Recyclable dunnage, containers and/or supplier owned returnables must be approved by the receiving plant’s Material Handling Engineer. 1.0 Introduction The following are DaimlerChrysler’s packaging and shipping requirements to which each supplier must adhere. This revised version of the manual becomes effective July 1, 2001 and supersedes the prior July 1,1999 publication. The purpose of this manual is to inform our supply base of our general guidelines required to achieve optimum part quality delivery to and zero solid waste discharge from our facilities. With the cooperation of all parties, we can continually make improvements, increase our competitiveness, and minimize costs. To ensure that all packages and shipments will reach their intended point of use without damage to parts, all packages must be tested under simulated real-life conditions. Initial shipments of new packaging must be accompanied by a completed version of the Test Package label (See Page 33). Suppliers looking for other testing guidelines may refer to ASTM standards D-4169, D-1083, and D-999. DaimlerChrysler’s Corporate Material Handling Engineering Department will provide feedback to suppliers regarding the results of the Test Package shipment and the acceptability of the package design. 1.1 Compliance Due to the significant importance to our operations, the adherence to these packaging and shipping requirements is mandatory and will be continuously monitored. Non-compliance to the instructions contained in this manual will be brought to the attention of the supplier by means of an RDR, “Receiving Discrepancy Report” issued by our receiving plants. RDR’s may also be issued by DCX (SUPPERS) approved Logistics providers (consolidators/poolpoints). Charges for repackaging and/or disposal of any non-recyclable materials will be billed back to the shipping location. Any persistent violation or recurring problem will be referred to the appropriate DaimlerChrysler buyer for corrective action as necessary. All features/surfaces considered critical to the quality or operation of the part (e.g., machined surface, bore, etc.) must be protected from damage and/or moisture, road dust, wood chips, or other debris as required by DaimlerChrysler Product Engineering. Protective caps and plugs used to protect these surfaces must be made of clear, low density polyethylene, LDPE, SPI4, unless otherwise specified. Supplier initiated packaging or cost improvements are encouraged, but must be initiated and approved through the DaimlerChrysler Program to ensure that our plants’ productivity is not adversely affected. 2.0 Packaging and Shipping Data Upon quotation all suppliers must furnish the actual cost for each item purchased to package the part to the appropriate purchasing activity via the Package Data Sheet, Clause Number 282, (See Page 35 for form 84-183-8000). Costs for the pallet, box or container, dunnage, and containment (e.g., strapping or glues), must be submitted separately for inclusion into the purchase order. 3.0 General Requirements The determination of the type of recyclable dunnage, containers and/or supplier-owned returnable (per guidelines on Pages 2-9 of this manual) package design is the supplier’s responsibility, and the supplier must ensure that the parts and all packaged shipments are received in acceptable (damage free) condition and are efficiently and economically packaged for the method of transportation and type All packaging must conform to all government and transportation rules and regulations. The packaging of hazardous materials must follow relevant regulations of the U.S. Dept. of Transportation, which prescribes the proper method of classification, packaging, marking, and labeling of each shipment. Furthermore, where other federal, state, or local standards and/or regulations are in effect the packaging and labeling must comply. 1 For all manually handled conveyances, the container and product gross weight combined must not exceed local plant contractual limits or governmental regulations. NOTE: DaimlerChrysler Ergonomic Guidelines currently recommend for small lot containers containing product, a maximum weight of 30 lbs (13.63 kg). Except in emergency situations and with expedites, suppliers must request deviations from these guidelines in writing from the affected receiving location. Deviations originating from DaimlerChrysler Corporation will be provided to the supplier in writing by the affected activity. When recyclable packaging is used instead of the returnable container, the associated container entry for the part A.S.N. must be either “00000EXP” or “0000EXPM,” as appropriate. Mixing of part numbers on a pallet unit load is discouraged. However, when unavoidable due to handling/shipping expense, unit loads must have the proper “Mixed Load” label as seen on page 26. Each unit load must also be identified with a properly addressed “Destination Label” (See Page 27). A “Master Label” must be used when multiple packs of the same part numbers are shipped, each shipment must be properly labeled. For further clarification, reference Trading Partner Labels Manual Level B10 (May 1995) and section 5.6 of this manual. 