Order Fulfillment with Pick-to-Light
Improve Customer Satisfaction with Fast, Accurate Order Fulfillment
Order fulfillment refers to the process of receiving, processing, and delivering orders to end customers. A critical step in this process is ensuring that orders are picked from the shelves correctly and efficiently.
Quick, accurate picking increases customer satisfaction by ensuring that customers receive the correct item(s) on time. Banner Engineering offers a variety of light-guided picking solutions to match your application.
Getting the Right Order On Time Has Never Been More Challenging, or More Critical
In the age when almost anything can be delivered directly to a customer's doorstep, reliable order fulfillment systems are a must. Customers expect their orders to be correct and be delivered quickly—sometimes in as little as a few hours.
Fulfilling large volumes of orders quickly, especially with a high mix of inventory and little margin for error, can be extremely challenging. Fully manual processes are prone to human error; however, light-guided order picking is a cost-effective solution that helps workers quickly and accurately identify the correct order.
Choose a Versatile, Scalable Solution
- For larger scale applications, a pick-to-light solution must feature fast response speeds to accommodate many pick points without lags.
- The new PTL110 pick-to-light devices from Banner are powered by PICK-IQ™, a purpose-built, Modbus compatible serial bus protocol that uses a Common ID to reduce the typical latency that results from polling multiple devices.
- A fast response speed at scale is ideal for fulfillment stations that require many pick points while maintaining a rapid pace to exceed productivity targets.
Put-To-Light Solutions Reduce Errors Downstream
- Picking activities are only effective if the right inventory is in place and ready to be picked.
- Because of this, fulfillment centers require an efficient method for putting inventory on the shelves so that orders will be easily accessible during fulfillment.
- Put-to-light solutions improve the efficiency and accuracy of stocking activities and can help prevent downtime by reducing delays due to misplaced or incorrect orders.
Optical Sensors Verify Pick Accuracy
- Pick-to-light devices with optical sensing capabilities can be used to check picks for accuracy in real time.
- These devices detect when a hand reaches into a shelf to pick a package and breaks the sensing beam or array.
- When picks are executed correctly, yellow LEDs confirm that the operator picked from the right location on the shelf.
- If the operator reaches into an incorrect shelf, a light turns red indicating an error.
Scalable, Versatile Pick-To-Light Devices
Os dispositivos pick-to-light PTL110 são indicadores multifuncionais com opções de botão touch, sensor óptico e display de três dígitos, conectados em série para criar um sistema de coleta potente. Com tempos de resposta rápidos e opções de instalação flexíveis, os sistemas PTL110 melhoram a velocidade, a produtividade e a qualidade em coleta, montagem de kits e aplicações relacionadas.
