A Genetic Algorithm for the Order Batching Problem in Low-Level Picker-to-Part Warehouse Systems
In this work we introduce a Genetic Algorithm (GA) for the Order Batching Problem considering traversal and return routing policies. The proposed GA has been tested on randomly generated instances and compared with the wellknown savings algorithm. According to our extensive computational experiments we can say that the proposed GA yields promising solutions in acceptable computation times.
متن کاملContinuous-Time Models for Estimating Picker Blocking in Order-Picking-Systems
Congestion is a problem in order-picking-systems. We developed CTMC models to represent picker blocking in cases including pickers with different exponentially distributed picking times and k pickers, for narrow and wide aisle systems. The focus was not to produce an all-inclusive model, but to generate models that give designers insight of the system, allowing them to reduce the number of vari...
متن کاملOrder Batching in a Bucket Brigades Order Picking System with Consideration of Picker Blocking
A bucket brigade strategy allows workloads in warehouses to be distributed with a minimal level of managerial planning and oversight. However, the variability and uncertainty of the pick locations within a particular order or batch often results in picker blocking and subsequent losses in productivity. This study formulates an order batching model for robust blocking control of dynamic bucket b...
متن کاملOptimally solving the joint order batching and picker routing problem
In this work we investigate the problem of order batching and picker routing in storage areas. These are labour and capital intensive problems, often responsible for a substantial share of warehouse operating costs. In particular, we consider the case of online grocery shopping in which orders may be composed of dozens of items. We present a formulation for the problem based on an exponential n...
متن کاملA note on picker blocking models in a parallel-aisle order picking system
This note develops analytical picker blocking models to simply and accurately assess picker blocking in parallel-aisle order picking systems when multiple picks occur at a pick point. The Markov chain-based models characterize the two bounding walking speeds for modeling picker movement: unit walk-time and instantaneous walk-time. The unit-walk time model has a state space transition matrix tha...
