thanks to the “goods-to-person” principle there is a clear reduction in the distance covered by personnel. this generally cuts the travel time (= the biggest part of picking time) from around 65% to around 10%. it also allows for fast and accurate access to the stored goods to avoid unproductive search times. with software-supported picking strategies, e.g. batch picking, the picking performance can be improved even further.
all horizontal carousels belonging to one picking station work continuously and in parallel, guaranteeing permanent access to goods and reducing waiting times to a minimum for the picker.
