IIoT Pick to Light Starter Kit Proof of Concept Introduced by Voodoo Robotics

Plano, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/17/2017 -- Voodoo Robotics introduces the Pick-to-Light Warehouse Starter Kit (https://voodoorobotics.com/starter-kit/). According to Trevor Blumenau CEO of Voodoo Robotics, "The Starter Kit includes ten Pick-to-Light devices, a turbo, which connects the devices to the Internet, and a management account. The components are leased on a month-to-month basis, so small manufacturers can reduce capital outlay, paying for only the lights needed (returning those unneeded). The system is the first variable inventory control expense in the industrial market based solely on use and need."

The Pick-to-Light devices leverage the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to bring the next-generation of Pick-to-Light functionality to the warehouse. Devices are wireless and can last for years (depending on usage) on two regular AA alkaline batteries. Multi-line Pick-to-Light devices can light up with the pickers name, the SKU, and quantity to pick or anything else needed.

The Turbo connects the Pick-to-Light devices to the Internet. It comes with a power adapter and mounting bracket. Turbos connect to the Internet using WiFi or Ethernet and are normally installed like a router, high-up on a wall or pillar.

One SKU-Keeper user account will allow the Pick-to-Light devices to connect to the Internet. Customers can use the account to register device locations, monitor battery voltages, and manage the overall system.

Plano, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/15/2017 -- SKU-Keeper by Voodoo Robotics is offering inventory management with basic, yet important, traceability functionality. The Texas-based Voodoo Robotics was recently profiled in AutomationMedia.com magazine.

Trevor Blumenau CEO of Voodoo Robotics brought the product to market because there was a need for an affordable solution, a system that keeps track of received inventory and movements through a warehouse or manufacturing operation.

What is tracked by SKU-Keeper are 'merge points' and 'diverge points' where inventory comes together or is separated. Similar inventory is tracked together after a merge, inventory that is separated is tracked separately after a diverge.

Even the smallest process manufacturers are constantly seeking solutions which will ease the complexity of compliance reporting. Providing traceability allows process manufacturers to follow an item from incoming raw material through multiple bins to the finished good sent to a specific customer. Lot tracking can be used for both purchased items and manufactured items. It is critical that process manufacturers can choose from several lot issue methods and create custom serial and lot numbers for any item.

Plano, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/10/2017 -- Texas-based Voodoo Robotics has invented a new sales model for the next generation of Pick-to-Light systems. The new value proposition, according to Trevor Blumenau, CEO of Voodoo Robotics, recognizes that small manufacturers, distribution centers, and 3PL (third-party logistics) companies are seeking flexible, easy-to-learn, and affordable technology solutions that are fully scalable to grow or shrink with any company's requirements.

As described in a recent article published in Automation.com magazine, Pick-to-Light equipment has traditionally represented a significant fixed capital expense with little consideration for variable use, often driven by seasonality, warehouse/distribution variance, and project management flux. These swings in low or high usage represent a level of waste as sometimes over-purchased lights go unused and wasted.

The new system from Voodoo includes very economical Pick-to-Light devices which can also manage inventory in the warehouse. These devices are leased on a month-to-month basis, so small manufacturers can reduce capital outlay, paying for only the lights needed (returning those unneeded). The system is the first variable inventory control expense in the industrial market based solely on use and need. With the increasing demand for customizable manufacturing throughout the supply chain, a newer Pick-to-Light technology was needed that pioneers and advances the next generation of cost-effective picking solutions.

Plano, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/09/2017 -- Third party logistics (3PLs) providers are faced with heightened picking requirements during the holiday season. Frequently there is an increase of more than 50% in picking between October and December than the other nine months of the year.

While most Pick-to-Light solutions often sell scalability as a feature, advantage, and benefit, most 3PLs may find themselves with a reduced need for Pick-to-Lights after the holiday season. For the first time, there is a solution which permits downward scalability.3PLs using Voodoo Robotics pay-as-you-go Pick-to-Lights lease precisely the number of lights required each month. As vendors increase, 3PLs can adjust lights accordingly; as they decrease, fewer lights can be leased. This unique value proposition, is the first of its kind in the materials handling sector.

Plano, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/24/2017 -- Texas-based Voodoo Robotics has invented a new sales model for the next generation of Pick-to-Light systems. As described in a recent article published in Robotics and Automation News, Pick-to-Light equipment has traditionally represented a significant fixed capital expense with little consideration for variable use, often driven by seasonality, warehouse/distribution variance, and project management flux. These swings in low or high usage represent a level of waste as sometimes over-purchased lights go unused and wasted.

The new value proposition, according to Trevor Blumenau, CEO of Voodoo Robotics, recognizes that small manufacturers, distribution centers, and 3PL (third-party logistics) companies are seeking flexible, easy-to-learn, and affordable technology solutions that are fully scalable to grow or shrink with any company's requirements.

The new system from Voodoo includes very economical Pick-to-Light devices which can also manage inventory in the warehouse. These devices are leased on a month-to-month basis, so small manufacturers can reduce capital outlay, paying for only the lights needed (returning those unneeded). The system is the first variable inventory control expense in the industrial market based solely on use and need. With the increasing demand for customizable manufacturing throughout the supply chain, a newer Pick-to-Light technology was needed that pioneers and advances the next generation of cost-effective picking solutions.

Pick-to-Light is a fulfillment technology which uses alphanumeric displays and buttons at storage locations to guide the manual picking of items for shipment.

Plano, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/20/2017 -- Voodoo Robotics CEO, Trevor Blumenau, demonstrates the SKU-Station, a workstation kiosk for the warehouse. In the video, Blumenau shows how to activate multiple devices at once, simulating a Pick-to-Light.

Blumenau shared, "The low-power devices run on two AA batteries and are very easy to maintain. Our system continuously keeps track of the voltage of the batteries so you know when they are going to run out. Devices can last for years (depending on usage) before the batteries need to be replaced. Adding devices to your warehouse is a very easy and economical way to enhance operations."

The most common method to mount the devices is with double-sided tape. Screws, bolts, zip-ties, wire, string, or twine can also be used.Pick-to-Light devices can be mounted on carts, boxes, bins, containers, shelving, pallet racking, and more. Devices can be mounted almost anywhere.

Plano, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/19/2017 -- SKU-Keeper by Voodoo Robotics is offering inventory management with basic, yet important, traceability functionality. The Texas-based Voodoo Robotics was recently profiled in AutomationMedia.com magazine.

Trevor Blumenau CEO of Voodoo Robotics brought the product to market because there was a need for an affordable solution, a system that keeps track of received inventory and movements through a warehouse or manufacturing operation.

What is tracked by SKU-Keeper are 'merge points' and 'diverge points' where inventory comes together or is separated. Similar inventory is tracked together after a merge, inventory that is separated is tracked separately after a diverge.

Even the smallest process manufacturers are constantly seeking solutions which will ease the complexity of compliance reporting. Providing traceability allows process manufacturers to follow an item from incoming raw material through multiple bins to the finished good sent to a specific customer. Lot tracking can be used for both purchased items and manufactured items. It is critical that process manufacturers can choose from several lot issue methods and create custom serial and lot numbers for any item.
