In a method for storing and picking stackable article carriers in an order fulfillment facility, in which transport loading aids are transported between a loading station with an automatically operated loading device, a storage zone and a removal station with an automatically operated unloading device by autonomously moveable, driverless transport vehicles, the transport loading aids are loaded with article carrier stacks in the loading station and the article carrier stacks are discharged from the transport loading aids in the unloading station. Subsequently, the article carriers for a picking order are reloaded onto one or multiple target loading aids. Further, an order fulfillment facility stores and stackable article carriers.

Method and order-picking storage facility for storing and order-picking articles

A picking system for picking goods includes a goods acceptance zone, a goods transfer zone, a storage zone, a storage conveying device or devices, an order processing computer for registering a picking order and a removal conveying device or devices, wherein the storage conveying device or devices and/or the removal conveying device or devices have autonomous conveying vehicles for transporting the goods/ordered goods on a travel surface. The travel surface is subdivided into multiple travel surface segments, and driving movements are coordinated so that at least 90% of each of the driving movements in the travel surface segments is carried out by a closed group of autonomous conveying vehicles. Further, a method operates the picking system.

Method and picking system with improved operation of autonomous conveying vehicles

The invention relates to a picking system () for picking goods (), comprising a goods acceptance zone (A), a goods transfer zone (D, D), a storage zone (B. . . B), (a) storage conveying device(s) (), an order processing computer for registering a picking order and (a) removal conveying device(s) (), wherein the storage conveying device(s) () and/or the removal conveying device(s) () has/have a plurality of autonomous conveying vehicles () for transporting the goods ()/ordered goods () on a travel surface. The travel surface is subdivided into multiple travel surface segments (E. . . E), and driving movements are co-ordinated so that at least 90% of each of the driving movements in the travel surface segments (E. . . E) is carried out by a closed group of autonomous conveying vehicles (). The invention further relates to a method for operating the picking system ().

In a method and arrangement for distributing articles, an order management system acquires an order for delivering articles, the articles to be delivered are transferred from an article store and the articles included in an order are order-picked into at least one mobile shelf unit shelf compartment. The mobile shelf unit is subsequently transported to a dispensing station including a first article storage region separated by a first separating wall and a customer access region and is brought into a handover position, in which the at least one shelf compartment is accessible via a closeable opening in the first separating wall. When an article dispensing system receives a request for picking up the articles by a person or a machine associated therewith, it uncovers the closeable opening if authorization exists for picking up the articles. Alternatively a loadings robot can load the articles to be delivered into the machine.
