Why Automate Picking?
Optimizing picking systems is essential for improving efficiency and productivity in today’s competitive business landscape. Manual picking processes can be slow, error-prone, and labor-intensive, causing delays, inaccuracies, and increased costs. Automating picking operations helps overcome these challenges and offers numerous benefits.
Increased Productivity
Automated picking systems expedite the order fulfillment process, enabling faster order turnaround times.
Enhanced Accuracy
Automation minimizes human errors, improving order accuracy and reducing costly mistakes.
Labor Cost Savings
Automated picking reduces labor costs and allows resources to be allocated more efficiently.
Improved Safety
Automation mitigates physical strain and safety risks for workers, fostering a safer work environment.
Real-Time Data
Automated systems provide valuable data on picking operations, enabling data-driven decisions for optimization.
Scalability
Automated systems can scale to handle growing order volumes, maintaining efficiency as your business expands.
Utilize Every Cubic Unit of Space
Goods-To-Person
Goods-to-person picking systems can revolutionize your material handling operations. Key components include the Mini Load ASRS and the Vertical Lift Module (VLM).
The Mini Load ASRS is a compact automated system for efficiently storing and retrieving small items, reducing errors, and boosting productivity. It maximizes space utilization, making it ideal for facilities with limited floor space.
The Vertical Lift Module (VLM) efficiently utilizes vertical space, storing items on trays accessed by a lift mechanism. It brings trays to operators at ergonomic heights, enhancing safety and productivity by eliminating the need to climb or reach for items.
Investing in goods-to-person picking systems like the Mini Load ASRS and VLM can streamline your processes, reduce labor costs, and minimize errors. These advanced technologies optimize warehouse operations and improve overall efficiency.

Using AMRs & AGVs for Efficient Picking
Robotic Picking
Robotic picking solutions can transform your material handling operations. Technologies such as autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) can streamline processes, boost efficiency, and enhance productivity.
AMRs are self-driving machines that navigate warehouses independently. They use sensors and cameras to perceive their surroundings and make real-time decisions.
AGVs follow predetermined routes using markers, wires, or laser guidance, typically moving heavy loads or transporting goods within a warehouse. They integrate with existing equipment, like conveyors or racks, to automate product movement.
Robotic picking solutions offer numerous benefits, including optimized warehouse layouts, increased picking accuracy, reduced operational costs, and improved worker safety. At Storage Solutions, we provide a range of robotic picking systems to meet your specific needs. Contact us to learn how robotics can revolutionize your operations.

A common picking solution
Pick Modules
Pick modules are versatile solutions that optimize order picking in warehouses and distribution centers. They comprise various components and streamline and enhance picking operations.
Pick modules are highly customizable, tailored to fit specific business needs, and accommodate different product types, sizes, and volumes. They maximize space utilization with vertical storage solutions like mezzanines, racks, and shelving systems, increasing storage capacity and improving inventory management.
Designed to minimize travel time and reduce errors, pick modules enhance productivity and order accuracy. Features like conveyor systems, carton flow racks, and pick-to-light technology ensure efficient and accurate order fulfillment.
Pick modules offer scalability and flexibility, allowing for easy modifications or expansions as business needs change. At Storage Solutions, we design and implement custom pick modules to meet your unique requirements.
Cost-Effective Picking
Some cost-effective picking solutions to consider
Pick/Put-To-Light
Pick-To-Light and Put-To-Light systems use light signals to guide operators to correct locations, eliminating paper-based methods and reducing errors. This leads to increased productivity and reduced labor costs.
Put Wall
A put wall, equipped with light modules, is a key component in sorting items for order fulfillment. It ensures accurate and efficient sorting by guiding operators to place items in specific locations.
Voice Picking
Voice picking uses voice-enabled devices to provide real-time instructions, eliminating paper-based methods and handheld devices. This hands-free approach reduces errors and enhances productivity while improving worker safety.
Mobile Device Picking
Mobile device picking involves using smartphones or tablets to receive and process picking instructions. Workers can update inventory status and record tasks on the go, reducing costs and simplifying the picking process.