4.0a Payment for Expendable Packaging - 092 Process The supplier is required to submit for 092 payment on the ITA segment of the ASN. Starting January 2, 2001, 092 charges will not be accepted through an 810 transaction for all North American ERS plants. If your PRIMARY packaging for a part is expendable and NOT returnable, your expendable charges must be in the 198 clause on your PO. The container number assigned to these parts is EXPLLLWWHH, showing the length width and height of the cardboard box. Suppliers must assure that packaging materials in need of repair are not used for shipping purposes. Suppliers must follow their “Routing Instructions” and use the specified transportation designated by DaimlerChrysler Logistics. If you are assigned a container and are out, and need to ship in cardboard, you are to put 00000EXP or 0000EXPM on the ASN in the associated container line and in the RC line. DaimlerChrysler Material Handling Engineering and the receiving location have the option, if necessary, of approving or rejecting a supplier’s selection of packaging materials and sources. Effective January 2, 2001 Prior to shipping expendable packaging (cardboard), as a legitimate alternative to the assigned returnable container, into 4.0 Recyclable Packaging All packaging previously referred to as expendable, will for the intent of this manual be referred to as recyclable. For more information reference AIAG RC 7 & 8. Width Length Overall Height Notched Stringer (Runners) Figure 1. Flush Notched Stringer Type Pallet (4 way entry) Opening 2-1/2” from top of notch to bottom of bottom deckboard Opening Height 3-1/2” 2 ANY DaimlerChrysler facility, excluding Mopar, Mexico, and International, a supplier must contact LINC. 4.1 Wooden Pallets Type All wooden pallets shipped into DaimlerChrysler facilities must be of double face non-reversible wood construction and be of flush stringer design, (Figure 1). Supplier must provide: a contact name, phone number, supplier name, supplier code, part number shipped in expendable, date of expendable shipment and the plant to which the expendable was shipped. The Ship ID number or SID number reported to LINC must match exactly what is submitted to DaimlerChrysler for payment of the 092. Invoices for cardboard will be rejected if this communication is not made prior to a shipment of parts in expendable packaging. The LINC operator is responsible to provide the supplier with an incident number; provided either over the phone or as a reply to the suppliers e-mail. The supplier should record the incident number as a reference if questions arise regarding 092 invoices. Invoices for cardboard will be rejected if this process is not followed. Single wing, double wing, or block pallets are not allowed. Pallets must not be smaller in length and width than the load. All pallets must be able to support a 2800# load while triple stacked; wooden pallets must conform to Spec M of the Uniform Voluntary Standards for Wooden Pallets published by The National Wooden Pallet and Container Manufacturers Association, and be stencilled in letters no less than 1-1/2” high on a stringer “SPEC M” for multiple use and the dimensional length and width. Please fill out the Supplier Container Cost Analysis form in the back of the manual when submitting for packaging costs. Deck Boards All deck boards must be either 32” (812mm) or 48” (1219mm) in length, no less than 5/8” thick, and attached by a minimum of two double screw nails on each side to the stringers parallel to the 3.5” (88mm) entry openings. Figure 2. Typical Corrugated Pallets 3 dispensation, on International shipments. If you are concerned that the weight of your load cannot be supported by a corrugated pallet, contact your Corporate or Plant Material Handling Engineer for approval prior to shipping. Cross Ties All pallets and pallet bins must be constructed with cross ties on the stringers (runners) identical to the deckboards. Footprints & Entry Four footprints are allowable: Entry Width Length 2 30” (762mm) X 32” (812mm) 4 40” (1016mm) X 48” (1219mm) 4 45” (1143mm) X 48” (1219mm) 4 48” (1219mm) X 54” (1372mm) Use of larger sizes (i.e., sea-containers) requires plant approval. Reuse Pallets meeting DaimlerChrysler’s specifications can be, and are encouraged to be, reused provided they are inspected for durability prior to shipment and conform to the requirements of the Voluntary Standards for Wooden Pallets published by the NWPCMA. Repurchase Suppliers wishing to purchase quantities of the specified pallets back from DaimlerChrysler may contact our plant recycling teams. 4.1a Four Way Entry All pallets are to be four way entry. Deviations must be approved by the receiving plant. 4.2 Corrugated Pallets Corrugated pallets are an allowable alternative to wooden pallets in lightweight applications if they are recyclable, (i.e., not impregnated with polymers or wax). Use requires prior approval, in writing, from the receiving location and/or Corporate Material Handling Engineering. If used, they are to meet the footprint specifications for wooden pallets and be designed to withstand 90% humidity at 150 degrees Fahrenheit (65.6 degrees Celsius) exposure during handling, transit and storage. Some examples of typical corrugated pallets are shown in (Figure 2). Figure 3. Certificate of Box Maker 4.2a Corrugated Pallets (International Only) Corrugated Pallets are mandatory, unless given prior 4 a. Handling labor b. Handling equipment c. Transportation cost (cube utilization) d. Packaging e. Floor space f. Direct labor g. Recyclability 4.3 Expendable Containers Generally, selection of a corrugated container will depend upon the specific part or material, the method of transportation and the method of handling required by the supplier and the receiver. However, certain basic factors deserve consideration. Packages which are to be manually handled are subject to more rough handling than those handled mechanically and consequently require more protection. Package size, strength and type must be selected to fit the method of transportation and the applicable carrier regulations, extent of protection from the elements, number of transfer points, distance of travel, and the roughness of route. The specific method used should be chosen to best fulfill the prerequisites of good packaging practice for any given commodity. Other factors of equal importance that must receive due consideration are the packaging costs. In finalizing the design, the following factors must be considered: Figure 4. Breakaway pallet box with perforations on bottom. Paper Tube Corrugated Column Pre-Formed Paper Column WOOD PAPER Figure 5. Corner support options. 