System and method are provided where parcels or packages are associated or grouped, into logical group or logical containerization of parcels or packages, without need for physical container, such that parcels or packages can be tracked as a group, for example with a unique group ID. Logical group may be tracked within specified logical zone on conveyor, transported, sorted and/or otherwise processed as unique logical group without need to be contained in physical container. System and method for automated sortation can accumulate set number or set volume of packages, and then process the accumulated set number or volume of packages.

The present invention relates to a parcel sorting system which is operated using two separate tracks so as to distinguish between concentrated population areas and other areas, and feed and sort only parcels destined for a corresponding area, whereby parcel sorting can be efficiently performed, and the system can be efficiently constructed while occupying a small area.

A system to deliver a cargo using a railway, such as a subway or a national railway, rather than ground transportation. A cargo loading/unloading unit is provided on a platform of a railway station. The cargo loading/unloading unit is configured to load and unload cargoes is provided inside a railway vehicle, such that a large quantity of cargo can be quickly loaded and unloaded while the railway vehicle is stopped at the station. The cargo delivery capacity can also be adjusted, thereby enabling a large quantity of the cargo to be delivered more quickly and conveniently.

The baggage handling and delivery system provides a plurality of secure pickup stations for individual passengers to receiver their baggage. A plurality of interconnected conveyer belts are used to create a variety of different routes for baggage to follow, with each individual route terminating at a pickup station. Each baggage item is provided with an identifier, such as a bar code, a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag or the like, such that each item of baggage associated with an individual passenger is routed to the specific pickup station assigned to that passenger. Under guidance of a connected controller, each item of baggage entering the baggage handling and delivery system is scanned and routed along a specific path to be received by the appropriate pickup station. Each pickup station is secure and accessible only to the assigned passenger.

An object processing system is disclosed that includes a plurality of track sections, and a plurality of remotely actuatable carriers for controlled movement along at least portions of the plurality of track sections, wherein each of the remotely controllable carriers is adapted to support and transport an object processing bin.

A method and an apparatus are provided for distributing glass substrates. The method includes: utilizing a first robot arm to pick up a first substrate and put the first substrate on a first conveyor belt; utilizing a second robot arm to pick up the first substrate and put the first substrate on a second production line; utilizing a third robot arm to pick up a second substrate and put the second substrate on a second conveyor belt; utilizing a fourth robot arm to pick up the second substrate and put the second substrate on a first production line. The first production line and the second production line are positioned side by side, and the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt are positioned between the first production line and the second production line. The method simplifies distribution and raises the efficiency.
