Box former
The whole process starts with the formation of boxes. This task is done by four automatic machines (each assigned to a different sized box) located at the beginning of
the conveyor circuit.
The warehouse management system
(WMS) tells the box formers the quantity and the size of boxes the orders require,
taking into account the composition of each
wave being prepared. The boxes, identified
through allocation and labelling, are progressively sent towards the conveyor circuit
to the first prep table, where the product
needed for its order is found. The operator
reads the label on the package with an RF
terminal to determine what material should
be inserted.