5 All expendable containers must be loaded to cubic capacity to maintain load density and package integrity, and to obtain optimum freight rates. However, containers should not be stacked, unless they are the same type of container. (i.e. EXP0583232 and EXP0483424 should not be stacked on top of each other). 110” (2794mm) under full load. If attached to a wooden pallet, they must also be of breakaway design with minimal staple usage to allow easy disassembly (Figure 4). The breakaway design features die cut perforations on the top and bottom flanges. Staples are placed inside the perforated area to secure the box to the pallet or top supports. Boxes must contain cutting guides to prevent part damage. 4.3a Proper Palletization Each shipping unit must be properly palletized in level layers to allow for stacking and proper utilization of transportation. (Note: If your “Standard Pack Quantity”(defined in glossary) does not equate to a level layer contact the appropriate Plant “Just in Time” JIT coordinator or Plant Logistics Analyst for resolution. Each pallet box must be properly labeled on two adjacent sides per DaimlerChrysler Labeling Instructions (see Section 5.6). 4.3.1a Corrugated Pallet Boxes (International Only) All corrugated pallet boxes must be of sufficient strength to withstand triple stacking to a height of 110” under full load. If however, you are using your corrugated pallet box for International shipments, the stacking height requirements is to 88”. It is mandatory that when a supplier ships in sufficient volume to warrant palletization that the parts or materials be loaded on a pallet or packaged as a unit load. 4.3.2 Corner Supports When corner posts are required for stacking strength, the preferred option is corrugated posts glued into place. Wooden corner supports require plant approval and must not be stapled to the boxes, instead they are to be held in place by use of die cut fold ins (Figure 5) with the flaps stapled over them. All containers, trays, caps, and multi-wall tubes must have a manufacturer’s certificate with bursting, puncture, or ECT edge crush test visible on the assembled container (Figure 3). Rice paper, or yellow corrugated is not allowed. Shipments to Europe and Mexico may require more durable packaging than materials shipped to the US and Canada. Shipments to our European operations require the use of specially designed, stackable containers used to fully cube out the ISO container. 4.3.3 Corrugated Cartons Two basic types of corrugated cartons are allowable; (Pages 7 & 8) however the only acceptable methods of sealing manually handled cartons are strippable reinforced tape or spot gluing. Asphaltic or plastic tapes are not allowed. Staples are only acceptable with prior approval from the receiving plant. 4.3.1 Corrugated Pallet Boxes All corrugated pallet boxes must be of sufficient strength to withstand triple stacking to a height of Cartons must not overhang the pallet or weigh more than maximum allowed by local plant contractual limits or governmental regulations. (See NOTE on page 2 for limits). Carton sizes must be equivalent (dimensions/density) to existing DaimlerChrysler standard returnable containers used in assembly and manufacturing locations. All cartons must be secured to a pallet per DaimlerChrysler guideline 4.3.5. Figure 6. Properly Palletized 6 All cartons shipped on a pallet must be properly palletized (Figure 6). standard J-1344 and/or meet any local governmental regulations which may apply. Mixed loads are to be properly labeled per DaimlerChrysler Labeling Specifications (see Section 5.6) and the following criteria must be observed when shipping to a manufacturing plant: Dunnage should be designed to minimal levels, (e.g., as little as possible) and still protect the part. The following are not allowed as packaging materials for DaimlerChrysler: a. Right and left hand parts are not to be mixed on the same pallet. b. Cartons must be uniform in size to maintain load stability. c. Only one plant per load. d. Avoid shipping less than a full layer. Starch Co-polymers, SPI 7 Cross link polyethylene PP-Polypropylene, SPI 5 ABS-Acrylonitributylstyrene EPS (sheets also) Rubber - rice paper Co-mingled material Foam sheeting - wooden crates Cushion foam pkg 4.3.4 Interior Dunnage No mixed material is acceptable. All plastic materials must be recyclable and marked with the standard symbol in accordance with SAE Half Slotted Box with Cover (HSC) Can be used as combination shipper and self package and for various applications where cover must be removed and replaced. Single Face Consists of one layer of corrugated medium bonded to single layer of linerboard. Provides cushioning for products wrapped in it. 7 Single Wall Has a second facing glued to the other side of the fluted medium. Results in a rigid structure. Double Wall Adds another fluted medium and another sheet of linerboard for greater strength. It has three facings with two fluted corrugated medium sheets between them. Has a high stacking strength and is a good application for heavy products. Triple Wall Consists of four facings with three fluted corrugated medium sheets between them. Offers exceptional strength for packaging very large or heavy products. 