Description
In an order fulfillment operation for a candy distributor, bins are equipped with EZ-LIGHT K50 sensors connected to a process controller programmed with the order. Based on the order, the K50 illuminates to show which items to pick.
When the worker places a hand into the bin, the indicator detects the presence of the hand, and the controller triggers the K50 on the next bin to pick.
