Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2236424A1] The process involves controlling the delivery of a next container (3) to be filled into the transposition area of the picker line by any picker (4a-4c). The picker which controls the delivery of the next container to be filled is determined by the number of products (2) currently introduced at the infeed of the picker line. The next container to be filled is delivered to transposition area, and the container in the foremost position is discharged when the picker that is currently controlling the delivery of the next container to be filled has reached the nominal filling level. An independent claim is included for a picker line apparatus.
