Method for material handling, materials handling cell and electric motor therefor

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for materials handling via a number of materials handling cells (C1, C2, C3, C4) by passing on materials handling containers (Cont), in which each materials handling cell (C1, C2, C3, C4) includes a first electric motor and a first control unit, in which each materials handling container (Cont) is assigned at least one data element including at least information about the way or the destination of the materials handling container (Cont), that the data element is passed on to the next materials handling cell (C1, C2, C3, C4) and stored there in the control unit, when the materials handling container (Cont) is passed on there, and that the evaluation of the data element and the control of its passing on is performed in the first control unit contained in the first electric motor, as well as to a materials handling cell and an electric motor therefor.
