Order-picking systems and methods

The order-picking process is the most laborious and the most costly activity in a typical warehouse. As 50% of total order picking time is spent on traveling, organizational changes and application of various order-picking methods to reduce travel distances could lead to significant improvements. In this paper routing, storage and orderbatching methods are analyzed by simulation. The presented results showed up to 80% possible reduction of travel distances using appropriate combination of orderpicking methods.
