Advanced Automated Picking for High-Volume Efficiency

Pallet, Layer, and Case Picking Solutions

  • mark Pallet Picking: Ideal for operations with large format order fulfillment, our AS/RS’s provide the speed, accuracy, and redundancy to execute all full pallet order requests.
  • mark Layer Picking: Our layer picking solution is perfect for operations that require picking by layers instead of full pallets. This system is especially effective for operations touching a larger number of SKU’s in layer format per day, taking full advantage of most if not all orders requested in layer quantity.
  • mark Case Picking: Our case picking solutions are designed for high volume SKUs, offering both fully automated and manual replenishment options. These systems are adaptable to various order profiles, ensuring accurate and efficient order fulfillment.
Continuous Stock Availability

Automated Replenishment Systems

Automated replenishment is key to maintaining efficient order selection processes. By automating the delivery of products to the pick face, this system supports both fully automated picking and manual picking operations, reducing labor requirements and increasing overall efficiency.

Functions of Automated Replenishment:

  • mark Supports Automated Picking: Ensures that products are readily available for automated pallet, layer, and case picking, minimizing downtime and maximizing throughput.
  • mark Supports Manual Picking: Automates the replenishment of pick faces in manual picking operations, improving efficiency by reducing the need for manual transport and ensuring that pickers can focus on order fulfillment.
Efficiency-Enhanced Manual Picking

Manual Picking with Automated Replenishment

For operations where full automation isn’t necessary, Westfalia offers solutions that integrate automated replenishment with manual picking methods. These hybrid approaches ensure that your workforce is supported by technology, enhancing efficiency and safety.

Types of Manual Picking Systems:

  • mark Goods to Person: Products are automatically delivered to a picker who completes the order manually. This method increases efficiency by reducing picker travel time and optimizing the picking process.
  • mark Person to Goods: In this approach, pickers manually retrieve products, with automated systems ensuring the pick face is consistently stocked. Whether using a pallet jack or a belt conveyor, this method supports efficient order fulfillment. The design can be tailored to include walk-back pick faces for accessing multiple SKUs in one aisle or forward-facing pick faces for faster selection of high-volume SKUs.
