A method for automatically handling a plurality of product containers includes the steps of: providing a container exchange apparatus having at least one platform for temporarily hosting containers to be transferred; moving the at least one platform along a conveyor device and a shelving unit; and driving shifting means for exchanging containers from the conveyor device to the shelving unit, and vice-versa, via the at least one platform.

Method for automatically handling a plurality of product containers, and a related system

A method is disclosed for varying a spatial arrangement of randomly arranged, stacked or piled products, particularly to rearrange the products in a way that makes automated handling thereof possible. The method relies on a plurality of subsequent conveyors extending between a product input and a product output, wherein at least one of a conveyor speed a conveyor direction and a conveyor height of a conveyor of the plurality is offset from, respectively, the conveyor speed the conveyor direction, and the conveyor height of a subsequent conveyor in the plurality.

Method for varying the spatial arrangement of products

Disclosed herein is a robotic product unscrambler apparatus which is capable of operating with ultra high efficiency and with minimum environmental impact. Efficiency and energy saving are achieved thanks to the possibility of processing products regardless of their preliminary orientation, so to remit sorting of the products to a subsequent unscrambling device of the product unscrambler. This results in the substantial absence of non-processed products due to preliminary orientation reasons, and accordingly very little—if at all—energy input to recirculate non processed products.

Robotic unscrambler

A method and system for automatically forming and handling compound pallet units including a pallet and a plurality of products stacked on the pallet. The method includes the steps of providing a conveyor device, at least one loading area provided for automatically receiving empty pallets and temporarily hosting compound pallet units to be transferred to a main conveyor, and at least one manipulator robot configured for picking selected products and placing the products on a pallet stationing at said loading station.
