Continuous growth of

transported packaged goods

In Europe, 64% of goods are

suitable for automatic cargo

handling due to their size,

shape and weight *

Goods can be separated in

cubical-, cylindrical-, and sack-

shaped

Manual loading/unloading

of containers is still the most

popular solution in logistics

State of the art in cargo handling

*[Akbiyik, H., Kirchheim, A., Echelmeyer, W. (2009) Latest Trends in the Container Market. Bremer Value Report, Vol. 3. Bremen (Germany)]

Full automatic material handling processes

Robotic system requires

material handling information

in order to improve the

cognition capabilities:

size

weight

hardness

position

orientation

condition

Computing of ideal gripping

positions is very tricky, for

Ubiquitous material handling

information should contain

gripping positions defined by

sender

Challenges in the future

Development of integrated demonstrator with application

of all SmartGate technologies

Development of methods for deriving handling information

from the measured material properties

Combination of SmartGate technology and parcel robot in

order to realize full automation potential

Summary and Outlook

Continuous growth of transported packaged goods

Ubiquitous material handling information can help to realize

automation of logistic process

Different SmartGate technologies exist in order to gather

properties of transport materials and their handling options
