Premix weigh station

Modules Material Management and Warehouse Management Engine required.

It can be set that inputs are picked by using a scale. The pick tasks generated by allocation of the production order are then handled via the Objective Operator Client (i.s.o. the Objective RF Client).

A typical setup is that full bags are directly picked from the carrier in a specific work zone. One or several full bags are replenished to the weighing floor, where the operator picks the inputs by weighing. The confirmation of the weighings counts as completion of the pick tasks. All the necessary inputs are brought to the WIP-IN location, and can possibly be nested on one carrier. The inputs can then be consumed in a next phase.

The image below gives an example of the phases of a weigh station:
