Study on manual palletization of inhomogeneous boxes with the help of different interfaces to assess specific factors of ergonomic impact

Abstract

The pursued project concerns the general topic of optimizing the packaging of pallets. To be more precise, it analyzes the execution of the work task of palletizing from the point of view of the user. Thus, the project seeks to provide a guidance for an ergonomic task execution for the worker as well as to ensure an economical pallet-packaging pattern concerning the work task of packing a pallet

Smart Packaging in Intralogistics: An Evaluation Study of Human-Technology Interaction in Applying New Collaboration Technologies

“…Since AR can demonstrably create interactive learning environments, the application is targeted in the logistics context to support intralogistic work processes. In the course of this, several studies in logistics research have already been carried out to investigate the general suitability of AR for packaging [9,10,11]. Study results show that an AR device is well suited to support operational logistics staff in palletizing, even if usability could still be improved [11].…”
