Order picking in the warehouse via Pick by Voice
Order picking is a key element of warehouse logistics. An excellent tool to help with this is pick by voice technology. Voice technology can support the implementation of many warehouse processes, but the most visible benefits will be in the picking area. Communication using voice commands is a particularly valuable solution for shopping centers, logistics operators, retail chains and warehouses where goods are picked manually, often by employees speaking different languages. Voice systems are ideal for picking heterogeneous pallets, but they are also highly effective in the e-commerce industry.
Voice solutions and easy integration
Pick by voice technology transforms commands from the WMS system into voice commands. Thanks to this, communication between the system and the operator takes place using voice commands. Due to the increasing use of voice systems in many enterprises, solutions have been prepared that integrate with the most common WMS systems through the most popular forms of data exchange (WebService, Rest API, Web Scraping).
Order picking – advantages thanks to pick by voice
The picking zone is an area worth focusing on in particular, because it is one of the most important and most difficult stages of warehouse processes. An error or delay made in the picking zone can have a huge impact on the quality of customer service and an increase in operational costs.
Thanks to voice systems, the picking of goods becomes significantly simplified, which translates into faster and more precise implementation of this process. Customers often achieve significant benefits within the first year of using this system.
Not just order picking
Goods picking as an area of application of voice systems brings the greatest benefits. However, thanks to pick by voice technology, you can additionally reduce warehouse labor costs and improve the processes of packing, replenishing goods, loading goods or transferring them – depending on the warehouse operation specifications.
