Aioi Systems will begin accepting orders for a digital picking indicator that boasts low power consumption and a one-year battery life, starting October 1st. The 920MHz wireless indicator, "NW2991-JP," is the same model that has been initially sold in the Chinese market.

The key features of the "NW2991-JP" are its low power consumption, which significantly reduces the frequency of battery replacement and charging, and the fact that it can be easily implemented by simply adding a master unit to an existing wired display system.
Due to its high-speed response, there is virtually no delay in transmitting work instructions, and it can also display text and barcodes.
Furthermore, the 920MHz band wireless communication enables stable long-distance communication even in warehouses and factories with many obstacles. Since it utilizes a license-free frequency band, it also contributes to reducing implementation costs.

This time, in addition to our existing products that support simultaneous picking operations by multiple people, we have added a new product specifically designed for single-person operation to our lineup.
Digital picking indicators require no wiring, offering greater flexibility in installation location, and can be attached to trolleys, carts, picking carts, and transport robots. They clearly guide workers with lights and sounds, standardizing tasks that previously relied on paper instructions and reducing errors and variations in quality.
Electronic shelf labels that prioritize battery life are suitable for infrequent picking tasks, occurring only a few times a day, because updating work instructions takes time. On the other hand, the "NW2991-JP" balances high-speed response with long battery life, making it suitable for frequent picking situations with a single worker.
