…to fill orders. The system’s shuttles have access to every storage container in the system. Picking There are two picking processes: Manual picking from the reserve storage area for non-conveyables that are either too large, too fragile or too heavy for the automated system and goods-to-person picking from the automated system. Manual picking Manual items include items like large bags…

…same idea as a multi-aisle shuttle system that uses dedicated robots to retrieve items and bring them to a stationary order picker. Scalable, flexible robotic solutions are critical going forward, says DHL’s Rashid. “We can’t predict consumer behavior. But, we can build DCs with the flexibility to adapt to peak seasons and changes in inventory and inventory mix. Robotic technology…

…module replenishment; and more recently, shuttle systems and automatic case dispensers. Southern Glazer’s new 1.089-million-square-foot distribution center, designed in collaboration with a system integrator (DMW&H), is a prime example of building on the successes of the past while taking its distribution processes into the future. Innovations in this facility include: Case dispensing technology that automates the picking of the fastest…

…to consider. Autonomous mobile robots, shuttle systems and cube-based storage systems all support goods-to-person picking and each has strengths and weaknesses that should be considered in the technology selection process. Mobile robots that deliver shelves or totes to stationary pickers, for example, don’t offer the storage density of other approaches, but can typically be implemented faster than those systems and…
