Without a solution in place:
Operations are slower, with fewer picks per hour.
There is higher operator turnover.
Inexperienced operators damage pallets and racking.
Time is spent cleaning up messes from damaged products and broken fire sprinkler heads.
Utilization of higher rack levels or double-deep racking is limited.
Using an HVS camera system:
Operators can their forks and position them accurately in the pallet pocket.
Operators can see if a pallet is broken or turned before lifting it.
Operators can confirm they have the correct pallet before bringing it down.
Bar codes on rack and pallet labels can be scanned on the monitor (some models).
A monitor displaying the forks and load at all times gives operators greater confidence, leading to higher productivity.
Pallet damage decreases when operators can see to ensure there is sufficient clearance to adjacent pallets already on the rack.
