Tüv Certification for Vanderlande Workstation

Vanderlande Industries has received official TÜV certification for its new PICK@EASE high-performance goods-to-man order picking workstation. Thanks to ergonomic design principles, which were applied throughout development, the new workstation enables a proven sustainable high operator performance, while virtually eliminating the risk of physical injury to the operator. The objective was to design workstations that measurably improve operator performance, decrease the risk of work-related injury, illness and operator discomfort, and therefore improve the quality of work life. The high performance workstation has been developed in close co-operation with the Dutch research institute, TNO. TNO researched the actual product on its ergonomic merits during a series of real-life operator tests held at Vanderlande Industries’ Innovation Centre in Veghel. The German TÜV has now validated TNO’s assessment and certified the ergonomics claims and sustainable performance. The high performance workstation delivers a proven performance of 900 order lines and 1200 items per hour.

With the PICK@EASE workstation family, Vanderlande Industries supports customers who are looking for warehousing and distribution solutions that reduce costs, improve efficiency and customer service levels, and virtually eliminate work-related injuries to operators. The new PICK@EASE workstation family is a key component of Vanderlande Industries’ Compact Picking System (CPS), a high-performance goods-to-man order fulfilment system.
