AMR-Assisted Order Picking: Models for Picker-to-Parts Systems in a Two-Blocks Warehouse

Abstract: Manual order picking, the process of retrieving stock keeping units from their storage location to fulfil customer orders, is one of the most labour-intensive and costly activity in modern supply chains. To improve the outcome of order picking systems, automated and robotized components are increasingly introduced creating hybrid order picking systems where humans and machines jointly work together. This study focuses on the application of a hybrid picker-to-parts order picking system, in which human operators… Show more

“…In this process, lots of data are generated, which can be analyzed using Data Analytics (DA), thus improving the efficiency of SCM activities [1]. In this regard, previous research has shown that the integration of DA and ML algorithms in SCM can result in a considerable improvement in performance and efficiency in the (SC) [2][3][4]. Still, the application of advanced analytics approaches for addressing different DA problems is limited by several challenges [5,6].…”

“…In addition, owing to the high demand and tight deadlines in the logistics industry, an increasing number of warehouses are adopting autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). In such warehouses, "hybrid picking," in which AMRs and human operators jointly perform picking, has become mainstream and is actively being re-searched [12][14]. However, many warehouses do not introduce AMRs owing to budget and warehouse size, and picking is still largely a manpowered operation.…”
