Cover Story: Manual order picking is, inarguably, the most labor intensive and strenuous warehouse task. Still, ergonomic factors are rarely included in the picking layout and storage assignment design process. This paper aims to improve the overall performance of warehouse order picking by proposing an innovative ‘flame-shaped’ aisle layout and introducing a storage assignment strategy, which takes into consideration a set of ergonomic constraints pertinent to the rack heights and travel distance restrictions for each slot type and measures the ‘difficulty’ of retrieving the products based on their weight, popularity, and slot location. The proposed method was applied in a real-life case study and led to a productivity rise of 14.9% and a significant decrease in the ‘difficulty’ index of 31%. View this paper
