Continuous-Time Models for Estimating Picker Blocking in Order-Picking-Systems
Congestion is a problem in order-picking-systems. We developed CTMC models to represent picker blocking in cases including pickers with different exponentially distributed picking times and k pickers, for narrow and wide aisle systems. The focus was not to produce an all-inclusive model, but to generate models that give designers insight of the system, allowing them to reduce the number of vari...
متن کاملOrder Batching in a Bucket Brigades Order Picking System with Consideration of Picker Blocking
A bucket brigade strategy allows workloads in warehouses to be distributed with a minimal level of managerial planning and oversight. However, the variability and uncertainty of the pick locations within a particular order or batch often results in picker blocking and subsequent losses in productivity. This study formulates an order batching model for robust blocking control of dynamic bucket b...
متن کاملA note on picker blocking models in a parallel-aisle order picking system
This note develops analytical picker blocking models to simply and accurately assess picker blocking in parallel-aisle order picking systems when multiple picks occur at a pick point. The Markov chain-based models characterize the two bounding walking speeds for modeling picker movement: unit walk-time and instantaneous walk-time. The unit-walk time model has a state space transition matrix tha...
متن کاملAnalysis of Picker Blocking in Narrow-aisle Batch Picking
This study analyzes impacts by batch picking on picker blocking in narrow-aisle order picking, and determines appropriate batch formations for a better order picking throughput. We present multiple-pick analytical models to offer insights about picker blocking in batch picking. Several simulation studies over a variety of batching situations scrutinize order batching situations which give throu...
