Order picking

Pick-by-light
A light signal indicates the storage compartment and the number of items to be picked. The picker confirms the removal of the ordered quantity from the storage compartment.

Pick-to-light
Usually in conjunction with the "goods-to-person" principle. Several orders are picked at the same time. The light signal indicates the order for which the next article is intended.

Pick-by-voice
A voice-guided picking system. The picker receives the orders via computer voice over headphones and can also confirm them by voice.

Pick-by-vision
An innovative special form of order picking. The picker receives the necessary information directly in his field of vision via data goggles. The signals via the glasses guide him to the next position in a route-optimized manner.

Pick by handheld
The picker calls up his orders on the display of his mobile data capture device, which he holds in his hand. The removal of goods is confirmed by scan.

Pick & pack
A process in which the picked items are placed directly into the transport packaging. Typical for fast order picking in the mail order business.

Multi-stage picking
The entire order quantity of all orders for a specific processing period is picked at once. Only then is it allocated to the individual orders in a second processing step. Typical for large order volumes such as in e-commerce.

Multi-order picking
Several orders are picked together in one tour. The picker saves time and can work in a route-optimized manner.

Automatic order picking
If required, order picking can also be fully automated, e.g. using robots or automatic machines. The experts at Unitechnik will be happy to advise you.
