AMR handoffs at a packaging line
VDA 5050 version 3.0.0 is the fleet-to-robot interface. It does not define the packaging machine's signals or replace a safety standard.
#handoff
Data to name at case and pallet handoffs
Case packing and palletizing need a complete signal, an identity for the case or pallet, and a blocked state. This page does not choose the machine.
Line buffers and packaging handoffs
A machine's rated speed is not the line's rate. Buffers and handoff signals decide whether the next station can take the pack.
