What is a Warehouse Management System?

Warehouse Management System (WMS) is a software application designed to oversee and optimize various warehouse processes, ranging from inventory management to order fulfillment. This systems employ advanced algorithms and technologies to manage tasks such as receiving, storing, picking, packing, and shipping goods in the most efficient manner possible.

Key Features of WMS:

• Inventory Management: by provides real-time visibility into inventory levels, ensuring accurate tracking of stock, enables businesses to make informed decisions regarding restocking, reducing overstocking or out of stock.
• Order Fulfillment: by identifying the most efficient picking routes, ensuring that workers pick items in the shortest possible time while minimizing travel distance.
• Space Utilization: assists in effective space allocation within the warehouse by considering the size, weight, and demand of products
• Accuracy and Reduced Errors: Automated data capture and barcode scanning minimize manual data entry errors then enhance order accuracy and reduces the chances of shipping incorrect items.
• Labor Efficiency: With optimized processes and better resource allocation, WMS reduces the need for manual intervention, allowing employees to focus on value-added tasks rather than mundane activities.
• Real-time Tracking: WMS provides real-time updates on inventory movements, order statuses, and shipping information, offering transparency throughout the supply chain.
• Returns Management: Handling returns can be a complex process, but WMS simplifies it by automating the returns workflow, ensuring items are properly categorized, processed, and restocked.

The ACRs are automated storage and retrieval systems designed and developed specifically to handle cases. They include proprietary HAIPICK robots and intelligent software system HAIQ. The HAIPICK robots do the picking, sorting, and transport between shelves and workstations. HAIQ system is the central command for HAIPICK robots, conveyor belts, loading and unloading workstations and other devices including robotic arms, AGVs or AMRs made by others.

Key benefits from systems:

• Optimize warehouse space: The customizable storage solution can maximize the use of the existing space, increase the storage capacity per unit area and lower the cost of land use, with up to 95% of the vertical space put in use and the storage density increased by 80% – 400%.
• Increase accurate and efficient: Powered by AI algorithms, the ACR systems boosts totes picking accuracy to 99.99%, improving accuracy and efficiency of order fulfillment.
• Reduce labor cost by improving employees’ efficiency by 3-4 times.
• Flexible solution allows easy expansion of business: As e-commerce booms, some 3PL companies see capacity of their original facilities reaching a limit. With ACR systems, the expansion of warehouse can be realized flexibly and agilely. In terms of compatibility, the combination of the robots, the HAIQ system can ensure the flow of information between multiple devices. Users can deploy ACR systems easily according to their changing business needs, without causing disruptions to operation.

Currently, 3PL, e-commerce, apparel, retail, grocery, automotive & manufacturing, electronics, and pharmaceutical industries are already turning to ACR to enhance and accelerate their operations.

ACR solutions are helping warehousing, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities worldwide in over 30 countries advance their operations. Below are some reference:

Goods-to-person is a solution that use a self-guided vehicle AMR to transport materials, goods, or products in a manufacturing or warehouse. It can be programmed to perform a variety of tasks, such as transporting materials between different locations within a warehouse, picking up and delivering products to assembly lines, or moving finished goods to a shipping area, loading and unloading materials from conveyor systems.

Some of the advantages of solution:

• Increased Efficiency: AMRs can operate 24/7 and can be programmed to perform tasks faster than human operators. This can lead to increased productivity and throughput.
• Improved Safety: AMRs are designed with safety in mind and are equipped with sensors that can detect obstacles and stop the vehicle to prevent collisions. This can reduce the risk of accidents and injuries in the workplace
• Reduced Labor Costs: By using AMRs, companies can reduce the need for human operators, which can lead to cost savings over time.
• Digitalize the inventory information and track the whole process
• Intelligent Maintenance: The robot control system regularly sends notifications of maintenance information and reminds the staff to do regular maintenance on the AMRs, which is easy and convenient.
