Dynamic Picking Solutions for Modern Warehouse Operations
In traditional logistics, operators spend up to 60% of their time simply walking between storage locations. Racforce transforms this workflow by bringing the inventory directly to the operator. By integrating a warehouse picking system with intelligent software and robotics, we create a seamless flow from storage to shipping, ensuring your facility can handle peak seasonal demands with ease.
What Is a Picking System?
A Goods-to-Person (GTP) picking system refers to an automated method of delivering inventory directly to designated stations for selection. By utilizing information-driven automation, we move goods without moving people. This drastically reduces the walking distance for operators, allowing for a picking efficiency several times higher than traditional methods.
This automated picking system offers prominent advantages in storage density, labor reduction, and overall throughput, making it a cornerstone of warehouse picking automation.
Key Features of the Picking System：
1. Efficient sorting
The order fulfillment rate per hour of a goods-to-person system is 8 to 15 times that of manual picking. This provides a massive competitive advantage compared to traditional warehousing distribution centers.
- Extreme Accuracy: By combining electronic tags, RF terminals, and weighing systems, our robotic picking solution improves accuracy by an entire order of magnitude.
- Error Control: While traditional systems struggle with 99.5% accuracy, our automated systems control errors to within 005%, essentially eliminating the need for a secondary review link and reducing headcount.
2. Efficient storage
Storage density is significantly increased through the use of three-dimensional and intensive storage.
- Space Utilization: Traditional sorting methods often utilize less than 25% of available cube space. With stereoscopic storage, utilization reaches over 45%.
- Dense Storage: If intensive storage technology is applied, space utilization can exceed 60%—roughly 4 to 5 times the capacity of traditional shelving.
3. Reduce Labor Intensity
Our system, built upon an automated stereoscopic warehouse foundation, removes the physical strain of manual handling.
- Stationary Picking: Workers remain at ergonomic work platforms; they no longer need to travel miles across the warehouse floor.
- Cost & Culture: Reducing the physical load improves work efficiency, lowers overall labor costs, and enhances employee retention by creating a safer, "happier" workplace.
