Forklift Workflow in Broken-Case Picking Warehouses

Broken-case picking, also known as each picking, is a core operation link in e-commerce and fast-moving consumer goods warehouses, which requires forklift operators to follow standardized workflows to ensure both operation safety and overall working efficiency. Before starting any formal task, operators need to complete full pre-shift checks first, including inspecting the remaining power level of the forklift, the flexibility of the braking system, the wear condition of the lifting forks and surrounding safety protection parts, to rule out potential hidden risks before entering the working area. After receiving the clear picking task list, operators will drive the forklift to the designated storage area at a safe speed no more than 5km per hour inside the warehouse, keep a safe distance of at least 0.5 meters from surrounding shelves and passing staff to avoid accidental collision. When arriving at the target storage location, the operator will adjust the height of the lifting fork stably, pick up the whole pallet of goods that need broken-case picking, and transport it to the designated picking working platform gently, to avoid tilting or dropping of goods during moving. After the picking staff finish taking out the required number of single units from the pallet, the operator will check the remaining goods on the pallet, confirm the quantity and packaging integrity, then transport the pallet back to the original storage position accurately, and park the forklift in the designated waiting area after the whole task is completed.

It is worth noting that operators need to avoid overloading the forklift beyond the rated load in the whole workflow, and do not lift the forks to an overly high position when driving on the warehouse passage, to prevent goods from falling accidentally. Regular standardized operation training for operators can effectively reduce operation error rate, extend the service life of the forklift, and steadily improve the overall turnover efficiency of broken-case picking operations on the premise of guaranteed safety.
