How it Works
A Put-to-Light
system is like a Pick-to-Light
system in reverse. Individual
slot displays tell the operator
where to put items instead
of which items to pick.
In a typical
configuration, the operator
scans a product and then slot
displays with flashing LEDs
at each location indicate which
containers require that product.
A digital readout by each container
indicates how many of that
item to place in the container.
An acknowledgement button lets
the operator confirm each put.
Where it
Fits
A Put-to-Light
system is a good fit where
products are distributed to
regular destinations, such
as a chain of retail stores.
Since it requires one display
per destination instead of
one for every SKU, a relatively
small number of displays can
service a wide range of products.
