Case 1 – Increase Speed, Save Labour
Before
- It was necessary to build a smart framework for shipping tasks that could be operated by anyone.
- It was also necessary to introduce a system that would allow a reduction in the number of workers handling shipping tasks.
After
- Conducting a logistical analysis of product hit rates, creating distinct storage areas for A products, B products, and C products, and using conveyor belts for the work reduced walking routes and increased task efficiency by 17% compared to the existing system.
- The simple framework in which tasks are executed in accordance with instructions on display devices, accomplished a worker-friendly system that can be operated by anyone.
- The number of workers was successfully reduced (from 3 to 2.5).
Solution
Pick-to-light system combines different conveyors to successfully reduce walking routes
- In this system the flow racks for frequently shipped products (A products) are positioned around conveyor belts.
- While less often shipped products (B and C products) use medium-duty racks and conveyor belts.
- Pick to Light system secures work traffic lines, reduces the burden of on-site work and improves work quality.
Case 2 – Save Labour Using PPS
Before
- Decreased work efficiency
- Picking errors
- Inconsistent work efficiency dependent on level of operator experience
After
Our system made it possible for anyone to work efficiently
- Storage locations of the drugs are easy to determine, even for less experienced pharmacists
- Our system reduced picking errors for the pharmacists
Solution
Pick-to-light system combines different conveyors to successfully reduce walking routes
Projection Picking System(PPS)
- We created a Pick to Light System that did not require modification of the pharmacy shelves.
- Image projection technology is more nimble than light modules.
