RE: Packing optimization
Can you elaborate more on your requirement?
Optimization of packaging can be done (depending on your requirement) using NX KBE tools. Please refer to the video link below.

RE: Packing optimization
We produce different components, like pipes, connectors for them, lot of aluminium profiles that are used to hang these pipes etc... so it is bunch of different size and different shaped objects. And so far all packing design was done by manually moving components around to fit as many as possible in wooden boxes (just a box feature in NX, and we are trying to squeeze as many components inside but in a way so all components are fixed inside the box, with "floors" and bulkheads). Is there a module or any kind of automation for positioning components in boxes, packing optimization, so it calculate positions and save work hours for manual planing of packages?
