Faster than manual picking solutions

CaddyPick is a semi-automated order picking of mixed case pallets or roll cages applicable in ambient temperature and chilled warehouse zones. CaddyPick is a mixture between a person-to-good and a zone-to-zone picking solution with monorail vehicles – the Caddy – transporting the order unit (pallet or roll cage). The Caddy moves through the picking aisles automatically.

The operator screens are intuitive and easy to use. The weighing system on each Caddy ensures high reliability picking. It checks whether the weight of the picked goods correspond to the weight of the ordered goods on the screen. The order is acknowledged automatically.

The caddy is also capable of storing empty pallets and packing material. Automated stations remove the waste material before the CaddyPick moves to the next order, making it possible to keep your warehouse clean at all times. Full pallet orders are automatically transported to the dispatch area.

It is configured using modules and scalable for small, mid-size and large distribution centers handling up to 300,000 cases per day. Typically used in the retail industry, it also provides for efficient picking, in general, for warehouses with high picking densities.
