How Rapido Works

When an order crate barcode is scanned, an electronic signal triggers the corresponding Rapido Pick-to-Light display at the relevant pick location. Operators are guided to the correct location with a visual signal (seven-colour LED) and a four-digit alphanumeric display.

Simple input keys and a confirmation button ensure rapid, error-free picking with minimal training required.

Addressing Inefficiencies in Order Picking

Traditional picking methods result in significant inefficiencies—pickers often spend up to 70% of their time travelling and searching for items, with only 15% spent on actual picking.

High staff turnover further disrupts operations through constant retraining.

Addverb’s Rapido system addresses these challenges by providing guided, high-speed picking with minimal manual intervention. Real-time visual guidance reduces travel time, streamlines workflows, and increases overall fulfilment efficiency.
