Abstract

System and method for unloading a container of its content, comprising an automated storage and retrieval system, wherein the system comprises a rail system comprising a first set of parallel rails arranged to guide movement of a container handling vehicle in a first direction (X) across the top of a framework structure, and a second set of parallel rails arranged perpendicular to the first set of rails to guide movement of the container handling vehicle in a second direction (Y) which is perpendicular to the first direction (X), the first and second sets of parallel rails dividing the rail system into a plurality of grid cells, the framework structure comprises upright members and horizontal members, at least one container handling vehicle configured to operate on the rail system, wherein the at least one container handling vehicle is provided with at least one orientation sensor configured to measure at least one orientation parameter of the sensor in a three-dimensional cartesian reference system, a central control unit configured to receive, transmit and process data signals of the container handling vehicle and to receive and process data signals of the sensor, at least one container comprised of four side walls and a bottom creating an open box structure, means for transporting the container to an unloading station where the content of the container is emptied by gravity wherein the unloading station comprises a container tipping device that tips the container around at least one axis, emptying the content.
