Abstract

A vessel handling system, comprising a vessel (1) having a wall (2) forming a hollow body portion (2a) to receive a flowable medium and having a neck portion (2b) with an opening (3) configured for the flowable medium to be filled into the hollow body and to be dispensed out of the vessel (2); a holding part (4) having attachment means (4a) configured for mounting the holding part (4) to the vessel (1) and having circumferential engagement means (4b) with an outer contour configured to protrude from the wall (2) of the vessel (1) when the holding part (4) is mounted on the vessel (1), the circumferential engagement means (4b) comprising at least one lower surface (5); and a gripper (7) having a fixture (7a) configured for mounting the gripper (7) at a tool flange (9) of a robotic device (10), the gripper (7) further having a receptacle (7b) with at least one upper surface (11), the receptacle (7b) is configured to accommodate the circumferential engagement means (4b) of the holding part (4), when the gripper (7) is carrying the holding part (4) together with the vessel (1) while the lower surface (5) of the circumferential engagement means (4b) of the holding part (4) being supported by the upper surface (11) of the receptacle (7b) of the gripper (7). A method of handling such vessels (1) by a gripper (7) controlled by a robotic device (10) is also disclosed.
