PTL stands for Pick - On - Pick or Automatic Picking System or Electronic Tag Picking System. The electronic tag picking system is mainly used for picking operation. At the same time, using the characteristics of electronic tags, through the corresponding software support, can also help users to achieve many auxiliary management functions.
The advantage of electronic shelf labels for warehousing (PTL)
1) There is no need to print the classification list, thus reducing pre-delivery document processing time and saving paper;
2) Accelerate the pick-up speed: save the time of location search, shorten the walking distance of the pick-up machine, and check the location and goods;
3) Improve the accuracy of delivery: save the time of thinking and judgment, and confirm the delivery quantity; Reduce the labor intensity of the selection, employees can always maintain high efficiency;
4) Improve picking efficiency and reduce picking costs: unskilled personnel in warehouses and products can also engage in picking, reducing training and management costs; By improving the picking efficiency, the number of picking personnel is reduced.
5) Enhance the competitive advantage of the enterprise: by using the high efficiency of PTL, the enterprise can deal with the workload of the past several times, shorten the delivery time, improve the accuracy of picking goods, and reduce the return and complaint caused by inaccurate delivery;
Warehousing electronic shelf labels (PTL) application scenarios
After centrally picking multiple shipping orders, PTL can replace a second sorting and tallying operation.
1) In B2C secondary classification, PTL classification wall is used. Sorter scans the sorting order number or wave order number, binds the current sorting wall to the wave order or wave sorting order, and then scans the SKU. The electronic label corresponding to the order on the sorting wall will light up and prompt operator B to put the SKU in the warehouse with lights. According to the color of the indicator light of the sorting position, we can know whether the order corresponds to the sorting position and has been sorted.
2) PTL sorting cabinet for B2B secondary sorting. Sorters scan B2B wave orders or sorting lists, bind them to sorting cabinets, and then scan SKUs that have been unloaded from the shelves. The electronic tag on the sorting cabinet with the SKU delivery order will light up and show the quantity of goods in the file. Sorting machine counts the corresponding number of SKUs and puts them into the corresponding delivery order sorting position. According to the color of the light on the sorting cabinet, we can know whether the delivery order at the current sorting position has been sorted.
3) During the PTL counting, the tallyman chooses the counting type, scans the SKU according to the channel, warehouse area, model, etc., and the electronic label will light up to indicate which counting position the SKU is currently scanned at, thus saving the tallyman's time to find the position and proofread on the shelf.
