The use of technology, machinery, and systems to automate and optimize various warehouse operations and processes, such as inventory management, order fulfillment, and material handling.
Wave picking is a method where orders are grouped into waves or batches based on specific criteria such as location or product type. Instead of picking orders one by one, multiple orders within a wave are picked simultaneously to increase efficiency.
Zone picking divides the warehouse into specific zones or areas, and each picker is assigned to a particular zone. Pickers are responsible for picking items only from their designated zones, and the picked items are later consolidated to complete the order. This method can increase efficiency by reducing travel time within the warehouse.
