Abstract
The present invention relates to a gripper for a picking device for storing piece goods, and to a method for operating a picking device with a gripper according to the invention. To optimise storage, the gripper comprises a storage table (10) extending in a first horizontal direction and a second horizontal direction orthogonal to the first horizontal direction, a transport device (30) arranged above the storage table (10) and movable in the first horizontal direction for moving piece goods onto the storage table (10) of the gripper and at least one weighing device (100, 200, 300) for determining the weight of at least one piece good arranged on the gripper (1). In the method according to the invention, the gripper is moved to a target position of a storage device (420, 430), at least one piece good is moved onto the storage table (10) by a transport device (30) of the gripper (1), and an actual weight of the at least one piece good moved onto the storage table (10) is determined using the at least one weighing device (100, 200, 300) and transmitted to the control device (370).
