Automated guided vehicle systems for Goods-to-Person order picking
THE GRENZEBACH INTRALOGISTICS SOLUTION FOR WAREHOUSING
Online retail is booming. With the increasing number of orders coupled with the expectation of ever shorter delivery times, picking goods is becoming more of a challenge.
Today, most of the associated warehouse processes are still carried out manually by people. For picking, for example, this means that employees walk through a warehouse that has items on shelves or trolleys to collect the corresponding products. This “walking time” is lost working time. The bottom line is that warehouse processes are slow and inefficient. Leading companies in warehousing and fulfillment are therefore turning to automation, especially when pursuing an omnichannel strategy with multiple sales channels.
With Grenzebach goods-to-person solutions, employees remain stationary at so-called pick stations. Automated guided vehicles transport goods carriers with products to these stations. The employees remove the relevant products and place them in order containers, such as shipping cartons. Clear displays support picking, thus preventing errors. Upstream and downstream steps in the order process, such as packaging and shipping, can also be integrated. Intelligent software ensures that warehouse processes and order processing are optimized efficiently.
Getting it right the first time: an achievable goal in eCommerce.
