Accuracy
Pick It Right the First Time
Inaccurate picks don’t just hurt your numbers—they hurt your brand. With Kardex automation from AMH, you get consistent, high-accuracy order fulfillment that drives customer trust and operational efficiency.
Why Accuracy Matters
Every mispick costs you time, money, and customer satisfaction. In high-volume operations, even a 1% error rate adds up fast.
With our systems, you can:
- Achieve 99.9% pick accuracy
- Minimize returns, rework, and shrink
- Improve operator performance with guided workflows
Built-In Intelligence
Kardex systems use:
- Light-directed picking to reduce cognitive load
- Barcode scanning & confirmation to ensure order integrity
- Controlled inventory access to prevent unauthorized or mistaken pick
All while tracking every action for easy audits and quality control.
Case Study
FLOWSERVE - Gaining Control, Accuracy & Efficiency in MRO Inventory
Client:
Flowserve
Industry:
Manufacturing / Industrial Equipment
Solution:
Vertical Lift Module (VLM) ASRS with Oracle Integration
Focus:
Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) Parts Management
Case Study
Flowserve was facing major inefficiencies in their maintenance parts storage. MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) inventory was stored manually in bins and boxes scattered across racking and shelving—without any inventory software. The lack of control and traceability led to frequent part loss, damage, and costly production downtime.
Project Goals
- Reclaim floor space for production parts
- Improve inventory accuracy and visibility
- Reduce picking times and search efforts
- Streamline MRO operations with software integration
The Solution
Flowserve implemented two 21-foot Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) to condense their MRO crib into just 200 sq ft. We integrated Kardex Power Pick Global (PPG) with their Oracle ERP, eliminating manual tracking and dramatically improving control over inventory.
Results
- 75% Reduction in picking time – from 12 minutes to 3 minutes per job
- 1,500+ Hours Saved Annually searching for materials
- 70% Reduction in inventory write-offs due to improved accuracy
- Significant Floor Space Recovered for production operations
Continued Growth
Impressed with the ROI, Flowserve has expanded their investment—ordering three additional shuttles to manage production parts with the same accuracy and efficiency.
