Light-directed order fulfillment systems

Light-directed order fulfillment systems use light indicator modules mounted to shelving, flow rack, work benches, pallet rack or other storage locations . Whenever product is needed from a particular location, the right indicator turns on, drawing attention where action is required. The operator picks the product quantity cable duct displayed. The operator then confirms the pick by pressing the lighted button.

In 1998 Lightning Pick introduced duct-based Pick to Light technology to the United States. These cable-free nbso light modules retrofit to a rack, shelf, cart or other material handling storage media. The new track-lighting style hardware lowered installation cable trunking costs and is more flexible for system reconfiguration, maintenance, and expansion. Cable-free displays are the industry standard, but distributors still sought after a means of applying Pick to Light speed and accuracy to operations that did not have the infrastructure for mounted lights.
