If you have been in the warehousing or distribution for any amount of time, you will order warehouse carts such as those you see in the image above. There is new technology available to change the ordinary warehouse cart into a powered workstation.
What has not changed is the number of steps the average person takes per hour: 105 steps per minute, 6300 per hour or 50,400 steps in eight hours. We recently showed how saving six minutes can turn into $5,000 by eliminating wasted steps by adding portable power to carts.
Warehouse carts with portable power can be used for:
- Shipping/Receiving
- Cross Docking
- Inventory Management
- Cycle/Piece Counting
- Order Fulfillment
- RFID Tagging
- Asset Tracking
Here is why hundreds of companies have upgraded from old stand-up workstations to mobile carts with portable power:
- Productivity
Achieve the same amount of volume with fewer pieces of equipment (i.e. printers, computers, etc.) by converting to mobile workstations. (Also known as carts with portable power) - Instant Gratification
Quickly obtain measurable productivity gains without months of planning and implementation. As workstations are delivered, they can be on the floor the same day.
-
Improving Processes
The Portable Power System allows you to fully leverage your wireless facility by cutting the power cords and letting your workstations move to where they are needed - with your people.
-
Enabling People
Operators & managers now have access to data and real-time information anywhere in the facility because they can take their workstation with them.
