Pick-by-Light systems at a glance

Pick-by-light systems are revolutionizing order picking in warehouses and production facilities thanks to their intuitive and visually supported technology.

These systems use LED strips to give employees precise instructions on which items should be picked from which storage positions. Visual guidance considerably reduces error rates and significantly increases the speed of order processing. This leads to increased efficiency and productivity in warehouse operations, as employees can work faster and without errors.

The following pick-by-light systems offer seamless integration into existing warehouse structures and can be flexibly adapted to your individual requirements.

Mobile Pick-by-Light ISAC (world first)

Mobile units or displays that are attached to the picking trolleys. These mobile devices show the operator which items are to be picked and can move through the warehouse with him.

Pick-by-Light with LED

Simple lights on the shelves or bins that indicate which product is to be picked and in what quantity. These systems are often fitted with a button that the operator presses to confirm that the item has been picked.

Pick-by-light with integrated sensors and LEDs

Systems that also use sensors to automatically confirm the removal of items. This can increase accuracy and reduce errors. 

Put-to-Light

A variant of pick-by-light that is used particularly for order consolidation in e-commerce. Here, the lights indicate which bin the items should be placed in instead of where they should be picked from.
