    Challenge: Streamlining Production on Assembly Bins

    Minimizing errors in the assembly process is crucial for companies to improve productivity and eliminate waste. In a recent application, the manager of an automotive company wanted a way to streamline productivity in their assembly cells. Operators were frequently grabbing from the wrong bin location because there was no picking system. Due to low visibility, it was difficult for operators to tell where the correct parts were, hurting productivity and increasing production costs. The manager wanted to find a way to improve the training and picking processes as well as various product rework costs. Read more to learn how the Pick-to-Light Solution Kit improved pick sequences and ensured a high level of quality at multiproduct assembly workstations.

    Solution: Improved Productivity with Pick-to-Light Solutions Kit

    The manager invested in Pick-to-Light Solutions Kit along with PTL110 pick-to-light devices to solve their problematic pick process. Immediately, their company started seeing improved results.

    The Pick-to-Light Solutions Kit is an integrated solution that consists of an enclosure, a DXM controller, a HMI, plus direct connections for PTL110 devices and power. The combined solution visually guided operators to pick the right parts, in the right quantities and in the right sequence. This reduced errors and defects and increased productivity by eliminating a common source of wasted time like checking and re-checking instructions. Having the entire Pick-to-Light solution made training new operators an easier and simpler process, ultimately saving the manager time and money.  

    Key Benefits of the Pick-to-Light Solutions Kit
