Abstract

Pick-To-Light Order Picking System is the operational process when an operator
begins to pick the parts in a sequential manner by which the quantity of the parts is recorded.
The design of an effective hybrid order picking process in an assembly line is assisted by an
intelligent sensing system to improve pick efficiency, accuracy and increase productivity. This
research compares between intelligent hybrid order picking versus order picking with pick
confirmation system at parts assembly line. The results show that by our proposed system with
the elimination of certain steps within the picking process, the better efficiency, accuracy,
fewer miss-picks will occur in the system and the operator can perform more intelligently with
required picking quantities. The development of this system can provide a low-cost solution
with an intelligent order picking system for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and a
fast-moving production assembly line in manufacturing.
