What does pick to light mean?
Pick to light is a technology where light indicators in different colors show which item to pick, and how many to pick. The system handles most of the work itself after the process has started. Quality assurance is obtained by acknowledging a process step with the activation of a button or a sensor for each pick. Since the system is digital, no picking lists need to be used, enabling the operator to use both hands during picking.
