The PICK-MAX™ pick to light system was designed to provide system integrators and end users with a light directed order fulfillment system that is easily installed, controlled, and maintained.

Pick modules and displays are designed to be snapped into a special 3-wire BUS, which is housed in a rigid PVC extrusion. This design, similar to a track lighting system, greatly minimizes the wiring required to install a system. For this reason, the PICK-MAX™ system installs very quickly.

All PICK-MAX™ devices are identified with a serial number, which assures no two devices are the same. This serial number is used to identify a device when communicating with it. This feature also minimizes system installation and setup as no DIP switches or other indexing methods are required to uniquely identify each device.

"Display based" systems use a full 4-digit numerical pick module at each pick location. This format provides the ability to show all required picks and their corresponding quantities at once. As picks are completed, pickers press the task complete pushbuttons until all are extinguished. Usually, order control modules are provided on each bay to provide a method for the operator to indicate he/she has finished the order and is ready to pass the order to the next zone.

• Increases picker productivity and accuracy providing a fast return on investment.
• Picker accountability is maintained for every pick.
• Zone-less operation requires no zone balancing or order profiling.
• Provides real time shorting of orders and directed replenishment.
• PC based system integrates easily with a wide variety of host warehouse management systems.
• The Pick to Light Software has a graphical user interface that is simple to use, even for inexperienced computer users.
• System is simple to operate and requires minimal operator training.
• Each device has onboard diagnostics allowing local verification of device operation.
• Utilizes keyboard type switches instead of membrane switches providing long life.
• BUS extrusion design allows very fast installation and reconfiguration and eliminates costly and failure prone wiring.
