Pick-by-Voice combined with Pick-n-Go® automated forklift increases the productivity of the warehouse picking process as much as 75-100%.
Optiscan`s innovative Pick-n-Go® solution combines Voice and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV). The basic idea is to make warehouse picking more efficient by minimizing the time picker moves in the warehouse.
Labor costs make up over half of the total costs in the warehouse. Picking is the largest single cost factor within labor costs. A picker driving the forklift uses as much as half of his work time, driving around the warehouse. Automating this non-productive driving increases operational efficiency and productivity as much as 75-100%.
Picker uses the Voice system to control the Pick-n-Go® vehicles. As he receives the next location the vehicle automatically moves to the optimum stopping location next to it. He can adjust the height of the forks increasing ergonomy and reducing work related injuries.
The Pick-n-Go® solution is most efficientat high volume of transactions with the manual picking. It easily integrates into the current warehouse and IT-infrastructure.
Most of the productivity gain is created retrieving empty load carriers and dispatching completed assignments to the shipping area. The solution also eliminates hopping on and off the truck and enables doubling the picker`s individual productivity.
Pick-n-Go® solution improves significantly the operational efficiency and delivery reliability further, which enhances customer satisfaction. This leads to lower operational costs and customers will centralize their acquisitions and therefore the margins increase. As a result the sales and market share grow - in other words the company is more competitive.
