100% picking accuracy October 1st 2011 KiSoft Vision, KNAPP's visiondirected
order picking system, has
been presented in operation for the
first time at the distribution centre of
Magnum Medical in Tallinn, Estonia.
The technology has achieved a
quality level of 6 from Six Sigma,
ensuring 100% error-free order
picking. This level of accuracy is
possible because KiSoft Vision
supports picking staff through an
optimal combination of optical user
guidance, image recognition, barcode
and serial number tracking, and
audio feedback.
Explains Craig Rollason, head of
sales and marketing for KNAPP UK:
"The system uses augmented reality
technology, which visualises
information at the exact time and
location the operator needs it,
through a head-mounted display. An
integrated navigation system
calculates the picker's optimal route
through the warehouse." More articles from KNAPP UK Ltd: |
