ABSTRACT: One of the most important
issues in storage and transport processes is the formation of unit loads. Our
main goal is to investigate the homogenization of unit load formation cases. We
provide a model involving the major factors and parameters for the optimal
selection of the unit load formations. Objective functions and constraints
related to the basic tasks are formulated. We give a method for the selection
of the optimal unit load formation equipment for a given
number of products under given constraints.
