Transforming Case Picking with Autonomous Mobile Robots
OPTIMIZE PICKING PRODUCTIVITY AND SPEED
Directed Robotic Picking Benefits:
Innovative directed picking robots optimize worker productivity by actively directing workers to their next pick location. Directed Picking eliminates non-value-added roaming or patrolling of aisles. Instead, the AMRs visually guide workers to their next closest pick opportunity, reducing lost time for repetitive decision-making and minimizing unproductive walk time.
Maximized Picking Productivity - AMRs assist workers in completing discrete picking, each picking, case picking, and batch picking orders for optimized efficiency. Interleaved tasks include putaway and inventory counting.
Workers set their own picking pace for higher pick rates .
Directed Picking eliminates the burden of pushing heavy manual carts and the limitations of slower motorized cart systems by letting workers pick at their own pace. With this system, workers can achieve significantly higher UPH and LPH rates with less walking and more time on task.
