DPS (Digital Picking System)

Install electronic labels on the shelf, in principle a place a product in the store (a label represents a product) and one order for a processing unit, the system causes the corresponding label to light up in the order, picking member according to the bright lights and digital display to take out the goods from the shelf. This is called pick to light according to the order.

DPS Implementation
DAS (Digital Assorting System)

Each label represents an order customer or a distribution object. Taking out the total quantity of the ordered goods first, and scan the good's bar code to light up the according PTL label. The distributor can match the goods to the cargo space corresponding to the light or digital display of the PTL label. Put to light wall can be divided fixed type or mobile type.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How does a Pick to Light system improve warehouse efficiency?
By utilizing electronic indicators and digital displays on storage racks, it visually guides operators to the exact product locations and shows precise picking quantities. This greatly reduces searching times, increases accuracy, and improves overall order response speeds.
Q2: Can this system be integrated with existing WMS or ERP software?
Yes. The system's controller service provides a secondary development SDK that uses the standard Web Socket protocol with data transmitted in JSON format, allowing flexible integration with systems like WMS, ERP, or MIS.
Q3: What is the hardware lifetime and durability of the PTL-D4 tag?
The PTL-D4 picking tag features industrial-grade buttons with a mechanical lifespan of up to 20 million operations, making it extremely durable for heavy daily operation in logistics and warehouse environments.
Q4: What is the main difference between DPS (Digital Picking System) and DAS (Digital Assorting System)?
In DPS, electronic labels correspond to items on shelves, prompting operators to pick items to fulfill a specific order. In DAS, electronic labels represent target customers or distribution bins, and operators assort bulk items into corresponding locations based on the illuminated indicators.
Q5: What are the electrical and operating specifications for these tags?
The PTL-D4 tags operate under a working voltage of DC24V with a current draw of 80mA, supporting RGB location indicator lights that can display multiple colors.
