Introduction video of the case study.
A DPS integrated with box size determination based on volume calculations and an automated conveyor system.
Volume calculation eliminates the need for repacking and additional label issuance after picking.
- Background of the implementation
-
-
Workers need to arrange various sizes of shipping cardboard boxes based on their judgment.
-
The required types of boxes and the necessary quantities for each shipping destination need to be transported automatically.
-
Picking in store number order makes it impossible to adjust the number of workers according to the workload.
-
- Impact after implementation
-
-
By instructing workers based on the results of volume calculation, smooth supply of shipping boxes has become possible.
-
Automatically transporting multiple boxes required for a single destination has eliminated the need for repacking and additional label issuance due to subsequent box changes.
-
By processing stores with larger workloads in the first half and then switching to store number order midway, it became possible to reduce the number of workers in the latter half.
