  1. Innovating Warehouse OperationsChapter 6Case Picking Systems Three categories of systems 1 – pick-face palletizing system Motorized pallet jack Operator may walk or ride Pallet Jack picking Pallet train Lift truck (forklift) picking Order picker trucks End of aisle AS/RS (rare) Robotic (expensive / rarely justified)

  2. Innovating Warehouse OperationsChapter 6Case Picking Systems 2 – down-stream palletizing system Pick-to-conveyor (cases are placed on conveyors) Substantially higher productivity Pickers assigned to zones Less travel No palletizing as they pick Case sorting system (pick-to-belt) (sorted into orders) Pick-car; automated case dispensing; tier/layer picking Palletized at or near the shipping dock (manually, mechanically, robotically)

  3. Innovating Warehouse OperationsChapter 6Case Picking Systems 3 – direct loading system Cases conveyed to outbound trailer Used when cases do not need palletizing Can be manual Mechanized Or Robotic

  4. Innovating Warehouse OperationsChapter 6Case Picking Systems Case-picking systems selection Conduct an Economic Case Picking Mode Analysis Should consider: Activity & inventory profile Storage & handling characteristics of each storage mode EA should recommend appropriate picking mode for ease item Often use simulation tools to recommend best design

  5. Innovating Warehouse OperationsChapter 6Case Picking Systems Case picking systems cost & productivity characteristics
