PHOTONIC BOX OPENING SYSTEM

摘要

The following simplified summary is provided in order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the claimed subject matter. Its purpose is to present some concepts in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later. In certain embodiments a system for opening packages is provided comprising a conveyer for supporting or conveying a package, wherein the package comprises a surface material and a measurement zone wherein the package is inspected and measured for a cutting operation to thereby determine a process location comprising a location on the package for introduction of a cut to the surface material.

主权项

1. A system for opening packages, comprising:
a conveyer for supporting or conveying a package, wherein the package comprises a surface material; a measurement zone wherein the package is inspected and measured for a cutting operation to thereby determine a process location comprising a location on the package for introduction of a cut to the surface material; and a cutting zone comprising a photonic energy beam source, wherein the photonic energy beam source emits an energy beam directed at the process location, and wherein the energy beam contacts and cuts the surface material in the process location.
