Whether barcode scanner, RFID scanner or mobile computer: Mobile data entry devices and scanners make picking in retail a popular task for your employees. Because once they are familiar with the scanner or handheld terminals, practically no more errors can occur during picking. With the help of automation and prioritization of goods, the picking performance of your employees is effectively increased. The handy scanners score particularly well with their speed of data capture and ease of operation. Thanks to the high time savings in the picking process, they enable you and your employees to focus more strongly on customer service again at the point of sale. All the important data for this is available in real time thanks to mobile data capture.
Making complicated things simple: When goods need to be picked, the right technology should be available - from handheld scanners to operating systems. Outdated concepts such as pen and list and the manual transfer of data to Excel lists on the computer or ERP system are too prone to error. In addition, unnecessarily long picking processes result in "blocked" employees who are missing out on customer service at the POS. The assembly of goods must therefore be faster on the one hand and less prone to human error on the other. So that and your employees can focus on the real big challenge in retail: Providing high quality customer service to attract new customers and retain existing ones. In addition, more precise picking can enable data-driven changes in various areas - such as marketing decisions or process optimization in the warehouse.
The solution for more efficient picking is devices for mobile data capture. There are three possible types: mobile computers with integrated scanners, barcode scanners or RFID scanners - each with a stable operating system. Depending on the requirements in the different areas of application of the mobile data capture devices, such as the type of your products or the structure of your warehouse, one solution is better suited than the other. For example, our mobile computers have a keyboard, display or touchscreen, as well as an integrated scanner and are Internet-enabled. This allows each picker to communicate in real time with your warehouse management software, e.g. to directly acknowledge the respective order items or report shortages. In addition, the picker is shown all important information about his order - such as article, quantity and storage location - on the handheld. Our mobile computers and barcode scanners are characterized by their high level of robustness and reliable, fast scanning of codes - even those that are difficult to read. Mobile computers and barcode scanners are particularly suitable for small order picking, while RFID scanners are the first choice for larger order picking volumes. The latter dispense with the use of barcodes and instead scan individual rewritable transponders on the goods by frequency. These state-of-the-art scanners can register up to 700 items per minute, significantly speeding up the picking process. At the same time, they are in no way inferior to our data capture devices in terms of network, robustness and user-friendliness.
Mobile data collection creates optimal conditions in your warehouse for efficient picking. The advantages of our rugged terminals and RFID scanners for mobile data collection in retail are therefore quite clear:
- Significantly faster picking
- Error prevention during picking
- More time for customer service
- No need for subsequent stock reconciliation
- Backup of all data in the backend system
- Data in real time
- Intuitive operation and ergonomic design
- Secure recognition of poorly readable barcodes
- Perfect concept for click-and-collect orders
- Robust hardware with ergonomic design
