TÜV Certification for Vanderlande Industries'
new
Pick@Ease Goods-to-Man Order Picking Work Station
Veghel, July 1st. 2008 - Vanderlande Industries has received the official
TÜV certification for its new PICK@EASE high-performance goods-to-man
order picking workstation. Thanks to ergonomic design principles, which
were applied throughout the design, the new workstation enables a proven
sustainable high operator performance, while virtually eliminating the
risk of physical injury to the operator.
The new PICK@EASE workstation family enables a proven sustainable high
operator performance thanks to ergonomic design principles which were
applied right from the start of development. Objective was to design workstations
which measurably improve operator performance, decrease risk of work-related
injury, illness and operator discomfort and therefore improve the quality
of work life.
The high performance workstation has been developed in close cooperation
with Dutch research institute TNO. TNO researched the actual product on
its ergonomic merits during a series of real-life operator tests held
at Vanderlande Industries' Innovation Centre in Veghel.
The German TÜV has now validated TNO's assessment and certified the
ergonomics claims and sustainable performance. The high performance workstation
delivers a proven sustainable performance of 900 order lines and 1,200
items per hour.
With the PICK@EASE workstation family, Vanderlande Industries supports
customers, who are looking for warehousing and distribution solutions
which reduce costs, improve efficiency and customer service levels, and
virtually eliminate work-related injuries to operators.
The new PICK@EASE workstation family is a key component of Vanderlande
Industries' Compact Picking System (CPS), a high-performance goods-to-man
order fulfillment system.
