DPS that achieved a shortened walking route by combining conveyors

Simple tasks for everyone! Work efficiency increased by 17% + reduction in workforce

Background of the implementation

There was a need to shorten the walking distance for workers.

The large number of items and varying shipping frequencies for each product have resulted in increased walking distances for workers, hindering productivity improvements.

There was a need to realize a smart system that does not rely on veteran workers.

It was urgent to replace the shopping-style operation using picking lists and build a system that allows anyone to perform tasks easily.

There was an urgent need to achieve a reduction in the workforce.

There were many workers involved in picking operations, and there was a need to achieve proper work allocation and multitasking in the operations.

The deciding factor for implementation

High return on investment through increased productivity and reduction in personnel.

Divided the sorting area into A, B, and C items, creating a simple workflow using digital displays. Additionally, combined with conveyors to shorten walking paths.

Impact after implementation

Increased work efficiency through shortened walking routes.

Logistics analysis was conducted based on the hit rate of products, and storage areas were divided into A, B, and C products. By using conveyors for operations, walking routes were shortened, resulting in a 17% increase in work efficiency compared to before.

A simple system that is friendly to workers.

A simple system where workers follow instructions from the display, allowing for a picking system that is easy for anyone to use and friendly to workers.