8 4.3.5 Containment The preferred method of containment is plastic, heat sealed strapping of green polyester. The use of unitizing adhesives for cartons is acceptable and encouraged. It is the suppliers responsibility to secure all material unit loads with adequate banding. 5.1 Recyclable Backup Suppliers must maintain a sufficient supply of suitable recyclable packaging to be used for expedited shipments, production pilot programs, alleviating container shortages, service orders, and/or plants not participating in the returnable container program, e.g., CKD. This backup packaging must be dimensionally (interior) the same as, be in the same footprint as and maintain the identical density as the returnable container it is replacing. Each backup recyclable container must accommodate the identical interior dunnage (where required) as the corresponding returnable container. Identical footprints are required to insure that line display and workstations do not demand layout restructuring when wrong-sized alternative packaging is used. Backups must also meet all other applicable corporate material handling specifications if used. (Also reference the Process Sign-Off Procedure and the Production Part Approval Process). Metal banding and/or seals are allowed on an exception basis only. PVC stretch film is not allowed. Shrink film is acceptable only if any labels used and adhered to the film are of the same material. 5.0 Returnable Containers Returnable containers are intended to be used repeatedly and frequently and have proven to be the packaging of choice for DaimlerChrysler. Their success as cost effective packaging depends on how well they are cared for, controlled, and returned to be reused. A variety of factors deserve consideration in the decision to use returnables, factors such as: a. b. c. d. e. f. g. Initial cost Facility/equipment constraints Repair costs Transportation costs Standardization Return ratio Geographic relationships (location of suppliers) h. Volume i. Handling costs j. Cleaning k. Environmental concerns l. Product protection m. Tracking costs n. Administrative costs o. Visual inventory management p. Ergonomic issues Due to these factors returnable containers are not always the most cost effective choice for packaging. (For more information reference AIAG-RC-5). 9 5.1a Recyclable Backup (International Only) In most cases the Recyclable Backup container may be used as the International Shipping Carton (container). The following dimensions were designed for sea container cube utilization. The small lot sizes are similar to DaimlerChrysler’s returnable tote system. These sizes are required unless otherwise in agreement with the receiving plant. The supplier is responsible for the packaging design, prototype, and purchase of all corrugated packaging.

Use only 100% recyclable hotmelt or glue. Banding: Nylon if required. Pallet must be 100% corrugated and have 4 way entry. If your parts are outside the above dimensional specifications, work with your current corrugated supplier and obtain approval prior to shipping. The above specifications are listed as 350# CB double/double wall (4 ply corrugated). In most cases, a triple wall corrugated will meet the requirements of International shipments. 11 5.2 Ownership Returnable containers can be either DaimlerChrysler or supplier-owned and be made of either metal or plastic. The use of wooden pallets as returnables is discouraged due to their confusion with the recyclable pallets. All DaimlerChrysler returnable containers are not to be used for any WIP (work in process) or storage of any raw materials. DaimlerChrysler Corporation does not pay deposits on returnables. e) For racks, the associated “container” is the rack. A separate returnable container line item must be created for each unique associated rack/container and for each associated removable dunnage, pallet, lid, sleeve, etc. indicating the total number of each piece included in the shipment. Specific A.S.N. requirements for both parts and packaging are located in the “DaimlerChrysler EDI Conventions Manual – 856 Advance Ship Notice” This manual is available by three methods: from the DaimlerChrysler EDI group, via the SPIN home page, or directly at URL http://supplier.chrysler.com/ general/edi/drg_trans_prod.shtml. For all supplier-owned returnables, suppliers must complete and submit a “Unit Load Data Sheet” (See Page 24) for written approval to the Corporate Material Handling Engineering or to the appropriate receiving plant prior to use of these returnables.. Many DaimlerChrysler systems and the third party container management systems rely on the integrity of part and container A.S.N.s. Failure to properly submit packaging A.S.N.s will result in container/ dunnage shortage and excess costs to DaimlerChrysler. These excess costs incurred by DaimlerChrysler can, and will, be charged back to the supplier via a Receiving Discrepancy Report (RDR). 5.3 Identification All returnable containers, racks, trays, totes, etc. mu4st have clear identification of their container number in 1-1/2” letters, either embossed into the containers or painted in a contrasting color. In addition, supplier-owned returnables must have the supplier’s name and return point clearly stencilled in 1-1/2” letters on the container. 5.5 Container Shortages and Overages Container, rack, and dunnage shortages must be brought to the attention of the plant responsible for the shortage and to the appropriate C.M.S. Analyst in the Corporate Material Handling Engineering Department. 