Robotic Picking Solution Including End-To-End Order Verification

The Challenge

When it comes to prescription medication, order accuracy is of the utmost importance. Even the slightest of errors are not tolerable. This was the case with a leading North American retail pharmacy where SSI SCHAEFER implemented a solution that ensures 100 % accuracy in prescription drugs and order processing. Not only did the retail pharmacy need an error free picking solution, but the company also needed an automated process to perform even during peak volumes with limited labor.

The Solution

Based on a long-standing partnership, SSI SCHAEFER collaborated to develop a highly innovative material handling solution that complies with strict quality requirements as well as legal standards. The stringent requirements were optimized and implemented with a combination of proven storage and picking systems. Futuristic robotics picking and data capture technology along with high-speed A-Frame picking provided the heart of an error-free picking solution. This ensures 100% verification of products while allowing high throughput rates and efficient handling during order peaks.
