Pick-by-Light Module: PTF-6N-1
PTF-6N-1
8.4 in x 2 in
This PTF-6N-1 pick-by-light display is a module with a numeric display. Compared to the four-digit PTF-4N-1, two additional numeric characters are available here. We recommend using this compartment display in a pick-by-light system for displaying large quantities. Of course, it is also possible to use the first or last characters to provide information about container units.
This compartment display variant is used in process flows that require the display of six-digit numeric characters. These include large withdrawal quantities, abbreviated item numbers, or, if necessary, storage location designations. After the order has been activated in the system, the compartment displays light up with the corresponding withdrawal quantities and, if necessary, employee information.
The withdrawal is confirmed using the acknowledgment button. The +/- buttons can be used to perform short quantity correction and inventory. Various individual functions can be triggered using the function button. The information displayed and the sequence on the compartment display are LUCA-Server by the LUCA-Server and can be customized.

Why different system names?
pick-by-light
The pick-by-light method is a classic picking method that uses compartment displays. The pick-by-light display shows the quantity to be picked directly at the storage compartment. The pick-by-light system usually receives confirmation of the pick by pressing a button on the module.
pick-to-light
The term is often used in English-speaking countries instead of pick-by-light. The pick-to-light method is a Multi-Order-Picking that focuses on distributing items that have just been picked to different orders. The method is typically used with a picking cart (Pick-by-Cart).
put-to-light
The put-to-light method clearly defines the distribution of goods to the target compartments. A classic example of this is replenishment in a flow rack.
