Loading Trucks

Hi
I have 3 types of trucks as follows:
truck A L = 12.7 W = 2.2 H = 2.62
truck B L = 11.02 W = 2.2 H = 2.62
truck C L = 6 W = 2.3 H = 2
I have products of different dimensions as follows:
1 ltr. product 0.4 -0.2 - 0.2
200 Ml. product 0.37 -0.12 - 0.15
in the main warehouse that we send to the sub warehouse
as example attachment for " Order sheet "
I have Problem loading trucks with more than one package type
Required :

Few questions:
What are 'carton' sizes? ( I could call those eg box .. cube )
Many times, at least those L & W are always same ... and if H is as well as same, then much useful.
How tight would You pack those 'cartons'?
... or do You ... pack 'some' ... thousands ... 200ml products into trucks ... hmm?
Is there clear logic, how those 'cartons' should pack?
... both loading and unloading should do as it won't make any harm for the whole procedure.

I agree with you to name the carton a box
- Product name + size = item name
The previous post contains numbers, for example. Now I send you the actual data:
There are only two types of trucks:
1 - The first truck measures dimensions length 13 meters - width 2.5 meters - height 2.35 meters
2 - The second truck measures dimensions length = 7.5 meters - width 2.5 meters - height 2,35 meters
- 1 liter box:
- Its dimensions are length = 0.26 - width = 0.223 - height = 0.26
Each 60 boxes are placed in a package measuring length 5 boxes - width 3 boxes - height 4 boxes
200 ml box:
Its dimensions are length = 0 .355 - width = 0.16 - height = 0. 123
Each 112 boxes are placed in a package measuring 7 boxes in length, 2 in width, and 8 in height
There are some assumptions:
1 - There are pallets on the floor of the container, height 13 cm
2 - It is not allowed to rise more than 4 boxes from 1 liter
3 - It is not allowed to rise more than 8 boxes from 200 ml
4 - It is allowed to add individual boxes outside the packages of 1 liter or 200 ml at the end of the rows
5 - In the future, we will divide the containers into two parts to allow adding more than 4 boxes in 1 liter
6 - The rest of the shipping orders will be carried over to the next shipping date

Are those package as in that snapshot?
... what is/are pallet measures?
There seems to be one layer of packages.
You didn't comment my
... both loading and unloading should do as it won't make any harm for the whole procedure.
( or do all shipping goes to one place = 'all-in-and-all-out' )

Yes . There is only one layer of pallet
The shipment goes to one place
Comment on the drawing: I attached a drawing from me and sorry for the bad drawing
Pallet scale alone: Height 0.13 on the floor of the container - length 1.115 - Width 0.78

Yes . There is only one layer of pallet but It is allowed to add individual boxes outside the packages of 1 liter or 200 ml at the end of the rows

Did You confirm those my given packages sizes?
Your drawings looks different than Your given details - compare to my drawings.
... not so match with Your pallet-size ...hmm?
How those (4) stays is stabile place while moving?
 
vletm
The drawing is more accurate because it is the dimensions of the pallet that fill the spaces in the container.
Make 2 rolls per ballet of thin plastic as packaging
 
Mamdouh Elfors
eg 1 liter box

My drawing has also both dimensions AS You have written:
-- length = 0.26 x 5 boxes -- width = 0.223 x 3 boxes -- height = 0.26 x 4 boxes --- with total dimensions
Your drawing has something else :
-- length = 0.23 x 3 boxes -- width = 0.233 x 5 boxes -- height = 0.26 x 4 boxes

Is it fine ... if You give two different specs and one of those cannot use with those Your pallets?

Your original Required : How to put cartons in cars that carry more than one type of package
My opinion is that no matter ... Your pallet is the key ... which are same for both packages or how?
Of course, those 200ml packages are 'just' too large ...

Other point is that, if You could use 'pallets', which ables to use second layer, then You could load 100% more.
 
vletm
Thank you for your patience, I really appreciate it
To avoid confusion, let us bring the specs back :
We are now developing a solution for trucks carrying only two types of pallets.
Pallet sizes:

Pallet 1 Ltr. : 3 boxes x 0.26 / 5 boxes x 0.223 / height 4 boxes x 0.26
Pallet 200ml : 2 boxes x 0,355 / 7 boxes x 0.16 / height 8 boxes x 0.123
It is not allowed to put a second layer on the pallet
It is allowed to add additional boxes at the end of the rows.
Box sizes:

1 liter type
: 0.26 x 0.223 x height 0.26
200ml type : 0 .355 x 0. 16 x Height 0.123
Truck Container dimensions:
A : Length
13 - Width 2.5 - Height 2 35
B : Length 7.5 - Width 2.5 - Height 2.35
 
So ... what is Your point?
Pallet sizes are the key - those needs same area - You're using only one kind of pallet size as You've written.
Those '1Ltr' and '200ml' pallets could mix as needed.
My 'other point' able to load more with different kind of 'pallet' and then could use full capacity of trucks container, if needed.
= less transport with bigger volume of 'pallets' would save a lot? Of course, if volume do not need bigger, then ... no.
