At Staci Americas, we are committed to staying at the forefront of logistics innovation. Technology plays an essential role in driving efficiency, improving accuracy and optimizing processes across our fulfillment operations. As we continue to grow, it's crucial that each of us understands how these advancements directly impact our day-to-day work and contribute to the overall success of our team.

Read on to learn about some key technologies that are shaping the future of logistics at Staci Americas:

 

1. Goods-to-Person Robotics: Streamlining Fulfillment

Goods-to-person (GTP) robotics are revolutionizing how we process orders in our fulfillment centers. Instead of employees walking long distances to pick items, these robots bring the products directly to the pickers. This significantly reduces walking time and increases picking efficiency.

How It Impacts Your Work: By minimizing manual movement, GTP robots enable faster and more accurate order fulfillment. This innovation allows you to focus on higher-value tasks while reducing physical strain, leading to a more efficient and ergonomic work environment.

 

2. Pick-to-Light Technology: Enhancing Accuracy

Pick-to-light systems use lights and displays to guide pickers to the correct items and quantities for each order. The system illuminates the specific location of the item to be picked and provides a clear visual prompt for the quantity, helping to reduce picking errors.
