METHOD AND DEVICE FOR AUTOMATED PALLETIZING OF PACKAGES TO FORM STABLE STACKS

摘要

A method for the automatic palletizing of stable package stacks includes the steps of virtual generation of multiple follow-up configurations by adding packages to at least one initial configuration, assessment of these follow-up configurations, and pursuit of follow-up configurations that are assessed as good as initial configurations. These steps are repeated until a termination criterion is satisfied. The follow-up configurations are assessed on the basis of different partial stack heights, towers and/or overbuildings. Another version of the method includes the steps of virtual generation of a package stack, and determination of a characteristic stability value of a package of a layer of a virtual package stack on the basis of the characteristic stability value of packages on which the package rests.
