Pick / Put to light

Put to Light and Pick by Light are semi-automated systems specially designed to increase the speed and efficiency of your warehouse picking systems. For storage, Put to Light system is used and for retrieval, pick by light system is used. They consist of a light or lamp mounted at the face of every storage location. No matter what kind of racks/shelves you have installed in your warehouse, the PTL system seamlessly fits with any storage arrangement.

There is a control unit and a display unit in this system. The control unit is managed by a software with integrated network. The software manages all the SKUs and lights up the respective rack compartments to be picked. The LED display shows how many items need to be picked up.

The system features two buttons through which the user can change the number of items to be picked according to their availability. One of the advantages of this PTL system is the acknowledgement button that, when pressed, confirms that the items have been picked up successfully.

They optimise your picking/storing operations and hardly leave any room for errors that would otherwise be inevitable. Not only that, the PTL system saves a surprising amount of time and energy which are the most crucial resource for any business.

PTL also saves manpower so that it can be put to a better use. All in all, these systems are highly productive, and they speed up the entire storage/retrieval process considerably.
