Cincinnati, OH -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/07/2014 -- In the August 4th premiere issue of WCS News, a weekly e-news publication, high volume fulfillment centers were examined. Fulfillment centers efficiently process thousands of orders each day and it takes highly agile software to consistently move the right product at the right time to the right place.

Conveyor management software has evolved to function in today's fast paced environment. The software is capable of quickly analyzing large amounts of data and responding to current floor conditions. It also physically resides within the warehouse to maintain the proper flow of information throughout the entire system. Once the data is downloaded from the remotely located host, the information is locally maintained. This minimizes communication delays that slow down the system. Because sortation devices can move product at speeds exceeding 120 cartons per minute, even short delays can be troublesome. When a lane suddenly stops working or becomes full, the conveyor management software automatically diverts the orders to an alternate location and resolves the issue before a problem occurs.

Tier 1 warehouse control systems solutions are helping because even the best WMS has a brief lag time in transmitting instructions to a high-speed sortation system. There are simply too many warehouses with tens of thousands of decisions being made daily that require split-second timing.
