Container Pattern
A pattern defines a collection of positions. For example, a box with predefined
locations for certain objects. You can change the order, delete, or rearrange the
selected layers using the available options. You can adjust the vertical position of
each layer by modifying the Offset (mm). You can also manage the sorting method.
The Sorting Method section defines the order in which the items in the container
pattern shall be handled by the robots.
