Horizontal Carousels Pod
Picking
Horizontal carousels are typically grouped in two to four machines with a
single operator. These arrays are sometimes referred to a pod. The
horizontal carousels may be serviced in a 'round
robin' fashion allowing the machines to preposition to their next location
while other horizontal
carousels are being picked.
With the use of horizontal carousels, which bring the part to the man, eliminating the walking of aisles,
improvements on pick rates as high as ten fold have been achieved! Other
benefits include additional security and increased pick accuracy through
visual aides integrated within the pod.
Perhaps no other
engineers have more experience with horizontal carousels than ours!
