According to Bernie McCabe, Senior Manager with Lightning Pick, “The Ultra-Fast Small-Parts Sortation System we offer is Wind Sorter, a unique small-parts sortation system that uses air to label and divert product at incredible rates of speed.

According to Bernie McCabe, Senior Manager with Lightning Pick, “LP Pick to Light can be fully integrated into any MRP, MES, ERP, WMS or internally developed host system. Lightning Pick does offer the option of being installed as an independent, stand alone product in which Bills of Material, kits or recipes can be entered, maintained and used to control the light-directed activity.”

Lightning Pick Technologies’ LP Pick to Light solution is ideal for continuous improvement environments by reducing errors and defects in parts and components handling processes. The light-directed methodology is an effective poka-yoke (error proofing) device by directing operators to the correct parts and quantity of each required for the active Bill of Materials. The Lightning Pick methodology also supports kaizen events by eliminating wasted touches common to paper-based material handling approaches.

RF Picking offers a cost effective alternative for applications within an order fulfillment operation with a large number of products and volume that does not justify installation of Pick to Light. LP RF operates on a wide range of scanning terminals. A customer may be able to employ their existing RF terminals.

In many high-performance picking operations how the cartons or totes get to the pick areas can be just as important as the pick process itself. LP Convey can help streamline that process. LP Convey makes use of data within the Lightning Pick database to understand the container routing requirements. The system integrates with conveyor control programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and the conveyor mounted bar code readers over Ethernet network to identify and divert containers into required pick areas. The unique decision point configuration approach relieves the PLC of data handling tasks associated with most bar code based applications and results in a system that is easily modified and maintained by plant personnel.

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 displayed. The operator then confirms the pick by pressing the lighted button.

According to Bernie McCabe, Senior Manager with Lightning Pick, “By lighting the exact location or locations needed, pick-to-light is acknowledged to be the fastest operator-based picking strategy available. In the time it takes to hear and interpret a location number or read a location number from a pick list of an RF terminal screen, the pick-to-light operator is already making the pick.”

Lightning Pick Technologies, providers of paperless picking systems including the number one selling Pick to Light solution in North America recently released Lightning Pick NW Series Wireless Pick to Light System. The NW Series is the first completely mobile Pick to Light technology in the market, introducing an expanded range of applications that can benefit from light-directed order picking.
