Pick-to-Light for Manufacturing

Pick-to-Light for Manufacturing

Lighting up lean manufacturing.

Pick-to-light is an ideal poka-yoke (error proofing) device for reducing errors and defects in production processes. Lights direct operators to the correct parts and quantities, in the correct sequential steps, as required for the active bill of materials (BOM). The Lightning Pick methodology also eliminates wasted touches common to paper-based material handling approaches.

Lightning Pick optimizes parts selection in mini-markets, supermarkets, warehouses and other dedicated parts storage areas so the right parts are sequenced to the production line at the right time. Our light-directed systems also reduce mistakes (and their associated costs) in kitting and assembly workstations.

Lightning Pick offers manufacturers distinct solution paths, each engineered to best meet different application sizes, requirements and levels of complexity.
