Overcome warehouse picking problems with Zebra.
Overcome picking pains and benefit from warehouse gains using an innovative Zebra solution!
When you’re running a small-medium sized warehouse the implications of everyday picking pains can be huge, but how can you combat the challenges? The first step is to identify what processes you have in place and highlight any bug bears your workers may be facing. It might be that your team are having to handle too many devices, they simply don’t have enough hands to be as proactive as they could be. Maybe the technology you have in place is outdated and now too slow to co-operate with the volume of incoming orders. Have you got a lack of real time visibility? These are just a few examples of pains your business could potentially be having, but how can they be solved and what would the benefit be?
Using the scenarios above, we now know that there’s a problem within the picking process. When you’ve provided workers with various devices to get the job done, yes, they may have everything they need, apart from one vital thing – their hands! In this case you could either find a suitable rugged mobile computer (eg. TC52/TC57) or rugged tablet (eg. ET5x) that has been purposely built for enterprise. Alternatively, why not consider wearable technology such as the WS50 (various mount versions available). Providing more flexibility for your workforce will simplify the task at hand and offer time to handle more orders.
If you’ve been using the same technology for years’, you might be due an upgrade. When older devices run slowly this will take up valuable picking time and reduce productivity. A small change can have a big impact. Implementing devices like the TC8300 touch computer will revolutionise the way your warehouse works. Benefit from improved scan-intensive workflows, intuitive touch interfaces for ease of use and the ability to scan close and far distances. You’ll streamline your processes and feel the gains from faster pick times.