5.4 A.S.N.s - Advance Shipping Notices The Associated Container field must be entered for each buyer part (BP) line item on the A.S.N. To improve data integrity, enter data for this field at the same time as each A.S.N. is created to ensure proper identification of the unique packaging actually shipped (see guidelines below for unit loads). The container number must be entered as either eight (8) or ten (10) characters in the ten character identifier field and is comprised of letters and/or numbers (i.e. 0CC00091 or 0CTA241109). Overstock conditions must be brought to the attention of the plant responsible for the over shipment. If the above issues are not resolved to a supplier’s satisfaction, or if it is unknown which plant is responsible, please contact the C.M.S. Analyst as directed on the Supplier Information Network (SPIN) or to your third party container management company’s representative. General guidelines for identifying the associated container in a unit load for input to the A.S.N. are: a) For pallet and lid combinations, the associated container is the pallet. b) For tray, pallet and lid combinations, the associated container is the tray. c) For pallet and tote combinations, the associated container is the tote. d) For containers or containers with removable dunnage, the associated container is the container. 5.6 Labels Suppliers must insure that all materials shipped to DaimlerChrysler Corporation Plants are correctly labeled and that the labels are properly attached or inserted into the holders on the racks or containers. 12 5.6.1 Destination Label and Shipping Instructions To minimize misdirection of packaged parts and materials, it is essential that the exact shipping address of the receiving plant be shown in a manner that can be easily read and understood. 5.6.1c Tags (Hang Tags) The tag size shall be the same as described immediately above, plus the material necessary to add a reinforced eyelet. (See Pages 24 and 25) 5.6.1d Label Location The label or tag shall be attached to two adjacent sides of each individual package/container (See Page 23 AIAG B-10) exceptions may apply where there is no area on the sides of the containers to apply the label. For unit load packaging that is shrink wrapped the master label and mix load labels must be applied to the outside. When individual containers are palletized and made into a unit load for mechanical handling, the master label shall be attached to two adjacent sides of the unit load. (See Pages 24 and 25) Consequently, the following shipping instructions shall apply for proper addressing of parts and material shipped or delivered to DaimlerChrysler plants by outside suppliers or by other DaimlerChrysler plants. 5.6.1a Label The label paper shall be white in color with bold, black printing. The required label size is 4 in. (102 mm) high by 6 in. (152 mm) wide or ISO size A6. All labels must meet the AIAG specifications for quality, reflectivity, and readability. Labels must be scannable from the exterior of the shipping unit (not covered by banding, cardboard, or shrink wrap. 5.6.1e Destination Label A label that identifies the receiver of a shipping pack when the package is routed through a consolidation point, shall contain the plant and dock destination code, ship date, plant address and bar code symbol of the destination location. A “Dock Specific” Destination label must be on every unitload or skid routed through a consolidation center (poolpoint/ ILC). Refer to page 27 of this manual. No mixing of plants or plant dock locations on a single skid or pallet is allowed. The character size of the “Plant Location Code” shall be 1 in. (25.4 mm) high. The character size of the “DaimlerChrysler Plant Name,” and “Street Address” shall be 0.20 in. (5.1 mm) high. The character size of the “Dock Location Code” shall be 1 in. (25.4 mm) high. 5.6.1b Bar code Labeling The bar height for the LOCATION (1L) bar code symbol shall be a minimum of 1 in. (25.4 mm) high. For all other specifications refer to the various references for BAR CODE SYMBOLOGY listed in Section 2 and specific bar code requirements in Section 4 of AIAG B-10. DaimlerChrysler’s bar code labeling requirements reside within the parameters set forth by the current Automotive Industry Action Groups (AIAG) B-10 Trading Partner Labels Manuals issued on May 9, 1995. This guideline is the standard for the automotive industry with which DaimlerChrysler expects all suppliers to adhere. Adhesive types can be pressure sensitive or dry gummed as long as adherence to the package substrate is assured and application is wrinklefree and only for use on expendable packaging. For returnable/durable packaging, use only as authorized by DaimlerChrysler Corporate Material Handling Engineering Department. 5.6.1f Label Protection Label protection against moisture, weathering, abrasion, etc., may be required in harsh environments and is encouraged wherever practical. Laminates, sprays, window envelopes, and clear plastic pouches are examples of possible protection method. Care must be taken to assure that labels meet reflectivity and contrast requirements and can be scanned with contact and non-contact devices. 5.6.1g Plant Shipping Address The plant shipping address is mandatory in the identification of packages or unit loads shipped by highway carrier to DaimlerChrysler Corporation plants by outside suppliers or by other DaimlerChrysler plants. The plant shipping address shall include the plant name, plant dock, plant location code, plant street address, city, state and zip code. 13 The supplier shall refer to their most recent material release authorization for the correct shipping and dock location address. 