Abstract
A method for order picking products in an order picking facility having at least one rack for storing products and an assigned warehouse transport system for collecting and storing the products and for transferring the collected products to a transport system, by means of which the collected products are transported to a good-to-picker order picking station, at which the quantity of the collected products that is determined in a picking order is order-picked manually or automatically by a robot, into one order transport unit for each picking order. Product types corresponding to the picking order are collected, order-picked at the good-to-picker order picking station, one after the other, and the remaining products of the product type are stored via the transport system again in the rack. The warehouse transport system further transfers collected products via at least one through-channel to an intermediate storage site of a order picking station, from where collected products are manually or automatically by robot, supplied to a central belt assembly on a central belt. Irrespective of whether a product is to be order picked at the good-to-picker order picking station or at the order picking station, the product is collected from the same storage site of the rack.
