Advantages of Voice Picking System Technology

Voice picking systems deliver many advantages to warehouse distribution centers and order fulfillment operations with automated warehouse technologies. Voice picking technology allows operators to pick items with hands free scanning while directed through the most optimized path for maximum efficiency. With automatic scanning and confirmation of accurate picks, voice picking not only improves picking productivity but also improves quality while reducing labor hours for quality checks and confirming accuracy.

Voice picking technology delivers a host of valuable advantages which include the following:

Improved Productivity – by reducing the walk path of employees or the travel path for forklifts, picking products has never been more efficient. Voice directions keep operators focused on their path and the next task, interleaving work tasks with programmed packing specifications or work zones.

Accuracy – voice picking with hands free scanning provides a 3 step validation process which is faster than virtually any other system including wireless terminals. Voice picking provides standardized picks while achieving accuracy of 99.99% consistently.

Reducing Training – save time and money with a speaker independent voice engine which requires little to no training. Even seasonal or temporary workers can be up and running in minutes. Voice instructions are clearly understood and easy to hear even in a noisy warehouse.

Efficiency – voice picking significantly increases the speed in which orders are fulfilled, at a proven rate of at least 20% to 30% quicker than mobile screen terminals and 35% faster than paper processes. Voice picking provides the boost to performance and increase in accuracy that deliver significant cost saving efficiencies. Clients enjoy reduced labor expenses, overtime and secondary inspections with more work completed in less time.
