Voice Picking

Each operator is equipped with a mobile device or voice dedicated terminal, and a headset with microphone. A wired or wireless barcode scanner can be added to increase accuracy and productivity. Easy-to-understand voice prompts direct operators to locations and instruct them as to what task needs to be performed. Multi-modal feedback adds operational flexibility, either via an operator's voice, a barcode scan or direct text entry.

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.
