FlexTruck Voice

Product catalog summary

Introduction
FlexTruckTM Voice is an advanced system designed to optimize the case picking process in warehouses. It enhances productivity, accuracy, and safety by integrating voice-directed technology and laser-guided pallet trucks.

How it Works

Operators are directed to pick locations via a voice device.
Pallet trucks automatically travel to these locations.
Operators pick cases, and trucks index to the next location automatically.
Completed pallets are delivered to the dock automatically, and the process repeats with a new pallet truck.

Omitted Activities

Manual retrieval of empty pallets.
Frequent stepping on and off pallet trucks.
Manual driving of pallet trucks to pick locations.
Reading pick instructions from paper lists.
Manual movement of completed pallets to shipping.

Operational Flexibility

Operators are decoupled from pallet trucks, allowing for safer and more efficient operations.
The system can operate alongside other vehicles and is easy to implement and expand.

Solution Benefits

Productivity increases by 20-60% compared to manual methods.
Order accuracy improves by 10-50%.
Hands-free and eyes-free operation enhances ergonomics and safety.
