Crown’s exclusive QuickPick Rapid boosts order-picking productivity by saving the operator up to five seconds per pick slot.
Crown’s QuickPick Rapid is a game-changing innovation in low-level order picking – a fast-paced, physically demanding job. The technology automates tasks that simplify workflow — saving time, reducing risk and increasing productivity.
In traditional order picking applications, operators constantly return to the compartment to move the truck forward. With QuickPick Rapid, operators maintain a smooth workflow pattern, focusing less on positioning the truck and more on the task of picking.
by eliminating steps in the picking process
by enabling operators to work from behind the truck
with steer correction and obstacle detection
by picking more orders in less time
Increase operator productivity by leveraging a truck that allows the operator to maintain a consistent rhythm and pace, making the most of every second in the picking process.
A typical order picker steps on the operator platform approximately 1,200 times each shift. QuickPick Rapid’s semi-automation eliminates up to 70% of this activity. With the simple press of a button on the wireless remote, the order picker remotely advances the lift truck to the next pick location, allowing the operator to minimize steps and remain in the optimal pick position.
Fewer steps equates to a savings of up to 5 seconds per pick slot. The result is operators can accomplish more picks per hour. While pick rates vary, customers have realized up to 25% increase in productivity within the aisle.
Beyond productivity gains, placing the operator in an ideal pick location behind the pallet truck contributes to increased safety. QuickPick Rapid’s Auto Steer Correction and Obstacle Detection also help reduce damage that can be associated with frequent manual pallet truck movement.
System technology senses the pallet truck’s proximity to objects, such as racking, and automatically adjusts travel path. The result is less damage and fewer picking interruptions.
Integrated lasers are designed to detect obstacles in the pallet truck’s path and automatically apply the brakes to stop travel. The result is less damage to product and racking.
Crown's QuickPick Rapid is an easy-to-use system that includes a Fast-Charge Ring wireless remote and On-Truck Charger for increased operator uptime.
