Summary

  • Design a simulation model to estimate the impact of several Single Picker Routing Problem strategies in your Picking Productivity This article is part of a series about Warehouse Operations Optimization with Python.
  • ( This series of articles aims to determine how to design a model to simulate the impact of several picking processes and routing method to find optimal order picking by using the Single Picker Routing Problem (SPRP) for a two-dimensional warehouse model (axis-x, axis-y).
  • You can then link every order line to a geographical location for picking.
  • Calculate distance between two picking locations (5) Different routes between two storage locations in the warehouse — (Image by Author) This function will be used to calculate the walking distance from a point i (xi, yi) and j (xj, yj).
