    摘要: Data associated with a plurality of items to be stacked on or in a destination location is received. The data associated with the plurality of items enables a first attribute associated with a first item of the plurality of items to be identified. A plan to stack the items on or in the destination location is generated based at least in part on the received data. The plan includes with respect to the first item a plan, determined based at least in part on the first attribute, to place the first item in a stackable container along with one or more other items and to place the stackable container, once filled, in a corresponding location on or in the destination location. The plan is implemented at least in part by controlling a robotic arm to pick up the items and stack them on or in the destination location according to the plan.

    摘要: A selectably configurable modular labware transport system including a labware bulk overhead transport system module forming an overhead transport path. The labware bulk overhead transport system module has a labware support, with at least a movable part of the labware support being configured to support labware thereon, and move longitudinally defining the overhead transport path. The labware support has more than one labware holding stations for holding a labware piece, each of the labware holding stations having a different location along the labware support and overhead transport path. The labware bulk overhead transport system module is communicably couplable to another labware bulk overhead transport system module that forms another different overhead transport path, and effects undisrupted transport of the labware throughout the overhead transport path with the labware bulk overhead transport system module both coupled to and uncoupled from the other labware bulk overhead transport system module.

    摘要: Techniques are disclosed to use a robotic arm to palletize or depalletize diverse items. In various embodiments, data associated with a plurality of items to be stacked on or in a destination location is received. A plan to stack the items on or in the destination location is generated based at least in part on the received data. The plan is implemented at least in part by controlling a robotic arm of the robot to pick up the items and stack them on or in the receptacle according to the plan, including by for each item: using one or more first order sensors to move the item to a first approximation of a destination position for that item at the destination location; and using one or more second order sensors to snug the item into a final position.

    摘要: A method for operating a gripper includes determining a first transport attachment of a plurality of transport attachments to use for moving a piece good and determining whether the first transport attachment is fixed in a first gripping jaw of the gripper, wherein the gripper includes a drop table having at least one storage and dispensing end face; the first gripping jaw and a second gripping jaw each arranged above the drop table and fastened to a gripping jaw guide arrangement, wherein the first gripping jaw has a gripper coupler at an end portion opposite the gripping jaw guide arrangement; and a transport attachment of the plurality of transport attachments with an attachment coupler, wherein the gripper coupler and the attachment coupler interact with one another so that the transport attachment is releasably fixed at the end portion of the first gripping jaw. Grippers and transport systems are also provided.

    摘要: An unloader includes a suction device including a suction portion, a mover, a controller, and an article detector. The controller moves the suction portion relative to a mount in a first predetermined direction to switch from a state in which a vertical relative distance is greater than a greater one of an article height or a predetermined distance and is less than a total length of the article height and the predetermined distance and in which a detection line is located in a second predetermined direction from a target article group to a state in which the detection line is located in the first predetermined direction from the target article group, and prohibits an operation to move the suction portion in a vertical direction toward the target article group when the article detector detects an article.
