Improve operating efficiency in warehousing

Performance with exceptional picking accuracy 

Since 2013, Agilon has offered a top-tier storage solution for production and maintenance supplies, providing advanced monitoring, procurement, and material handling automation. With industry-leading accuracy and efficiency, Agilon helps businesses reduce costs and improve operations. Agilon now incorporates efficient picking capabilities such as light-controlled picking trolleys, tables, and conveyor systems, further enhancing its role in wholesale and distribution logistics while providing scalable solutions for various industries.

Precise and efficient light-controlled parallel and batch-picking for small goods logistics

Parallel picking leverages multiple Agilon robots and access points to maximize picking efficiency. The picker on duty alternates between several adjacent access points while picking, minimizing waiting time in an optimized process.

Parallel picking can achieve up to 270 lines per hour in a system with four access points and two robots. For example, Integrated ERP systems provide work orders, enabling efficient preliminary picking at night.

The batch-picking feature allows users to combine multiple picking lists into one through Agilon's interface. This process enables faster picking of lists containing similar items.

ABB Smart Power unit has successfully implemented the Agilon batch-picking feature.

"Batch picking significantly reduces the time spent on orders, as many of our work orders from Agilon often include the same components. Our warehouse workers have expressed their satisfaction with this feature, appreciating its clarity and ease of use," says Aleksi Laitinen, Planning & Fulfillment Specialist at ABB.

How to enhance efficiency and accuracy

Agilon removes the need for shelf planning and material balancing, allowing warehouse workers to achieve productivity quickly. Picking the correct components optimizes operations and enhances overall efficiency. Integrated scales, barcode readers, and a user-friendly touchscreen ensure accuracy with ease.

24/7 up-to-date warehouse management

Agilon keeps your warehouse organized and fully stocked with real-time updates. A search function and barcodes make it easy to find the right products quickly, and your staff can use the system 24/7.

Complete visibility and effortless integration for efficient materials management

The Agilon portal provides complete visibility into materials management, tracking access details like who took what, when, how much, and for which job or batch. Real-time alerts notify designated people when stock is low, enabling timely reordering and efficient operations. Agilon integrates seamlessly with all major ERP systems, such as SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics, providing accurate and up-to-date stock transaction updates.

Consumption or balance alerts trigger automatic replenishment orders within supplier ERPs like Ahlsell, Etra, Rexel, Würth, Toolpoint, and Onninen. With remote access, you can quickly and easily update reorder points anytime, providing a flexible and efficient approach to managing materials.
