Scheffer has revolutionized the product-to-man picking process, bringing significant gains in ergonomics and internal movement efficiency. Our solution uses automated stacker cranes that deliver the product directly to the operator. After picking the material, the system automatically re-stores it, ensuring a continuous and organized flow.
The picking stations are meticulously designed for the operator to work in an ergonomic and safe position, combining comfort with agility in the picking process. In addition to a monitor guiding the operator at each step, we also employ auxiliary devices, such as light grids, which further increase system efficiency.
This approach not only improves the safety and health of operators but also maximizes productivity, setting a new standard of excellence in logistics and automation.
The “Pick to Light” system revolutionizes efficiency in order picking by visually guiding the operator to precise locations and speeding up the item placement process. In the Put to Light system, LEDs guide the operator visually to the exact location where each order item should be placed. Each location is associated with a specific order and has a corresponding LED.
The “Pick to Belt” system involves picking products directly onto conveyor belts, which move the items to different consolidation or packing points.
Here’s how it works:
Task Receipt: The operator receives picking instructions, usually through a warehouse management system (WMS).
Item Picking: The operator picks the items from shelves or bins as indicated by the system.
Belt Placement: Items are placed on a conveyor belt that takes them to a central consolidation point or directly to the packing area.
Automated Movement: The conveyor belt moves the products efficiently and quickly to the next stages of the process.
