Preventing picking errors and reducing costs – tips for logistics specialists

Cutting down on errors with visualization 

Companies that handle a large number of products and containers are the ones that struggle most with mistakes in order picking. But these logistics operations with a high number of items in the warehouse, from tiny screws to large and bulky items, also stand to benefit most from product visualization and reduce the number of errors in the material flow.

This may not come as a big newsflash to many logistics experts. In many operations, products are already visualized to help pickers using simple images attached to the storage spaces. But keeping these images up to date is a time and labor-intensive process, especially when the products being handled change frequently.
