State of the art order picking at Hoffmann La Roche
|  |
La Roche produces pharmaceuticals and distributes thousands of single packs and pieces per day to whole salers and hospitals. Hoffman La Roche set their sights on same-day
despatch of all orders received by 2.30 pm.
|
| |
Using paperless technology, individual packs are picked from ergonomically optimised Pickflow storage lanes with incorporated roller and belt conveyors, while cartons are picked
from a FIFO pallet flow storage system.
|
| |
The product segregated FIFO principle of the Pickflow order picking and the pallet flow storage eliminates any chance of accidental product mix. In conjunction with central
computer control, this improves order picking up to 100%.
