One Step Plus™ Print and Apply labeling systems auto apply a combination full packing sheet and shipping label. This technology reduces 35 seconds of labor per shipment. The system is ideally suited for high volume continuous distribution operations shipping E-com orders for retail giants such as Amazon, Walmart, Target, Wayfair, QVC, and many more.

Pick by Voice technology validates picking steps using a combination of voice commands/responses and hands-free two dimensional barcode scanning. Voice picking can be used for both batch and conveyor picking, and is combined with cartonization logic to support single touch pick to carton applications. Advanced Speaker Independent Voice virtually eliminates operator training time, having new pickers productive in minutes. This technology will also be demonstrated at Numina Groups booth.

Auto Print Fold Insert (PFI) technology accurately prints, folds, and places one to ten 8.5" x 11" printed sheets into cartons ranging from 4" to 30" in height. PFI is ideal for operations seeking to automate insertion of packing sheets, return labels, promotional materials, coupons, and new product announcements. PFI™ technology reduces 35 seconds of labor from every order and can be used to automate over 30 cartons per minute.

Put to Light Order Consolidation Put wall order consolidation technology allows a single operator to perform 500+ item scans and puts per hour. Put to light provides a highly efficient and cost effective means to simultaneously pick orders across all of the DCs pick zones and gain 30% to 50% higher productivity. Combining Pick by Voice with Put to Light allows both single zone picking direct to the shipping carton and simultaneously sweeping items across all of the warehouse zones to consolidation totes.
