Improving picking performance at a large retailer warehouse by combining probabilistic simulation, optimization, and discrete-event simulation

Mario Amorim-Lopes et al.

Summary: Distribution warehouses play a crucial role in supply chains and constitute a significant portion of operating costs. This study introduces a three-step methodology involving probabilistic simulation, optimization, and event-based simulation to analyze layout and storage assignment policies for improved picking performance. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach in enhancing warehouse operations.

Cost and performance comparison for tier-captive and tier-to-tier SBS/RS warehouse configurations

Melis Kucukyasar et al.

Summary: This study compares two configurations of shuttle-based storage and retrieval systems (SBS/RS): SBS/RS with tier-captive shuttles and SBS/RS with tier-to-tier shuttles. The tier-to-tier shuttle design can reduce investment costs and increase shuttle utilization, but also adds operational complexity to the system.

A puzzle-based material handling system for order picking

Mina Shekari Ashgzari et al.

Summary: This study introduces a new automated goods-to-person system based on a grid of unit-sized conveyors, utilizing a negotiation-based decentralized control algorithm for routing. It explores the effects of design parameters on system throughput and finds that throughput can increase by 77% when orders processed by different workstations have no SKU commonality. The level of SKU commonality also plays a role in layout choice.
