Parcel sorting
Overview
In parcel sorting operations, 3D cameras utilise three-dimensional vision technology to enhance automated sorting processes. For neatly arranged parcels, the cameras can rapidly identify the dimensions and orientation of each package, enabling high-speed, precise sorting;
For parcels stacked in a disorderly manner, the cameras use point cloud data to accurately reconstruct the spatial shape and orientation of the parcels, guiding robots to avoid collisions and perform precise grasping, thereby facilitating the efficient completion of automated sorting operations.
Application Pain Points
-
Packaging materials vary widely; soft packaging and cardboard boxes exhibit significant interference from reflections and creases -
The parcels are piled up haphazardly, obscuring one another, and are arranged in a random and ever-changing manner -
The lighting conditions on site are complex and there is a significant amount of dust, which can lead to unreliable recognition
Advantage Description
-
Comprehensively capture the parcel’s 3D data to achieve precise dimensioning and orientation
-
Intelligently identifies the orientation of parcels to guide the equipment in efficient sorting and picking
-
Resistant to stray light and dust in the workplace, suitable for stable operation in logistics environments
