Optioryx warehouse optimization solution include customized options including picking, packing, and slotting. It uses AI optimization algorithms to cut walking distances, receive data-driven slotting insights, increase fill rates of boxes and pallets, and reduce overall labour and transport costs.

Optioryx states that warehouses face low picking productivity and rising shipping costs due to basic WMS logic, manual packing decisions, and labor shortages. Without affordable automation or tools to help temporary workers get up to speed quicker, teams rely on inefficient processes and outdated tools. Slotting decisions are based on static rules or Excel heatmaps. Box and pallet packing is manual and inefficient. And there is no clear way to identify or test improvement opportunities.

Through automation, Optioryx helps to increase picking productivity and lower labour needs while improving slotting efficiency. Optioryx optimizes the packing of boxes and pallets to minimize waste and reduce transport costs.

• Picking optimization. Applies advanced routing and batching algorithms to reduce walking distances on the warehouse floor.
• 3D Cartonization. Determines the optimal box size and quantity during packing based on product and packaging dimensions.
• 3D Palletization. Creates stable, full pallets by consolidating orders into the optimal number of pallets, improving fill rates, and reducing transport costs.
• Pick & Pack optimization. Guides pickers along the shortest path and provide clear packing instructions during pick tours. Helps new workers to perform efficiently on day one.
• Sales order planning. Calculates the number of boxes or pallets required at the order-entry stage.
• What-if scenarios. Simulates layout changes, slotting strategies, and equipment choices
• Warehouse heatmaps. Spots congestion points and improves slotting with warehouse heatmaps.
