Summary

The topic of this article is the Multi Pick functionality in Pally. In short what the functionality does, when, why and how it should be applicated.

...

While Pally accommodates Multi Pick, the system HW must be engineered to do so. That being said, most palletizers running on Pally can Multi Pick. How many cases in each pick is dependending depending on:

• Product Sensors: One sensor is needed per unit to pick.

• Payload: The gripper must be strong enough to grip the product, and the robot strong enough to carry it.

• Size: The gripper must be able to get a firm grip on all of the units in each pick.

Pallet Pattern Setup for Multi Pick

When creating a new pattern you can choose max multigrip, or you can choose to set it to auto.

If you choose auto Pally will calculate how many boxes it picks up at each cycle.

If you set it to a number that limits Pally to maximum pick that particular number of items in each cycle.

Please do remember that it is recommended to set “Box padding” to 0 if “Max grip” is set higher than 1.
