What Is a Warehouse Control System?

The Exacta Warehouse Control System (WCS) includes both traditional automation control as well as several modules of functionality typically found within a warehouse management system. The Exacta WCS collects information as events occur from all types of order fulfillment technology and material handling equipment, as well as other higher level software systems to efficiently direct and manage processing within a warehouse. The critical link between all of these individual pieces of equipment is the WCS, which provides you with user interfaces for planning, managing, monitoring and controlling activity. The modular nature allows for additional functionality to be easily added in as the needs of the facility change and grow. The core functions of a WCS include planning, visibility, order fulfillment and automation control.

  • How It Works

    +
    Warehouse Control Systems
    • A Warehouse Control System is a single central interface with equipment from a variety of vendors, providing flexibility in purchasing decisions.
    • A Warehouse Control System reacts to feedback from the technology and equipment used and quickly adjusts and balances work flow.
    • Warehouse Control System software, with visibility to both incoming orders and orders already in process, releases orders in quantities to match the system's current ability to process them, offering continuous flow.
    • Warehouse Control Systems coordinate multiple types of material handling equipment within one system for synchronized, high throughput processing.

    Human Machine Interface

    The Human Machine Interface (HMI) is a key component of a warehouse control system solution. A Human Machine Interface is a graphical monitoring tool used to provide visibility to detailed conveyor status information for system operators and maintenance personnel. HMIs provide real time statistics to monitor the vital statistics of the automation equipment system.
