How Pick Modules Work
Pick modules are single story or multi-level rack structures
to store inventory and pick items for order fulfillment.
The main component of a pick module is rack. Pick modules
may be made up of various rack types including pallet,
carton flow, or shelving. The number of storage locations
and SKUs stored in pick modules varies greatly from
hundreds to thousands.
Large distribution centers often have several multi-level pick modules with specialized levels or entire specialized pick modules set up to handle a specific type of product or configured for a specific type of rack. In other situations, companies start with a smaller, pilot pick module concept to gain confidence and proof of the productivity and efficiency benefits.
