles.
