Enhancing Order-picking Efficiency through Data Mining and Assignment Approaches
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using data mining techniques, this study attempts to explore how a proper layout zoning following class-based storage enhances order picking efficiency over randomized storage. Association web statistics and association rule mining examines the relative intensity levels among various product categories. These findings serve as the layout for zoning of the storage area of α company, a pharmaceutical industry master distributor. A class-based assignment policy is then proposed. Finally, by transforming accumulated orders into Pallet-Case-Broken case (PCB) data and adopting batch picking, this study compares random assignment policy with zoning and class-based assignment policy. The results conclude that zoning and class-based assignment policy decreases travel distances by 24% and improves picking times by 21%. KeyWords: order picking, storage assignment, data mining, association rule, layout zoning, class-based

A Fuzzy Multi-Objective Class Based Storage Location Assignment
The required storage space and the material handing cost in a warehouse hinge on the storage implementation decision. Effects of storage area reduction on order picking and storage space cost are incorporated. Moreover, merchandises which are in the same shape and can be stored beside each other easily or goods that don't cause any danger like causing a fire if be in touch with each other, ...

One of the cost-intensive issues in managing warehouses is the order picking problem which deals with the retrieval of items from their storage locations in order to meet customer requests. Many solution approaches have been proposed in order to minimize traveling distance in the process of order picking. However, in practice, customer orders have to be completed by certain due dates in order t...
