Matthews Automation Solutions showcases the latest advances in warehouse execution systems, pick-to-light, put walls, and more at MODEX 2022
Matthews warehouse automation brands deliver innovative material handling solutions and proven results for major corporations worldwide. At MHI-sponsored MODEX 2022, from March 28–31, 2022, Matthews Automation Solutions’ exhibit displays advanced, best-of-breed solutions from Matthews’ three warehouse automation brands—Compass Engineering, Lightning Pick, and Pyramid.
Matthews’ MODEX Booth B5019 will showcase:
Warehouse Execution Software: Booth visitors can learn about NEXUS, Matthews’ next-generation Warehouse Execution System for centralized system control. NEXUS uses real-time data and adaptive learning to make intelligent decisions, balance workflow, eliminate bottlenecks, and increase visibility throughout a distribution center’s operations. The software automates and optimizes key order fulfillment tasks, such as picking, sortation, packing, and finishing.
NEXUS enhances its users’ competitive positions in the e-commerce, omnichannel, subscription box, or third-party logistics marketplaces, just to name a few. A web-based front end and customizable dashboard give full process visibility and management.
Put Wall Sortation: The Matthews booth shows the next wave of light-directed technologies, including a Lightning Pick “put wall” (put-to-light) equipped with the latest advances in bin illumination. Visitors can watch a demonstration of a scan-and-put process sorting batches of mixed-SKU merchandise into individual eCommerce orders. On the other side of the two-sided put wall configuration, operators receive light-directed instructions for pack out and shipping.
A variety of light module types are available including modules with photo-eye sensors that enable operators to confirm a put without pushing a button. Lightning Pick hardware and software allow for myriad customization possibilities that can fit any complex sortation application.
Light-Directed Picking and Assembly: MODEX booth visitors can build a complimentary LED flashlight using Build2Light, an economical pick-to-light solution for the error-proofing of parts picking, kitting, assembly, sequencing, and other material handling operations. Optional image viewer technology adds a monitor mounted in the work area to display assembly instructions, part images, tool tips, and more. Zone picking, cluster picking, and projection picking are also key light-directed technologies to boost the speed and order quality of broken case picking operations.
Autonomous Mobile Robot: Matthews integrates autonomous mobile robotics as part of our holistic view of warehouse automation solutions. Matthews’ robot-assisted picking solution enables operators to concentrate on their main task—picking—without walking long distances or carrying heavy loads. Specialized material handling attachments are shown, each designed to address a specific application and distribution center need.
Software Integration: All Matthews software can be integrated with WMS/MES/ERP systems and material handling equipment, such as conveyors, carts, autonomous mobile robots (AMR), and other robotic systems. Lightning Pick’s software integrates directly with a customer’s existing warehouse management system (WMS) or warehouse execution system (WES), such as NEXUS.
Matthews’ track record includes end customers who are industry leaders in traditional retail and eCommerce for cosmetics, apparel, CPG, e-grocery, meal kits, convenience food, beverages, pet products, health and fitness, personal care, manufacturing, and other many other markets. Matthews also partners with the best integrators and material handling technology providers in the business.
As the consumer fulfillment landscape expands and evolves, Matthews is uniquely positioned to help fulfillment operations boost throughput, capacity, accuracy, and cost-efficiency. Matthews’ approach enables distributors to apply the right combinations of automation and software for their specific challenges today, with the flexibility and scalability to meet future needs.
