Calculated result

48 cartons / pallet

8 cartons per layer (TI)

6 loaded layers (HI)

164.4 cm loaded height

505 kg gross pallet weight

100% first-layer footprint coverage

Height is limiting

3 pallets for 100 cartons

4 cartons on final pallet

1. Pallet footprint = 120 × 80 cm; carton base = 40 × 30 cm.
2. Test upright 90° row orientations and mixed row splits → 8 cartons per layer (TI).
3. Height layers = floor((170 − 14.4) ÷ 25) = 6.
4. Space capacity = 8 × 6 = 48 cartons.
5. Weight capacity = floor((1,000 − 25) ÷ 10) = 97 cartons.
6. Usable capacity = min(48, 97) = 48 cartons per pallet.
7. Pallets required = ceil(100 ÷ 48) = 3.

Planning estimate only. Cartons stay upright with no overhang. The row-mixing search does not prove a globally optimal 2D packing pattern and does not model crush strength, stability, interlocking, load securement or carrier/legal limits.
