A robot system includes a robot having a gripping unit for gripping goods and a sensor system for detecting a loading space of a loading aid and the goods stored therein. After the gripping of a good, a check is conducted using a controller on whether a good protrudes beyond the loading space. If necessary, the good protruding beyond the loading space is gripped and placed at a different position, or the part of the good protruding beyond the loading space is moved into the loading space. Moreover, a method operates the robot system.

Robot system for testing a loading space of a loading aid in a storage and order-picking system and operating method therefor

In a method for order-picking articles from source loading aids into or onto target loading aids in a storage and order-picking system, the articles belong to a first group of types of article, whose types of article can be handled automatically, or a second group of types of article, whose types of article can be handled manually. A first order part with articles of the first group of types of article is transported to a first automatic order-picking station and order-picked there, and a second order part with articles of the second group of types of article is transported to a first manual order-picking station and order-picked there. Further, a storage and order-picking system executes the method.

Storage and picking system and picking method for automatically and manually picking goods

A robot system includes a robot having a gripping unit for picking and placing down/throwing goods, wherein the goods are differentiated into multiple types with respect to their dimensional stability, compressive stability, flexural rigidity, strength, their absolute weight and/or specific weight. When the goods are manipulated, the robot and/or the gripping unit are controlled depending on the type determined for the goods. Moreover, a method operates the robot system.
