Consider the following factors to choose the best order picker for your warehouse:

1. Warehouse Layout

The three main types of order pickers listed above are ideal for different layouts. Before choosing an order picker, examine

your warehouse shelves and evaluate where you store the majority of the products you need to pick and move frequently.

You can choose a low-level picker if most of your items are at the floor level or on low shelves, or you can choose a high

level picker if you use significant vertical shelf space. Standard order pickers are typically the best option if you store items

at various heights, but straddle load order pickers are ideal if your warehouse has narrow spaces.

2. Comfort

Comfort is another considerable factor when choosing an order picker. Different models offer various features to facilitate

comfortable operation. Operators can complete tasks comfortably when they have a spacious compartment with the

following features:Cushioned floor£¬Padded floor mat£¬Low step height£¬Unobstructed visibility£¬Multi-function control

handle£¬Adjustable control handle workers can rotate to achieve the most comfortable stance£¬Retractable side gates.

3. Stability and Control

You should choose an order picker that offers excellent stability and control. Stepless speed control, smooth speed

adjustment and height-sensing capabilities increase stability and productivity. Order pickers with Smart-Glide™

technology offer the greateststability, allowing operators to pick and transport items safely.

4. Efficiency

Choosing an efficient order picker is also essential. You can increase productivity by choosing an order picker built with

state-of-the-art technology. The most efficient order pickers have the following features:Wire guidance,Efficient pallet

clamps,Foot-operated pedal, Multi-turn steering Wire guidance systems keep order pickers on the right path so operators

can focus on order picking while the machine handles steering. Efficient pallet clamps center and grip pallets automatically

. Foot-operated pedals enable operators to release pallets quickly, and multi-turn steering increases an order picker¡¯s error

detection for greater control.

5. Application

You should also consider your application before choosing an order picker. Some items require special equipment due to their

size or shape. A furniture selector is an order picker that can handle furniture and other large, bulky, delicate or odd-shaped

loads. Consider investing in a furniture selector if the majority of your products are oversized or require special lifting.
