Dynamic Bills of Materials through Custom Configuration of Your Industrial Packaging

Our solution allows you to configure specific boxes, pallets, and crates tailored to your customers' requirements. With the integrated configurator, you can capture all the details of different constructions and automatically generate the corresponding bills of materials and work plans. Additionally, you can calculate expected costs and generate customer prices with a simple click, based on your predefined settings.

Planning and Control of Packaging Processes

With our tools, such as bundle planning, packaging configurator, and container stowage, you determine which goods from your customers are packaged, how and when they are packed, and when and how they are loaded. Of course, larger quantities of smaller units can also be packaged together and processed further. All these processing steps are supported by our app, acadon_mobile, enabling paperless transactions.

Everything in View: Keep Your Packaged Goods in Focus

With acadon_packaging, you always have full transparency over the entire process of your packaged goods—from on-site capture, goods receipt, and storage to packaging and goods dispatch. Thanks to the mobile processing with the acadon_mobile app, all actions are quickly and easily recorded and can even be documented directly with photos. The billing of storage fees for your customers is also seamlessly handled through the system.

Measuring Order: Precise Dimensions for Perfect Packaging

The correct dimensions of packaging directly depend on the measurements of the goods to be packaged, provided by your customer. If these dimensions are inaccurate or missing, it can lead to significant issues, such as producing a box that’s too small.

To avoid these risks, our "Measuring Order" feature offers a seamless solution. It allows either an external service provider or an internal employee to measure the goods precisely before production. With acadon_mobile, an internal employee can capture and transmit the measurement data on-site, ensuring the data is automatically updated in the documentation.

3D View: Inspect Your Packaging in Detail

Are you unsure if your configured industrial packaging is correct? Often, the calculations are so complex that it’s hard to tell from the formulas alone whether the box meets the requirements. This is where the 3D view helps!

With a clear 3D preview, you can instantly see the result of your bill of materials calculation. You can rotate and tilt the model in all directions, closely inspecting the dimensions of each individual component. This ensures that your packaging precisely matches your specifications and requirements.

Always Stay on Top of Inventory and Goods Movements

With our system, you always have full control over your raw material stock and materials in production. Goods receipts, transfers, and inventories are carried out effortlessly and efficiently with the acadon_mobile app. Tracking batches or packages and monitoring certificates (e.g., FSC, PEFC) is straightforward. Automated stock alerts and reorder functions with a simple click make inventory management easier. With the acadon_BI tool, you can flexibly analyze your inventory changes and strategically optimize the value of your warehouse.
