Pick to Light for kitting manufacturing

LP Pick-to-Light for Lean Manufacturing Environments.

Lightning Pick Technologies’ LP Pick-to-Light solution is ideal for continuous improvement environments by reducing errors and defects in parts and components handling processes. The light-directed methodology is an effective poka-yoke (error proofing) device by directing operators to the correct parts and quantity of each required for the active Bill of Materials. The Lightning Pick methodology also supports kaizen events by eliminating wasted touches common to paper-based material handling approaches.

LP Pick-to-Light is used in many mini markets, supermarkets, warehouses and other dedicated parts storage areas where operators are kitting, sequencing or picking parts for the production line. Lightning Pick optimizes Just in Time and pull production processes so the right parts are delivered at the right time, build after build. As a result our manufacturing customers have reduced downtime costs associated with defects, stoppage and re-work to improve overall process efficiency.

LP Pick-to-Light can be fully integrated into any MRP, MES, ERP, WMS or internally developed host system. Lightning Pick does offer the option of being installed as an independent, stand alone product in which Bills of Material, kits or recipes can be entered, maintained and used to control the light-directed activity.

"Space consideration was a key factor for this project. Being able to consolidate several pick lines into one with Lightning Pick, we use half the space of our former layout.

By using Lightning Pick we streamlined our process and increased throughput direct to the shipping dock. Now that same personnel once dedicated to picking can be applied in other important areas as well."
