BCA Barcode Alliance, in conjunction with Cape Systems Group, announced the release of Pallet Lite to the South African market this week.
The release incorporates a variety of features designed to simply generate pallet pattern solutions for users engaged in warehousing, transport, quality control, manufacturing, despatch and logistics.
Pallet Lite is an entry level software, created as an easy to use alternative to the Cape Pack palletising and packaging product, developed by Cape. Pallet Lite offers a simple-to-use software package, which can be easily downloaded from the Cape Web site.
A demo version is also available on the Web site for trial. Once the case dimensions have been entered - pallet type, the height and weight of the pallet - Pallet Lite will provide you with a range of palletising options. You can then share your chosen solution with colleagues via e-mail, export the report in PDF format or interface the results with another program application.
Peter Ayling, Cape's Head of International Marketing, commented: "Our research shows that continued pressure on supply-chain costs combined with the individual palletising needs of retail organisations has created a need for more people to generate and communicate information on how efficient pallet loads should be built. Pallet Lite will provide thousands of these new Cape users with a simple and cost-effective tool that can be used by almost anyone."
The Pallet Lite software has been designed for installation to a single PC, and other features include print preview report, change program language, print report and the exporting of numerical solutions in CSV format.
Says Bob Cork, MD of BCA Barcode Alliance: "Our association with Cape Systems for the past 20 years has allowed us to bring leading-edge palletising technology to the South African market. Savings, efficiencies and improved space management has given local producers the ability to offer their local and international customers the best choices, and the information is presented in the most professional way.
"Pallet Lite is once again proof of the focus Cape has in addressing the changing, new and important needs of the customers we serve."
CAPE is offering the Pallet Lite program to end-users, resellers and system integrators who include pallet patterns as part of their revenue generating services.
