This automated picking solution greatly increases the number of orders filled
Our high-performance pick station is designed to boost order picking. It provides operators with immediate and direct access to as many boxes or totes as possible when filling orders. It is ideal for high-turnover products, and thanks to its ergonomic design, it facilitates the preparation of up to 6 orders at a time.
The picking station consists of two levels. The totes containing the goods used to fill orders arrive on the top level. The operator removes the products from these totes and places them in a tote on the lower level corresponding to a specific order.
This system speeds up order picking operations, eliminating trips around the warehouse to locate the various products that make up each order.
• Product receipt via the goods-to-person method: operators automatically receive the boxes or totes containing the items they need to put together orders. Conveyors move the goods expeditiously, reaching speeds of up to 40 m/min. and avoiding operator travel in the facility.
• Pick-to-tote: operators remove products from the bins brought to them and immediately deposit them in one of the totes. Each tote corresponds to a customer order. Operators can prepare up to 6 orders simultaneously.
• Error elimination: thanks to WMS’s instructions and the help of the pick/put-to-light systems, the risk of error is practically non-existent.
• Safety: the goods-to-person picking station is outfitted with operator safety and protection systems. These include light curtains and a safety perimeter, among others.