5.6.7 References Examples of these guidelines/labels are on pages 26-28 of this manual. Any request for clarification to the current stated format or guidelines can be addressed to: 5.6.2 Packaging and Shipping Label The packaging and shipping label is used to identify the contents in the container being shipped to the plant. It shall include the part number, part description, supplier name, supplier code, quantity, engineering level change, safety item identification, date manufactured, plant dock location, drop zone location and serial number. All part numeric identifications shall have the bar code identifier directly below them. DaimlerChrysler request that the character size for the part number on the packaging label should be 0.5 inches (12.7mm). Refer to page 28 of this manual.

The label shall be placed on the unit load in such a manner that when the pack is broken apart the label is discarded (e.g., attach to outside of stretch wrap). For further information see AIAG B-10 pages 18 and 23. 5.7 Cleaning, Damage & Repair of Containers It is the suppliers responsibility to ensure that all returnable containers are free of debris that would impact the quality of the material being packaged prior to loading with DaimlerChrysler parts. It is the supplier’s responsibility to inspect all racks and containers prior to loading to ensure that damaged equipment which could cause damage to parts or injury to handlers/operators is segregated and removed from the system for subsequent repair or scrap disposition by DaimlerChrysler Material Handling Engineering personnel or their representative(s). As damaged equipment is so segregated, it should be collapsed, folded down (where applicable) and clearly marked as “Damaged”. At this point suppliers should call their C.M.S. Analyst who will advise what procedure to follow at that point and/or what transportation arrangements to make if equipment is to be forwarded to a DaimlerChrysler plant or directly to a repair source. 5.6.4 Mixed Item Loads A Mixed Load Label shall be used to identify a load of multiple single packs of different part numbers, see page 26 of this manual. For further information see AIAG B-10 pages 18 and 23. Note: Mix loads are required to have a Master Label of each individual part applied to the shipments. The label shall be placed on the unit load in such a manor that when the pack is broken apart the label is discarded (e.g., attach to outside of stretch wrap or affix to the banding). 5.6.5 Cardholder Label Plate Containers equipped with cardholder label plate require a minimum of an 8 pt. card stock label. At DaimlerChrysler plants, Production Control personnel should make arrangements with Corporate Material Handling Engineering managers/analysts to conduct or arrange for on-site inspection and disposition (repair or scrap) of this damaged equipment when sufficient quantities accumulate to cost justify such arrangements. 5.6.6 Removal of Old Labels Assuring that the removal of old labels prior to shipping has been completed remains the responsibility of the supplier, this includes standard container returns that are managed by third party container management facilities. 14 returnable dunnage, preconcepts, prototypes and prototype reviews are not required. 5.8 Implementation to Returnable/Expendable Programs Several economic factors influence the selection of a returnable container program: complexity, materials, quality, labor, freight, cleaning, disposal, and tooling costs. Once a part is selected for returnables, a package must be designed and implemented. Step 4. Testing/Test Packs Once a prototype has been approved testing for all returnable programs is required to be performed by our design source or by test shipment to the receiving location. Full package quantities must be released for this purpose, once testing is completed parts will be returned if requested. Test shipments to a receiving location must be clearly identified with an 8-1/2” (216mm) X 11” (280mm) sign stating “Test Pack”, “Hold in Receiving Area”, “Notify contact name” and “Phone contact number” (See Page 33 for form), Note: Any changes to existing returnables must also be tested. There are six steps to the successful implementation of a returnable program all of which require the participation and cooperation of our suppliers. Step 1. Pre-concept Meeting The pre-concept meeting is a pre-design meeting to discuss packaging alternatives, packaging materials, particular part characteristics, load/unload scenarios, and timing. Suppliers must send a sample part or math data to the latest change level. A supplier representative qualified to address their concerns, must be available in person, or for a conference call. Step 5. Allocations Normally DaimlerChrysler Corporation provides an agreed upon quantity of returnables to cover published transit times, in-plant floats and operational reserves. Variations to this allocation must be approved by your appropriate Corporate Material Handling Engineering Manager. CMHE and Logistics will work with the suppliers to identify ship bank requirements. Quantities will be sufficient to cover needs. Step 1a. Pre-concept Meeting (International Only) If the vehicle line will be manufactured overseas, International packaging requirements must be discussed. The determination must be made first, is it a Free Flow Country or CKD Country. If Free Flow, it is possible the domestic back up (or expendable packaging) may be adequate for International shipments. If a CKD country, it is the suppliers responsibility to submit samples and costs associated with packing parts in lots of 36 or box quantities of 2,3,4,6,9,12,18, or 36 pieces. Step 6. New part number unit load data information is loaded directly on-line into the C.R.A.T.E.S. database by the TIER 1 suppliers. Unit load information for any currently released part that is on the C.R.A.T.E.S. add list is updated by the CMHE Engineers. Step 2. Prototype Suppliers must loan or release a minimum of three sample parts to our design source for design of a prototype package. If required, parts will be returned upon the successful completion and approval of the prototype package. 