Light Directed Picking/Pick to Light

Voice-directed picking is a process in which workers use a headset and microphone to receive instructions on which items to pick and where to find them. This hands-free system can improve accuracy and productivity while reducing the need for paper or handheld devices.

Benefits

Improves speed and accuracy: Pick to light systems are designed to speed up the picking process by reducing the time taken by the worker to locate the item in the warehouse. The system directs the worker to the correct location, and once there, the light display indicates the item to be picked. This reduces the time taken to find the correct item and results in faster order fulfillment. Additionally, the system ensures high levels of accuracy as workers are directed to the exact item to pick for a specific order, reducing the chances of errors.

Reduces labor costs: By improving the speed and accuracy of the picking process, pick to light systems can help to reduce labor costs. This is because fewer workers are needed to complete the same amount of work, resulting in reduced labor costs. Additionally, the system reduces the time taken by workers to locate items, allowing them to focus on picking the items and completing more orders in a shorter amount of time.

Improves order accuracy: Pick to light systems can help to improve order accuracy by reducing the chances of errors. The system directs workers to the exact item to pick, reducing the chances of mistakes in the picking process. This can help to improve customer satisfaction by ensuring that orders are fulfilled accurately and on time.

Customizable and scalable: Pick to light systems are highly customizable and can be tailored to suit the specific needs of a warehouse or distribution center. They can be integrated with existing warehouse management systems to provide real-time data and analytics, allowing for better inventory management and order tracking. Additionally, pick to light systems are scalable, meaning they can be expanded or
modified as business needs change.

In conclusion, pick to light is a proven technology that offers numerous benefits to warehouses and distribution centers. By significantly improving the speed and accuracy of the picking process, reducing labor costs, and improving order accuracy, pick to light can help businesses to optimize their operations and improve customer satisfaction. With its customization and scalability, pick to light is a worthwhile investment for any business looking to improve its warehouse or distribution center operations.
