The conveying device of the first conveying system with its end located downstream in a first conveying direction is arranged spaced in vertical direction apart from the banding support and above the banding support. A picking system has such an article bundling device and a method operates such an article bundling device.

A goods-to-person picking station and method of picking goods from a product container and placing the goods in at least one order container includes a product container-handling mechanism and at least one order container-handling mechanism juxtaposed with the product container-handling mechanism. The product container-handling mechanism supplies a product container to a pick area. The at least one order container-handling mechanism supplies at least one order container to the pick area. In this manner, an operator can pick goods from a product container at the pick area and place the goods selectively to the at least one order container at the pick area. The product container-handling mechanism includes a product container elevator assembly and a product container extractor assembly. The elevator assembly elevates a product container from the feed area to the pick area. The extractor assembly transfers a product container from the pick area. The elevator assembly and the extractor assembly may be operated from a common drive assembly.
