voice system responds with specifics on
the location of the first item needed. The
associate moves the train to that location
and reads off a check digit on the rack
for verification. The Jennifer system then
requests the required pick quantity. After
the associate has selected the needed items
and confirmed the quantity, the voice
system directs him or her to place specific
quantities of that item into the appropriate
containers, according to their identification numbers. The associate then reads
off a unique check digit located on the
container ID label to assure that the items
have been placed in the correct container.
The voice system then provides the next
location number, prompting the associate
to move the train as needed and repeat the
picking process. Once all of the items for
a given container have been picked from
that zone, the associate is instructed to
push the container off onto the conveyor
and complete picking with the remaining containers. Cartons and totes on the
conveyors that require further picks are
then diverted to additional zones, where
the process is repeated until all orders are
filled.
Blue totes are conveyed to the store
Employees scan arriving totes and cartons,
which triggers the printers to generate
packing lists. They then remove the items
from the totes and verify them against the
pack lists before packing them into ship-
ping cartons. The items that were already
shoebox-sized items. Conveyors
run through the middle of the
module to transport products and
move them between levels, which is
done via spiral conveyors.
PICK AND PASS
The two-level module is divided into 16 pick zones, eight per
level. As with the cart picking area,
orders for both the retail and
e-commerce channels are filled
from the same shared inventory,
and color-coded containers are
used for gathering items. These
containers include totes that originated in the cart pick area as well
as totes that begin their journey in
the pick module. They may even
include shipping cartons. To save
time in packing downstream, the
company picks some of its orders
into the two most popular-sized
shipping cartons.
To optimize the picking process, the two-level
module uses a pick-and-pass approach in which
order totes are diverted
only to zones containing
needed items. As the containers ride along on the
onto nonpowered side rollers. An
associate assigned to that zone then
gathers the containers—up to eight
at a time—and assembles them into
a “train” that he or she pushes on
the rollers past the storage racks
holding source products.
To begin picking, the associate
scans each container’s label to let
