The Mobile Warehouse: Pallet Picking

Posted October 19, 2009

 

Increase Pick Accuracy

One surefire way to expedite orders reduce delivery errors and make your customers happy is to improve picking accuracy.

In a mobile warehouse, pallet picking is significantly faster, more accurate and more cost-effective. And pallets checks and re-checks are a thing of the past.

Eliminate Error-prone Paper Processes

The key lies in technology that allows you to replace lists and other manual processes with technology that offers real-time control, viewing and verification of pallets.

Vehicle- and fixed-mounted computers and printers make pallet picking both flexible and cost-efficient. These versatile devices offer hands-free work direction and scan verification while eliminating error- prone paper processes.

Vehicles can be directed to “the next best task” based on their location and capabilities; all in real-time. And with RFID-equipped forklifts, picking instructions can be submitted wirelessly to forklift operators along with automatic pallet verification to ensure 100% picking accuracy.
