Freight rate calculator: Online price-quote
platform Freightos Ltd. has launched a freight
rate calculator that gives retailers, exporters,
distributors, and wholesalers better visibility of
shipping rates in a market with increasing use
of spot quotes and rising rate volatility.
The free tool improves transparency by offering real-time full-container load, less-than-con-tainer load, air, and truck door-to-door freight
estimates generated from live market rates.
Freightos developed the rate calculator to
tap into live market data, aggregated across
multiple forwarders. The calculator uses routing and pricing algorithms to calculate fees and
surcharges for truck, air, and ocean shipping,
calculating anticipated ranges for shipping
along different lanes by a variety of modes.
Freightos also offers an alternative version that
provides freight shipping estimates directly
to Amazon warehouses participating in the
Fulfillment by Amazon program. (Freightos

Palletizing system software: Intelligrated has introduced its IntelliGen palletizing software, which allows operations to easily adjust pallet load configurations
without the need for extra programming or cumbersome integration. Designed
for robotic palletizing operations that handle a variety of product types and sizes,
the new software enables operators to simply adjust load patterns and stacking
characteristics based on changing product dimensions and other variables, offering improved flexibility, speed, and load
integrity.
The IntelliGen software comes integrated
with the robotic cell’s standard control system and allows facility operations personnel
to select user-defined load configurations,
greatly simplifying product changeovers.
The software also provides the capability
to adjust load configurations, patterns, and
product sizes without the need to make a service call or leverage complex external
software programs.
Facility staff can use IntelliGen to make these changes with minimal training,
extending the palletizing cell’s capability beyond the initial product mix. The
software’s advanced functionality also includes row-forming and case-turning,
enabling multiple piece picks and drops on multiple rows, yielding higher rates
than competitive alternatives, the company says.
The IntelliGen platform offers wide-ranging compatibility with major robotic
arm brands and supports a variety of customized end-of-arm tooling. (Intelligrated,
