Station
Overview
The Station module is used to centrally manage special operational points within the warehouse. These stations serve different functional purposes such as: manual picking workstations, manual packing workstations, robotic picking workstations, or charging stations for AGV or other devices.
Through this module, the WCS system can organize and assign both human operators and devices to the right locations based on station type and station strategy, ensuring efficient task distribution and resource utilization.
