Attention: Warehouse
Managers and Owners!
Looking
for an easy-to-use and 100% accurate order picking system?
With the No-More-Errors
(NME) Order Picking System,
Multiple Order Picking is as
Easy as 1-2-3! |
Warehouse managers
and owners are skeptical when we tell them the NME Multiple Order Picking
System is easy to learn and just as easy to use.
And, once we tell them that with NME, they’ll achieve 100%
picking accuracy – well, they become downright disbelieving. (Let’s
face it, how many picking systems make this claim? That’s right –
until now zero!)
|
If
your pickers can scan barcodes, they can use the NME system to pick
16 (or more) orders in batches – guaranteed error-free! – in one trip
through your warehouse. |
How the NME Batch Picking
System Works
Step
#1 Set up the Batch
Scan the bar code on
each order you want to pick, and then scan the pick cart location where the
order is to be placed. To save time, you can pick directly into shipping
cartons. Pick data is then downloaded via RF wireless transfer.
Total time
required: 90 seconds or less, depending on the number of orders included in the
"batch" you are forming.
Step
#2 Begin Picking
1. Using the
NME hand-held scanning device, your picker follows directions on the screen
to the pick slot location, and scans the item or slot bar code. The quantity
to be picked
then disappears from the screen requiring a “blind” entry of the
count. (Some companies will allow larger quantities to be keyed in
instead of scanned.
2. Picker
scans each item picked or keys in how many pieces picked. If the pick is
correct, the scanner will “beep.” If incorrect, picker hears a “boop.”
3. Picker
places order items directly into shipping carton or pick tote and scans
it to verify items have been placed into the correct cart location.
Repeat Pick Steps 1 –
3 until picking is complete. The system
will not allow the picker to continue if an error occurs . The
error MUST be corrected before moving on to the next pick.
Total time required: +/- 12
seconds per pick depending on order size and batch size.
This translates to 300 lines/hour!
Step
#3 Deliver Goods to Shipping
When the picker has completed
all orders, he or she pushes the cart to the pack station. If the orders
were picked into ship cartons, they can be
stuffed sealed, weighed, and labeled in one quick step.
Because order accuracy
is already 100% verified, you do not need to re-count or
double-check order
contents for accuracy!
Total time required: 2 – 3
minutes per order, depending on size of box, method of shipping, etc.

Some
Frequently Asked Questions About the NME Batch Picking System
“Will
the NME system work with my own unique systems?”
In operation the NME system interfaces
briefly with your order entry system – and it only does so to get order
information. Depending on your system, this information may either be exported
by your system to NME, or it may be possible for NME to reach in and
import from your system. Either way, the process is painless and will
not conflict with, nor corrupt, your backend system. On site
installation assistance is available, if you desire it.
“The NME sounds
really technical. How much training is involved?”
As shown above, the NME is as
easy to use as "1-2-3". Most pickers can learn how to start the program,
build pick lists, and use the scanner itself in under 30 minutes,
including new-hires or temps. Those
who are comfortable with computers figure it out in five minutes or
less.
“What if the
system breaks down? I can’t afford expensive repairs.”
Because it’s based on RF or
WIFI, the NME system can’t “break down” in the true sense of the word.
Unlike a full-scale warehouse management system, where the terminal or
device has to be in constant contact with the host computer, the NME
scanning device only requires contact with the host system when loading
or updating order information. In any case, the NME system requires
standard low-cost ($100 or less) WIFI transponders placed about the warehouse.
Most importantly, should your RF network fail, no work or data is ever
lost. (We do recommend that you have a spare access point so picking can
resume once it’s ready to go.)
“How much downtime
is required to install the NME system?”
Installation
affects your business minimally – and the short downtime is more than
made up once the system is up and running. If you desire, we can come to your site and
install it for you, or walk you through the installation process over the phone.
“Why do I need
this system anyway? We’re doing ok without it.”
