Picking area: 1,312 ft of conveyors
with pick-to-light
The order fulfillment area is composed of
two carton flow racking blocks for boxes
with pick-to-light systems allocated to high
consumption products and a conveyor circuit that crosses the racks until it reaches the
consolidation area.
The goods are introduced into the higher
end of each racking level, which is slight-
ly inclined so that the box moves via grav-
ity flow to the opposite end, which faces the
outbound or preparation aisle. Each three
level high rack is divided into multiple chan-
nels equipped with the pick-to-light system,
which visually indicates the pick-up position
and the quantity of SKUs the operator must
extract for each order. Once the products
are selected and placed into the box, the
operator presses a button and confirms the
performed operation.
The automatic conveyor passes through
the inside of the racks. Manual conveyors
were installed, outside and in parallel to the
racks, which are used as prep tables.
When orders are completed, they are
pushed onto the first conveyor and move to
the sorting/consolidation zone.
In the upper part of the racks and on the side of
the replenishment aisle, various levels for storing pallets with reserves of the products located in the carton flow channels were set up.
The pick-to-light system
guarantees maximum
speed and productivity
when selecting
and extracting items.
In addition to being user
friendly for operators,
it is a hands-free system
with no need for
an external device
to be carried
