Problem
In its Hong Kong warehouse, they have more than 6,000 SKUs of tiny cosmetic items in a 45,000 sq.ft area. Workers take time to walk through the warehouse and spot the right item to fulfill each order. This lowers the picking productivity & accuracy.
Solution
Geek+ deployed 42 picking robots, 739 racks & 9 workstations in DSV warehouse. Once DSV received clients’ order, Geek+ RMS would control the picking robots to bring the right rack with the right amount of items for workers to fulfill multi-order picking. Workers no longer need to walk through the warehouse.
Improvement
■ Productivity has been doubled
■ Improved picking accuracy
■ Reduce in labor cost
■ Bin location increased from 8,600 to over 18,000, a 200% increase and thus increasing storage capacity
