Pick to Light

Your logistics operations never stop, especially when you’re handling multiple orders. Pick-to-light makes warehouse workers’ jobs easier, faster, and more enjoyable. Thanks to visual instructions, they can pick, sort, and consolidate with focus, without having to switch back and forth between packing slips or order lines. This allows you to work more efficiently and with fewer errors.

What is pick-to-light?

Monta’s pick-to-light system is unique, practical, and error-free.

What is pick to light?

Pick-to-light is a system in which picking locations are equipped with an electronic display. A lit light on the display indicates the picking locations that an order picker must visit. The display also shows a number indicating the quantity of items to be picked. These visual instructions allow employees to focus on picking, sorting, and consolidating without having to switch back and forth between packing slips and item information. Thanks to these instructions, it’s virtually impossible to pick orders incorrectly.

A unique system, developed based on practical experience.
Monta develops its pick-to-light system entirely in-house, based on practical experience and specific customer needs. For example, the system has been further developed for PinkGellac, which handles small, rapidly rotating items. This practical approach makes Monta’s solution unique in the market.

7 Key Focus Areas of MontaWMS

Orders are partially fulfilled using pick-to-light, with the remainder using relay picking in the warehouse.

Pick to Light

Combining pick to light with bulk storage? Here's how it works!

In addition to orders that you can pick entirely in the pick-to-light zone, there may be orders that cannot be picked entirely in the pick-to-light zone. For example, because not all items in that order are available in the pick-to-light system.

This results in a mix of order lines that are and are not in the system. A portion of the orders is stored in bulk in the warehouse. In Monta’s WMS, it is possible to use relay picking to first pick the portion of the order in the pick-to-light system and then complete the rest of the order in the rest of the warehouse.

Pick to Light

Customized pick to light systems for your products

For each product type, it is possible to customize the pick-to-light system. Small products, such as cosmetics, require a different layout than, for example, clothing items. After conducting an on-site assessment and analyzing order data, we provide tailored recommendations. We take into account the number of lights, the size of the bins, replenishment options, and more.

Optimize your warehouse layout with the heat map
. The heat map in your MontaPortal lets you see at a glance which locations are picked frequently or infrequently. You can use the color coding to logically group popular picking locations. This makes your warehouse even more efficient.

For whom is pick to light most suitable?

The system is particularly well-suited for processing very small products at a high throughput rate. Thanks to the system’s simplicity, employees can get up to speed quickly, and the margin for error is significantly reduced.

Get Started Quickly with Paperless Picking
The pick-to-light system is intuitive and reduces the risk of errors. Thanks to the clear displays, warehouse staff can see at a glance where the next pick is located. The system is completely paperless and helps create a calm and organized workspace. You’ll achieve the greatest efficiency gains when you combine pick-to-light with put-to-light, smart walking routes, batch picking, and multi-order picking.
