Wired Hardware Edition

WIRED PICK-TO-LIGHT
SYSTEM (PTL)

Smart guided picking for faster, error-free material handling. Combining robust Ethernet-based TCP/IP communication, matrix-controlled LED routing, and a powerful centralized dashboard to streamline industrial assembly and sorting logistics.

Wired Pick-to-Light controller and light modules on industrial shelf

Product Overview

The **Induz AI Wired Pick-to-Light System** improves picking accuracy and operational efficiency by guiding operators to the correct storage location using intelligent LED indicators.

With stable **Ethernet-based TCP/IP communication** connecting the central PTL Controller to our custom dashboard, the system enables traceable material picking for modern manufacturing and warehouse setups. Rather than simple serial lines, the controller utilizes advanced **Matrix Control (Rows & Columns)** to target and illuminate active LED coordinates across the rack.

Key Capabilities

Advanced software management and stable connectivity engineered for industrial reliability.

Ethernet Communication

Stable, noise-immune TCP/IP wired communication between the central controller and the dashboard for uninterrupted data synchronization.

High Visibility

High-brightness LED status circles paired with a clear 4-digit red display tube to indicate exact picking quantities.

Easy Installation

Plug-and-play controller connections and rack mounting designs enable fast, hassle-free layout setups.

Dashboard Control

Direct control from a centralized EXE dashboard tracking orders, restocking paths, low-stock thresholds, and user profiles in real time.

Matrix LED Guidance

Advanced matrix routing (Rows & Columns) driven by the controller to light up specific slots without complex individual addressing.

Reliable Operation

High-durability mechanical confirm buttons and a robust chassis built to perform under extreme shop floor conditions.

System Configuration & Operation

A structured setup branching into individual picking or kit-based assembly flows.
