Software streamlines storage and retrieval

Modern Machine Shop, May, 2002 by Shauna R. Pope

The new FastPic Parts PL software is said to provide a new approach to improving employee productivity and stock picking accuracy.

The software gives operators of automated storage and retrieval systems the capability to enter a part number into the system and have the stored items automatically delivered to them. It is designed to be installed quickly and cost effectively using an installation wizard to create a basic parts inventory by stocking keeping unit (SKU) number and quantity, the company says. The software can also interface to host systems such as WMS, LESA, ERP and industry-specific parts systems.

According to the company, This software requires only minimal operator training. Its intuitive graphical interface guides operators through system operation, assuring improved productivity and higher levels of picking accuracy, according to the company. Easy-to-use supervisory reports are said to offer enhanced inventory control and analysis. FastPic PL can be upgraded as storage and retrieval requirements grow.
