The Pcdata Putwall is a specialized Put to Light solution designed to enhance sorting of single units to order locations. It is used for sorting batches of products that have been picked from various areas of a warehouse.
The Putwall station utilizes light-directed technology, where displays and/or LED strips indicate specific locations for placing items. Operators scan every item and place them in the indicated spots and confirm the action using displays such as the B6 or DIS6, which are equipped with multi-color LED push buttons.
Once an order has been completed light indicators show the packers that the order is ready for packing or any other subsequent process. These light indicators can be at the front or the back of the putwall.
Pcdata’s Putwalls are highly flexible and scalable, featuring both automatic and manual order location management. These systems are particularly effective for the order fulfillment of multi-line orders in operations with many SKU’s and small orders, typically like e-commerce and spare parts order fulfillment.
Flexibility and Integration
Putwalls are easily integrated with existing Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions. This integration allows for seamless operation within the broader warehouse system, enhancing overall efficiency and accuracy.
Cost Savings and ROI
By improving picking speed and accuracy, Putwalls reduce labor costs, minimizing training of new staff and minimize the costs associated with order errors, such as returns and corrections. The ease of use also shortens training times, further reducing operational costs.