5.9 Combination Returnable and Recyclable Complexity and economics have forced a new program into use for DaimlerChrysler, returnable containers with recyclable dunnage. Parts not meeting the economic criteria for total returnable systems can still be containerized with the supplier’s cooperation. In this program, DaimlerChrysler supplies the container, the supplier is responsible for the design, testing, and replacement of the interior dunnage. Cost attributable to the dunnage is included in the purchase order for recovery by the supplier on a piece price basis. All cardboard must be non-coated for recyclability. Step 3. Prototype Review Once a prototype package is produced a review is scheduled with all parties concerned to assess the package’s conformance to requirements as set at the preconcept meeting, establish ship bank quantities, and sign off on the completed design. Suppliers must send a qualified representative to this meeting. If a supplier is unable to send a representative, prototype reviews can be held at the suppliers location. Note: For parts not requiring a special design or specialized 15 Once contacted by our design source for this program, the core team chooses a DaimlerChrysler Corporation standard container from the description in this manual and designs and provides a prototype of the recyclable interior dunnage. A prototype review is held and test shipments performed, and containers are allocated to the supplier. Repurchase Suppliers wishing to purchase quantities of their recyclable dunnage back from DaimlerChrysler may contact our plant recycling teams. 5.10 Types and Descriptions DaimlerChrysler has a wide variety of returnable racks and containers in use, both metal and plastic. 5.10.1 Racks All of our CL and Low Profile racks are of tubular steel construction and are specifically designed to hold a particular part. All bear an identifying part number and description. Ergonomic devices are incorporated into the rack, such as swing arm dunnage bars and hands clear locking mechanisms. 5.10.2 Standard Containers A wide variety of standard containers are available: metal and plastic, collapsible, non-collapsible, and nestable. Plastic containers larger than 4 cu. ft. (2500 cu. mm) have a maximum weight capacity of 2500 lbs. (1136 kg); collapsible metal containers have a maximum weight capacity of 4000 lbs. (1800 kg); non-collapsibles cannot exceed 6000 lbs. (2700 kg). Examples of the more common containers of each type available are shown on the following pages with a listing of exterior sizes, in inches, L x W x H, and tare weights, in pounds.

When optimum packaging for a product has been determined, facility constraints, volume, density, and ship frequency are factored to develop a shipping mode. Each supplier of production parts and materials must have Supplier Routing Instructions from DaimlerChrysler Corporate Logistics listing your “Primary Carrier”. engines, transmissions, and other dense commodities. Eighty-six foot cars are used for stampings and miscellaneous commodities. “Primary Carrier (P1)” is the DaimlerChrysler preferred carrier. Use of a carrier other than the Primary carrier must be approved by DaimlerChrysler Corporate Logistics. Routing instructions will include information regarding supplier routing for premium shipments, such as next day air or ground expedite. Consist Car a. Shipment authorized and developed in conjunction with receiving activity b. Boxcars are in assigned service at origin plant c. Material is shipped in uniform quantities in a repetitive manner throughout the model year d. Loading patterns and/or dunnage arrangements are pre-engineered e. Special returnable dunnage or equipment may be required to contain and/or protect material. Rail shipments utilize either ‘consist’ or ‘common’ boxcars. Characteristics of each are as follows: Note: On all cars void spaces must be minimized. Spaces in cars greater than five inches must be braced by wood or bulkheads to avoid damage in transit. The “Expedite” mode of shipping is utilized when unforeseen circumstances have necessitated deviation from the Primary carrier and/or a different mode of transportation and appropriate packaging will be required. This deviation must be approved by and be coordinated with Group Production Control; the emergency method specified will govern the type of packaging to be employed. Common Car a. Material is not loaded in set quantities b. Boxcars are not assigned to a specific activity. 6.2 Truckload Direct Carrier (M) Truckload shipments are highly desirable because of pick-up and delivery flexibility, and relatively short travel time between shipping and destination points. DaimlerChrysler’s standard truckload trailer is 53 foot long, 102 inches wide and 110 inches tall. 6.1 Primary Modes DaimlerChrysler Corporation’s primary modes of shipping are by Railroad Car, Truckload Direct Carrier, Intermodal, Truckload “Geographic Shipping/Receiving”, Scheduled Delivery Programs, Dedicated Logistics Centers, Common Carrier Less Than Truckload, Supplier Delivery/Private Carrier, and Parcel Delivery. Note: On all truckload shipments dead spaces must be minimized. Spaces in truckloads greater than three inches must be braced by wood or bulkheads to avoid shifting and damage during transit. 