Embodiments provide for systems and methods related to kiosks for personalizing a packaged article. The kiosks may also be used for storage, inventory management, retrieval, packaging, and/or personalization of packaged articles. The kiosks discussed herein differ from non-kiosk personalization systems, such as personalization systems installed on a factory or warehouse floor, in that the kiosks are self-contained personalization systems. In some embodiments, the kiosks are portable and can be moved between different sites or events. This portability allows the kiosks to personalize packaged articles for concerts, festivals, conventions, trade shows, and the like.

The present disclosure relates to a palletizing control device, system, method and storage medium, and relates to the technical field of logistics. A palletizing control device includes: a prestage position generation module configured to generate a prestage position of an article to be palletized by respectively shifting a placement position of the article to be palletized along a horizontal palletizing direction by a horizontal offset corresponding to the article to be palletized and along a vertical palletizing direction by a vertical offset corresponding to the article to be palletized; and a path generation module configured to generate movement path information representing a straight path from the prestage position of the article to be palletized to the placement position of the article to be palletized.

Some embodiments are directed to a system and method for interfacing between conveyors. The system utilizes at least one detachment system to detach a batch of objects from a respective at least one serial feed conveyor, and at least one loading tray to receive a batch of the objects from a respective at least one detachment system, move towards a movable support assembly and discharge the batch of objects thereby carried onto a respective array of grippers of said movable support assembly.

An article conveying system includes a tray that is disposed on a floor surface and on which an article to be conveyed is mounted, a robot provided with a force sensor that detects an external force, a frictional force reduction device provided in at least one of the floor surface or the tray, to adjust a frictional force between the floor surface and the tray, and a controller that controls the robot to apply a lateral load to the tray and thereby slide the tray on the floor surface, and controls the frictional force reduction device based on a magnitude of the external force in a direction of the lateral load that is detected by the force sensor when the lateral load is applied.

A method and apparatus for delivering workpieces to and from a machine table. This invention also relates to an apparatus for receiving at the machine table workpieces which are delivered to and retrieved by the delivery system. Carts move with respect to a surface, such as a floor surface. The carts move and deliver pallets to a loading station that uses a loading arm to deliver pallets with workpieces to and from a machine table.

In a transporting system, a first conveyor includes a transport surface to transport different size tires in a first direction. A first positioner positions an end of a tire transported by the first conveyor, at a first predetermined position in the first direction. A second positioner positions an end of the tire at a second predetermined position in a second direction horizontally perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The first and second clamping portion portions are at or adjacent to a clamping position, and pass through between a tire first portion at or adjacent to an end of the tire positioned by the first positioner and a tire second portion at or adjacent to an end of the tire positioned by the second positioner to clamp side surfaces of the tire.

Disclosed is a fitment holder that includes a base, a hub extending from the base, and a fitment positioning structure comprising a plurality of pins. The plurality of pins may be configured to engage a wing of the fitment and the plurality of pins may include a plurality of heads residing in a plurality of countersunk areas formed in the base. The plurality of pins may also include a plurality of ends extending from a top surface of the base.

A sampling apparatus is provided, which includes a pressing-up unit configured to press up a sheet piece that is being conveyed by a conveying unit, from a lower side of a conveyance course of the sheet piece to above the conveyance course; and a holding unit configured to hold the sheet piece pressed up by the pressing-up unit.

An apparatus for unscrambling articles, in particular containers fed randomly to an inlet of the apparatus, includes a transport system for transporting the articles fed to the inlet, devices for picking and releasing the articles configured to pick up the articles arranged randomly on the transport system and release them to an extraction system with a predefined orientation and/or position, a detection system designed to detect the position and the arrangement of the articles in transit on the transport system and to provide the information for controlling the pick and release devices, and a unit for processing and controlling the components and the drives of the apparatus. The extraction system includes a plane for supporting the containers being extracted and means for extracting the articles, designed to pick up the articles released by the pick and release devices and transport them on the plane towards the outlet of the apparatus.
