Platforms for order picking
June 1st 2007

Automated Guided Vehicles from E & K Automation are now available as flexible platforms for order picking.

AGV technology is suitable for servicing highbay, narrow-aisle or wideaisle warehouses, or for supporting the pickers. AGVs can now be used to optimise and improve pick-by-light, put-to-light and pick-byvoice operations.

They can also be used to support pick-face monitoring systems that give clear guidance to pickers and are said to yield higher productivity.

Automated and driverless trucks can support lean and smart order picking, with automated battery charging routines such as prioritydispatch built in.
