- Voice Picking
What is Voice Picking? Voice Picking is a technology-based system that vocally communicates instructions during the process to workers or other actors in supply chain operations. Operators are guided through voice commands, reducing errors, increasing efficiency and enabling faster processing. How Does Voice Picking Work? [#01] Start: The voice picking system is activated by a start command that signals the start of operations. This command is usually given by a worker or operator. Voice Recognition: The system detects and processes the operator's voice using a voice recognition technology. The operator can transmit predefined commands or order information to the system by voice. Processing Commands: The voice picking system processes the commands or orders given by the operator. This process is carried out by a special software or algorithm in the system. Directions and Instructions: The system guides the worker or operator by giving voice instructions to the worker or operator during the process. For example, it may indicate where to buy a product, how much to buy, or which basket to put it in. Verification and Confirmation: After the operator carries out the instructions given, the system usually requests a feedback to verify the action. Once the operator confirms that it has completed correctly, the system moves on to the next step. Order Completion: The system notifies the operator when all commands are completed or the order needs to be collected. The operator packages and prepares the products or materials. Data Recording and Reporting: The voice collection system records the entire process and stores the data. This can be used for inventory tracking, error tracking and reporting. How to Set Up a Voice Picking System? Our installation of Voice Picking System, It involves almost the same stages as the installation of the Pick-to-Light System. Needs analysis is made. It is decided at which points the system will serve and at what depth it will be used. Hardware compatible with the ERP owned by the business is selected. Since the system is wireless, it is checked that data transfer is sufficient at every point Since the system works with voice communication, sound environments can be identified and removed or silenced. Software integration of ERP and Voice Collection System is made Lights and/or signs are placed Personnel are trained Various tests are performed starting from plot areas As you ensure that the process is working properly, the working area is expanded. And finally the installation is completed. Benefits of Voice Picking The employee can work faster because his hands are free Security increases as awareness of the surroundings increases Since less cable link network is required Since the system works completely electronically, reporting is much faster Risks of Voice Picking Since it works with voice commands, it may not be fully understood how accurately operations such as correction and undo are performed. This may lead to incorrect operations Following and trying to understand voice commands can cause stress in new users. Since it is a relatively high-tech product, the initial investment cost may be high depending on the installation.

- RFID - Radio Frequency Identification
What is RFID? RFID is a wireless technology used to uniquely and automatically identify and track objects. This system usually consists of an RFID tag (transponder) and a reader. The label transmits information such as EPC Electronic Product Code to the reader via radio waves. This information can be used for a variety of purposes, such as inventory tracking, asset management or security. [#01 & #02] Barcode or Unlike QR Codes, the reader does not need to see it optically. RFIDs are generally divided into two main groups: Passive (without its own power supply) and Active (with battery). There are also types that allow reading from various wavelengths and distances. NFCs are, in a sense, considered a subgroup of RFIDs. Installation and maintenance of RFID systems require a significant financial investment. Startup costs can be high for small and medium-sized businesses. POS + Barcode & QR Code & RFID => Paperless warehousing RFID History [#01 & #02 & #03] The origins of RFID, like many other technologies and developments, are based on the defense industry. The IFF - Identify Friend or Foe system, developed by the British in the early 1940s, was used to detect enemy aircraft from friendly aircraft. was used to differentiate. This system relied on transponders placed on an aircraft to identify the aircraft by responding to radar signals. This is a fundamental principle of modern RFID technology. However, commercial applications for civilian use of RFID were not developed until the 1960s and 1970s.

- Barcode / Barcode
What is Barcode? Barcode is an optical coding system developed for product tracking and information sharing, where each line and interval has a different meaning. Barcode system, UPC-A (Universal Product Code) norm 13 characters with GTIN (formerly EAN13 - European Article Numbering) norm Can store information. History of Barcode The first barcode system began to be used in 1952. With the widespread use of automation systems, they began to be used in product tracking and inventory control. Barcodes have now begun to be replaced by QR Codes / QR Codes due to reasons such as developing technology, increasing product diversity, and expanding usage area. Solutions brought by Barcode One of the biggest problems encountered in warehouse management is that the locations of the materials entered/exited cannot be accurately entered into the system. Materials subjected to assembly, separation (handling) and shelving in the warehouse can be placed in different locations or in different places in the same location due to space constraints. As entry and exit transactions increase, mistakes may be made due to operator or warehouseman error/forgetfulness. These errors, which can be noticed late, can lead to overstock because the material related to the sequence path is thought to be out of stock, and can lead to work delays because it is thought to be in stock. Thanks to BarCode applications, delays and errors are minimized. This also provides economy in terms of labor. In this system; A code label is attached to each new incoming material. If there is a code label on the incoming material, this label is tried to be used. Articles on Coding Systems Why and How to use the Material Code?

- Output Prioritization: FIFO - LIFO - FEFO
What is Output Prioritization? Output prioritization is an output systematic that is decided on a product basis, taking into account constraints such as the product's content, lifespan, and storage system. The 3 Types of Output Prioritization are detailed below. FIFO - First In First Out In this system, which is the most general type of use, the oldest products are sold first. Thus, the risk of deterioration and loss of value is reduced. These products generally need to be stocked regularly. Photo: https:/ /articles.cyzerg.com/warehouse-inventory-management-techniques-to-increase-productivity LIFO - Last In First Out It is a system that is mostly used in products that do not pose a risk of deterioration or loss of value, such as aggregate, filling material or concrete blocks, due to the nature of the business. Since these types of products are generally stocked on top of each other, FIFO application is almost impossible. Photo: https://www.betonvecimento.com /sectoral/ready-mixed-concrete-aggregate FEFO - First Expired First Out It is an inventory management system used especially in areas where the lifespan of products is of primary importance, such as the food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. In addition to the stocking order for these types of products, stocking conditions such as temperature and humidity are also of great importance. Photo: https://www.alloga-network.com /pharmaceutical-warehousing Output Prioritization Systems Comparison: FIFO vs LIFO vs FEFO In addition, an accounting recording system must be created for each exit prioritization (FIFI, LIFO, FEFO). For this reason, it is necessary to be precise in order to enter the records according to this order.

- Two-Bin System / Two-Bin System
What is Two-bin System? Two-bin System, Kanban Card The visual used with Minimum Stock is the inventory management system. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you read the following 2 articles first; Minimum Stock Kanban Card In the Two-Bin System, also known as the Two-Bin System, the word box essentially refers to the block material. The important thing here is that each block is stocked inseparably from each other. This can be done with a stretch band or a strip band. The important thing is that the order blocks are together. Two-Bin System is generally more useful for materials that are small in size and can be carried by hand. As the size of the material increases, the efficiency of the Two-Bin System decreases. How to Install Two-Bin System and How Does It Work? Minimum Stock quantities are determined for each unique product. p> Boxes/volumes are prepared on the basis of determined order blocks. A Kanban Card is placed on each box/volume. The boxes are placed one after the other, not side by side, so that one cannot be touched before the other is finished (Otherwise the system will crash). A Kanban Card box is placed at one or more points for Kanban Cards. When each box is finished, the Kanban Card of the relevant box is placed in the Kanban Card box.
