PACKING AND STAGING
Packing and staging are the most hands-on jobs in your warehouse and distribution center’s shipping department. Any distraction or error can lead to an incorrect shipment and dissatisfied customer. To ensure accuracy at this critical point, we have hands-free technology that confirms orders with a quick scan, prints a shipping label with the correct destination, and allows you to continue tracking each package to the right truck.
Using wearable or fixed-mount presentations, workers in the packing and staging area can focus on the task at hand so they can be more productive and accurate.
Capture data from 1D or 2D barcodes and RFID so you can continue to evolve your warehouse operations and ensure compliance and traceability with the right mix of data capture options.
Achieve flawless fulfillment by doing a final check at the end of the line to ensure that each order has been accurately picked, packed, and staged for the right destination.
