Abstract The order picking (OP) process includes several manual activities in which OP operators frequently load heavy items in awkward postures. Warehouse managers must manage operators’ health risks by determining an improvement strategy for the OP environment. This study proposes a technical method for segment picking activities and integrate them with posture risk assessment based on an ergonomic evaluation tool. We developed an analytical system using an inertial measurement unit-based motion capture device to measure and report the risk distribution of every type of picking activity. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method quantifies the effect of different environments on each operator's ergonomic risk.

自动风险评估与订单拣选过程中的活动细分相结合，以支持健康管理

摘要 订单拣选 (OP) 过程包括多项手动活动，其中 OP 操作员经常以尴尬的姿势装载重物。仓库经理必须通过确定 OP 环境的改进策略来管理操作员的健康风险。本研究提出了一种分段采摘活动的技术方法，并将其与基于人体工程学评估工具的姿势风险评估相结合。我们开发了一个分析系统，使用基于惯性测量单元的动作捕捉设备来测量和报告每种采摘活动的风险分布。实验结果表明，所提出的方法量化了不同环境对每个操作员的人体工程学风险的影响。
