Frequently Asked Questions

• What kind of problem will StackBuilder help me solve?

StackBuilder is designed to solve homogeneous stacking problems, which means it can ONLY solve problems involving a single item (box/case). Also, for the time being, it builds solutions from homogeneous layers in which the vertical axis remains the same. It cannot provide solutions where a « turned » item is used to fill the remaining space.
