A tool, for depalletizing mixed pallet load article units, includes: a frame; a first grip assembly interfacing and engaging with a surface of a pallet load article unit, where the first grip assembly is movable, relative to the frame, in a first direction between gripping and ungripping positions; a second grip assembly, movably connected to the frame, and has at least a grip contact point oriented to interface with and generate a grip force, on another surface of the pallet load article unit, in a direction angled to the first direction, the second grip assembly being configured so as to effect, in combination with the first grip assembly, stable hold and pose of the pallet load article unit in a predetermined position; and an article unit seat member, is movably mounted to the frame, and disposed in opposition to at least one of the first and the second grip assembly.
