The wall itself consists of multiple compartments outfitted with light indicators, where each compartment represents a customer's order. The operator receives a batch of items in totes or on a pallet, which they then scan individually. Scanned items are placed into the compartments directed by the light system until the order is fulfilled and ready to ship to the customer.
Once orders are completed, packing operators are notified via a light on the opposite side of the wall system. The process is completed once the packer loads the items into boxes, ready for shipment.
Software
To help achieve greater efficiency, Bastian Solutions’ Exacta intralogistics software integrates directly into your existing host systems through Exacta WES or WCS software solutions for important order information. As orders are processed, Exacta sends updates back either in real-time as each pick is completed or in batches as individual orders are completed. Detailed operator metrics are displayed through reporting tools in Exacta.
