Topology represention and analysis of carton manipulation

摘要

This paper presents models for description and identification of various cartons in their discrete states, and proposes a new approach to describe the transformation of configuration states during carton manipulation in a packaging process. The method makes use of matrix operations which can be used to identify and model the steps and changes in carton manipulation at different stages of a packaging process. This gives an analytical way of presenting and identifying information of a carton and of modeling carton packaging manipulation and presents a new way for carton packaging automation.
