High Performance
A system’s performance isn’t determined solely by the speed of the technology. Planningis far more important in ensuring the right processes and employee support, and in increasing acceptance. The technology itself isn’t the key factor here. However, it won’t work without the right technology.
The Fast LUCA Method
High-speed technology is essential for developing modern order-picking systems. The LUCA Server’s technology is based on high-performance developments created entirely in-house, without relying on third-party products such as Microsoft objects or purchased libraries. The ANSI C++ code interacts directly with the operating system at the lowest level, ensuring maximum stability.
Internally, the LUCA-Server can exchange and process LUCA-Server thousand messages per second between processes and interfaces. The databases are used as data containers for the processes and do not play a role in the active data exchange. Professional internal mechanisms ensure the security of the data in transit. For this reason, the LUCA-Server can be classified LUCA-Server a high-performance product.
Die Geschwindigkeit ist eine Frage der Definition. Bei einigen Marktprodukten wird mit Antwortzeiten < 1 Sekunde geworben. Das reicht aber bei komplexen Anlagen nicht.
Plan thoroughly first, then choose the technology
Even though today’s technology offers many possibilities and interesting ideas, it doesn’t always make sense to use something that isn’t suited to the employee or the process.
An excellent example of poor planning and a passing fad is the misguided use of Google Glass in logistics. The technology itself is very good. However, using it for logistics staff is completely misguided. Google Glass is being replaced very quickly by basic tablets, which is not the goal. We conducted research projects on this topic several years ago and gathered experience.
From this perspective, proper planning—and only then the correct selection of the right technology—is the key to high-performance, stable, and cost-optimized systems. Take advantage of our proven systems, such as Pick-by-Light, Pick-by-Frame®, Pick-by-Point®, Voice Picking etc.
