Commissioning is a central element of internal material flow systems. Within a company, it forms the interface to the customer (distribution) or provides the parts or components as required for subsequent production processes (production supply). There are numerous options for the design of order picking systems, which must be taken into account during planning. Outstanding aspects for the design of a system are the reaction time and the costs. The cost aspect in particular is of great importance nowadays, as order picking is still characterised by a large proportion of manual processes.
The book takes into account existing theories and guidelines on this topic, but expands on them with new insights into the structuring, labelling and calculations of order picking systems, thus providing a comprehensive insight. The book is aimed at students and teachers who have a basic knowledge of logistics issues. It supports the reader with numerous illustrations and structured overviews that simplify familiarisation with the subject matter. Various examples round off the scope of the book and enable the reader to reflect on the knowledge learnt using these practical case descriptions.