6.1.1 Railroad Boxcar (R) Railroad Boxcars are a carload shipment to a single destination. Rail transportation tends to be more economical when large volumes of material are shipped, when racks sizes exceed standard over-theroad trailer dimensions, or long distances exist between origin and destination. 6.2.1 Intermodal (X,RR) Material is shipped between two points by a road and rail combination. Intermodal routings can be a trailer on flat car, a roadrailer, or a stack container. Note: On all intermodal shipments dead spaces must be minimized. Spaces greater than three inches must be braced by wood or bulkheads to avoid shifting and damage during transit. Standard boxcar dimensions are 50’, 60’ and 86’ in length. Fifty foot cars have been phased out of most rail fleets. Sixty foot cars are used primarily for 21 The responsibility for correctly packaging, identifying and addressing parts and materials remains with the supplier. 6.2.2 Truckload Geographic Shipping/Receiving (GS/GR) Shipments containing two or more supplier on one truck/shipment containing supplies for two or more plants. 6.5 Packing Slips and Bills of Lading Packing slips and bills of lading, whether direct shipments or shipments moving through a consolidation point, must be submitted with every shipment. 6.2.3 Scheduled Delivery Program (GG) Less than truckload shipments are picked up for a specific DaimlerChrysler destination, with a dedicated carrier, based on a Just In Time schedule. A BOL represents an agreement between the supplier and carrier that the freight pallet quantity is correct and that the material is damaged free for pickup. A signed BOL represents the carrier’s liability for pallet quantity and that the material was in good shipping condition when they picked it up. Where as the supplier is liable that the individual part quantity is correct and the material is in good shipping condition. The supplier is responsible for the seals and to note it on the BOL. If a seal is broke arrival at the plant, the carrier is responsible for any missing pallet material. If the seal is intact at the plant, the supplier is responsible for content of the trailer. If the carrier is not allowed on the suppliers dock, the carrier is to mark on all of the BOLs Shipper Load & Count (SL&C), therefore the supplier is responsible for the entire load (shortage and damage due to staging the material). The supplier is responsible to properly secure all material on the trailer. 6.2.4 Dedicated Logistics Centers (GG) Less than truckload shipments are picked up for multiple DaimlerChrysler destinations, with a dedicated carrier, into a cross-dock, based on a Just In Time schedule. 6.2.5 Common Carrier LTL (LT) LTL (less than truckload) direct with a common carrier is utilized in certain circumstances when it has been deemed the most efficient means of transport due usually to geographic location of ship point. 6.2.6 Supplier Delivery/Private Carrier (PC) In some instances suppliers provide regular parts delivery service to DaimlerChrysler plants on their own trucks, leased trucks or contract carriers. Return loads of materials, containers, pallets, etc., can make such moves even more beneficial to both parties. 6.5.1 Direct Shipments Direct shipments move directly from a shipping plant to a destination plant. Packing slips must be prepared in duplicate. One copy of the packing slip is to be firmly attached to the outside of one of the containers in the shipment. The second copy of the packing slip should be tendered to the carrier along with two copies of the bill of lading. 6.3 Parcel Delivery (PD) All shipments weighing 70 pounds or less should be routed via United Parcel Service, unless otherwise stated on routing instructions or by DaimlerChrysler Production Control. 6.4 Emergency Methods (E, AE, AC) DaimlerChrysler Corporations’ emergency methods of shipping are via Expedited truck, “full” truckload, air express, and air charter. All emergency shipments must have prior approval of the Production Control Releasing Activity. The shipper must receive an AETC, (Authorization Excess Transportation Charge) number which is to be included on the bill of lading. The fact that emergency routings are specified dictate that parts must be received promptly and damage free. 22 6.5.2 Shipments Moving Through a Consolidation Point Part or Material Information Shipments moving through a consolidation point are partial loads that are consigned through a consolidation point for delivery to the destination plant. Packing slips must be prepared in sets of four. One copy of the packing slip should be firmly attached to the outside of one of the containers in the shipment. The other three copies of the packing slip should be tendered to the carrier along with two copies of the bill of lading. The bill of lading should indicate that the packing slips are to be delivered to the consolidator at the time of delivery of the material. 3. Unit of measure - if other than pieces per unit load. 4. Number of measure - Supplier Returnable Containers - supplier owned returnable containers such as wood or metal bins, boxes, racks, pallets, trays, separators and or loose components on which there are deposit charges must be identified in compliance with Section 4.0. 5.
