Our plan for arranging shipping cartons in pallet layers with Fairino FR5 in a carton palletising project has a very neat alternating layer drawing. But a labelled dispatch carton has a preferred support direction, and some rotated cartons sit over gaps. I want packaging support and tool access reviewed together before I accept the pattern.
Where should I start?
@RaviBrooks0824 Start by showing the carton edges that carry load and the pallet deck support on the layer drawings. Is the complete gripper outline available to overlay as well?
@EllaChen1164 We've only got top-view rectangles and a tool centre mark. The carton note specifies support direction, but the layer drawing doesn't show it.
@RaviBrooks0824 Give packaging and the integrator a drawing combining those details. A repeated unrotated layer is worth assessing alongside the alternating one because it may better suit the specified support direction.
@HassanBarnes0530 Agreed; I meant a comparison option. Packaging must assess both arrangements with the specified cartons and contents, including support and stability.
@OliverAbbott0015 That rule is too broad because changing the pattern changes the load paths. The packaging reviewer needs the carton construction and support geometry to assess the result.
@EllaChen1164 The layer overlay shows carton edges above gaps below. That gives me something specific to mark for packaging instead of saying the pattern feels wrong.
I can show the pattern questions more clearly, but I can't yet say support and access both work. I'll keep the pattern decision open for the combined review.
