Re: Getting the Totes Right Side Up from the Chute Door
Our team has a method that I haven't seen many others use in the form of a conveyor belt through the middle of our robot. We load totes into the back of the robot and they slide out to the front where our stacking mechanism is located. We also have two rails that actuate in and out (one on each side of the tote) to re-align the tote if we didn't back up to the chute perfectly square.
