The Dematic Route Delivery System for Case Pick using Voice-Directed Equipment and pallet trucks is an order fulfillment system for building mixed case pallets. Headsets provide verbal instructions (including location and case pick quantity) to operators who then pick the case(s) from flow racks, pallet racks, or floor locations and transfer them to pallet trucks.

The primary application is for beer, wine, spirits, soft drinks, and food distribution operations that make regular deliveries directly to convenience stores, bars, restaurants, grocery stores schools, hospitals, etc. Other applications include distributors of industrial supplies, healthcare products, and parts for automobile, truck, farm, and construction machinery.

The Route Delivery System for Case Pick using Voice-Directed Equipment has a pre-engineered, standardized design configuration that ensures predictable performance. Here is the general order of how the system functions:

Inbound and Put-away

The WMS host directs receiving and put-away management. Workers place full case pallets in pick locations.

Outbound Order Fulfillment

1. The system fulfills orders depending on the type of order:
   • Layer Picking: Manually operated industrial truck with clamp device, voice directed
   • Case Picking: Pick to pallet via manually operated pallet truck, voice directed
2. Mixed case pallet built for each stop on the route.
3. Delivery trucks loaded in reverse route stop sequence.
