‘Pick-to-Light’ concept enhances warehouse efficiency
28 May 2007
New ‘pick-to-light’ display and control technology offers flexible and cost-effective stock picking solutions.
New ‘pick-to-light’ display and control technology, now available in the UK from Metrix Electronics, offers flexible and cost-effective stock picking solutions.
The modular mipick system enables manual picking to be fully integrated into existing or new computer-controlled order-processing and warehouse applications. The mipick concept is simple, paperless and highly efficient.
Each module has a lamp to show which items are to be picked, a numeric display to show what quantity and a push-button to confirm that the item has been picked.
The robust aluminium modules are only 160 or 175 by 60mm and just 30mm deep. They are available in range of anodised fascia colours, with either red or green numeric LEDs. The display format can be customised for different applications.
Modules are easy to connect to a 115kB RS-485 data bus and 12V DC power supply. Up to 1,984 modules can be linked to a Profibus-DP master, and standard solutions can be expanded to 3,968 modules.
Metrix Electronics is the exclusive UK agent for microSYST Systemelectronic GmbH. Peter Rummer, M.D. commented; “microSYST have over 16 years experience in state-of-the-art industrial display systems and interfaces. This expertise is available to implement and support mipick ‘pick-to-light’ warehousing systems”.
