Abstract

This chapter is about the analysis with respect to the accommodation of wooden furniture inside a vehicle for their respective distribution, verifying the option of finding the correct stow model and accommodation maximum within the same, taking as a basis the traditional industry of furniture. Driving this problematic alluding to what is known as order picking takes into account the various restrictions in order to carry out a logical arrangement and awareness on the various care that must be carried out at the time of the handling of the same, all this with the aim of finding the best practices at the time of the mount of merchandise in the vehicle and the further optimization of space in the interior. With the help of software order picking algorithm visualization, it will display the virtual simulation associated with the improvement of material and products in a warehouse to display the form of accommodation of the goods within the container selected for the study. The management of a warehouse is a complex process that in turn comprises a good number of processes and activities typical of the logistics function that has evolved enormously in recent years. Continuous improvement that recurs costs and increases the productivity of the products. This management model is focused on the creation of flow to be able to deliver a maximum value to customers. It is essential to manage the resources of the warehouse, as units where a proposal is made, and to give possible solutions in the management of their processes, for which a record of information of a warehouse was made. For this, the order picking model was used, which is the selection of orders where you can define how they will be stored.
