A palletizing method for palletizing objects into batches on pallets, which method comprises a step of acquiring identification and morphology data identifying and indicating the morphologies of the objects to be palletized so as to optimize the stowage of the objects on a pallet, in which trolleys carrying the objects to be palletized are moved by shuttle robots from a feed point at which objects are fed in and at which the objects are loaded onto the trolleys, one object per trolley, to a buffer storage zone , and then to palletizing stations , under the control of a monitoring and control unit ; said method being characterized in that : - after the objects have been loaded onto the trolleys at the feed point, the step of acquiring the identification and morphology data identifying and indicating the morphologies of the objects is performed by means of identification devices and morphology-determining devices for determining morphologies of the objects, and then the trolleys carrying the objects are deposited in the buffer storage zone by the shuttle robots; - on the basis of the identification and morphology data identifying and indicating the morphologies of the objects, the monitoring and control unit determines when a complete batch of objects to be palletized can be formed on a pallet, and, when the monitoring and control unit determines that all of the objects forming the complete batch have been presented to the identification and morphology-determining devices, the monitoring and control unit computes a loading plan for loading said objects on the pallet, the plan being indicative of a time sequence in which the objects should be stowed on the pallet in order to obtain good distribution in three-dimensional space of the objects on the pallet as a function of the morphologies about each of the objects forming said complete batch; and - in response to determining and computing the loading plan, the monitoring and control unit initiates loading of the complete batch by controlling the shuttle robots in such a manner as to retrieve the trolleys carrying the objects forming the complete batch from the buffer storage zone in such a manner as to present the trolleys in sequence to a palletizing station in the order of the time sequence for the objects. - after the objects have been loaded onto the trolleys at the feed point, the step of acquiring the identification and morphology data identifying and indicating the morphologies of the objects is performed by means of identification devices and morphology-determining devices for determining morphologies of the objects, and then the trolleys carrying the objects are deposited in the buffer storage zone by the shuttle robots; - on the basis of the identification and morphology data identifying and indicating the morphologies of the objects, the monitoring and control unit determines when a complete batch of objects to be palletized can be formed on a pallet, and, when the monitoring and control unit determines that all of the objects forming the complete batch have been presented to the identification and morphology-determining devices, the monitoring and control unit computes a loading plan for loading said objects on the pallet, the plan being indicative of a time sequence in which the objects should be stowed on the pallet in order to obtain good distribution in three-dimensional space of the objects on the pallet as a function of the morphologies about each of the objects forming said complete batch; and - in response to determining and computing the loading plan, the monitoring and control unit initiates loading of the complete batch by controlling the shuttle robots in such a manner as to retrieve the trolleys carrying the objects forming the complete batch from the buffer storage zone in such a manner as to present the trolleys in sequence to a palletizing station in the order of the time sequence for the objects. <EOS>
