Abstract
An efficient order picking process is required to realize short-term and on-time deliveries in distribution logistics. The selection of a suitable warehouse layout, as well as an efficient picking strategy needs to be dependent on an evaluation of the picking performance. The paper presents a procedure to compare variable layouts of distribution centers regarding their picking performance by using a simple data set. In particular, the implementation of pick face zones is investigated. By picking out of a pick face zone, replenishment for this zone is necessary as an additional process step. This picking strategy is used in practice, but there is no quantitative way to assess the impact on the picking performance depending on the layout of the distribution center. A calculation method to determine the picking performance theoretically is developed by using process times based on movement data and average distances to the layout zones. Furthermore, the comparison of the layouts with pick face zone and without pick face zone is focused, and a description of a procedure to determine the optimal size of the pick face zone is given. A further aspect of developing the procedure model is selecting the articles to be stocked in this zone. For these articles, picking time savings are expected due to shorter distances to the pick face zone. However, the additional replenishment processes must be considered by comparing the picking performance. The developed calculation method compares the picking times between layouts with pick face zone and without pick face zones. A case study in the automotive industry is conducted to apply the generated procedure. The example shows improvements in picking performance through pick face zones. Finally, the presented process model enables the comparison of different layouts regarding their picking performance and provides an approach to determine pick face zones.
