Verfahren und Vorrichtung zum Palletisieren von Packstücken mit beliebigen Abmessungen und beliebigem Gewicht

摘要

A method and apparatus for palletizing rectangular packages (P) received in random size and weight. A "corner"-based modeling system is used to assist in evaluating possible placements of packages accumulated on a line conveyor (16), and a placement evaluation process is used to select a "best" package placement based on heuristic analysis. Statistically-based measurement and comparison is used to assist in the evaluation process.
