Pcdata USA was recently featured in Snack Food and Wholesale Bakery magazine in an article entitled, “Driven to be Competitive,” authored by Neal Lorenzi. “Delivering product on time and in good condition is imperative in the competitive bakery and snack food markets. Although many barriers stand in the way of this from occurring, new fleet-management tools are available to help food producers do just that. Route-planning systems can be linked to vehicle-tracking technology to streamline logistics,” reported Lorenzi. Lorenzi noted that more food manufacturing plants are introducing automation to the order fulfillment and shipping areas of the warehouse. According to Marc Braun, president of Pcdata USA, solutions such as PCdata USA’s Distrib Pick-to-Light can improve fleet management. By showing the real-time status of order fulfillment, errors are avoided and the right truck shipments are scheduled. “Pcdata USA also offers a Dock Manager solution, designed to ensure that the right products get loaded onto the right trucks. Auto-focus scanners, mounted at the doors, monitor products being moved into the trucks. If the wrong stack is loaded, an audiovisual alarm alerts the operator and supervisor,” wrote Lorenzi. Braun explained, “At the time of wrapping the truck for departure, Dock Manager shows the supervisor whether a product is still missing for the drop point(s) for that particular truck. When the vehicle leaves, the receiving facility is notified of the truck content and delivery schedule. This reduces shipping errors and maximizes truckloads.” Pcdata USA (www.pcdatausa.com) is a global logistics systems leader for supply chain automation. With more than six hundred systems successfully installed in more than thirty countries worldwide, Pcdata USA offers affordable both out-of-the-box and customized warehouse optimization specializing in Warehouse Management System (WMS) especially developed for Industrial Bakeries.

Pcdata USA’s Put-to-Light is a paperless dispatch system especially developed for an environment where a large range of products needs to be dispatched in a short time, for example perishable goods. In Distrib Put-to-Light products are sorted to customer locations, this makes this application suitable for "daily fresh" products, and environments where product availability versus delivery time is uncertain.

The new PickCart immediately increases in productivity according to Pcdata USA. Antonio Rodrigues, a senior manager at Pcdata USA, based in East Granby, Connecticut, suggested, “PickCart has no complex menus, no difficult voice commands, no triggers to learn, no complex picking lists to decipher. This means your employees start gaining efficiencies quickly, and temporary staff will take minutes to train, increasing your operational flexibility.” Unlike any other order picking technologies, Pcdata USA’s PickCart is designed to pick multiple orders in one go around the warehouse.

Pcdata USA offers unique solutions for distribution centers facing rapid SKU velocity. The hybrid Pick-To-Light is based on SKU velocity. When SKU is properly analyzed Pcdata USA’s Pick-To-Light (PTL) is a tool that is often overlooked in the search for warehouse technology and can be over 30% more effective than rival order pick methods. In high density unit picking environments for example, PTL is by far the most efficient picking solution available, eliminating walking time and producing the most intensive picking environment possible. In a standard warehouse environment it is typical that 20% of the products represent 80% of the revenues, work and costs. In such a typical 80/20 environment companies can achieve 80% of savings by investing only 20% of the total costs.

Material handling can constitute as much as 50 percent of total product cost and effective handling of materials can help minimize this cost. When handling costs are reduced the overall unit cost is reduced as a direct result. Loss of Material Handling Equipment (MHE) is probably one of the most pressing issues facing the material handling industry today. Millions worth of dollars are lost in baskets trays and racks. Most tracking solutions turn out to be too expensive, only because there are so many units that need tracking. As is the case with most breakthrough solutions, Pcdata USA’s MHE tracking solution is a spinoff from solving a related, but different problem.

Assembly processes often involve the collation of several materials or components into a single batch prior to the manufacturing or construction process. Pcdata USA has years of experience in deploying pre-assembly systems where Pick To Light can be used to pick the correct components in the fastest, most accurate way possible, reducing stoppages and lost time in the rest of the assembly process.
