How Can E-Paper Pick to Light and Dynamic Zoning Transform Pharmacy Operations?

Feb 18,2025
With the growing demand for accurate and efficient medication dispensing, traditional manual picking methods in pharmacies and hospital dispensaries face increasing challenges. Integrating Pick to Light technology with e-paper displays and dynamic zoning management offers a smart, flexible, and scalable solution.
Challenges in Medication Dispensing
Pharmacies and hospital dispensaries handle a vast number of prescriptions daily, requiring:

Speed: Reducing waiting times for patients.

Accuracy: Minimizing human errors in medication picking.

Flexibility: Adapting to frequent changes in stock locations.

Traditional paper labels or fixed LCD screens struggle to keep up with real-time updates, leading to inefficiencies.
E-paper Pick-to-Light Labels and Dynamic Zoning Management
By combining e-paper pick-to-light labels and dynamic zoning management, pharmacies can achieve:

Real-time medication location updates: E-paper labels display medication names, dosages, and stock levels, dynamically updating as inventory changes.

Adaptive zoning for efficient workflows: Instead of fixed picking stations, the system automatically adjusts picking zones based on prescription demand, ensuring a balanced workload among staff.

Energy-efficient, low-maintenance operation: Unlike traditional LCD displays, e-paper labels consume power only when refreshing, making them ideal for long-term pharmacy operations.
A leading hospital pharmacy adopted a Pick to Light system with e-paper displays and dynamic zoning to streamline medication dispensing. Before implementation, the pharmacy faced:

Frequent stock relocations, leading to confusion among staff.
High picking errors, causing delays and medication mismanagement.
Inefficient manual tracking of stock levels.

After deploying e-paper Pick to Light labels with dynamic zoning, results were immediate:

✅ 50% reduction in picking errors by providing clear, real-time visual guidance.
✅ 30% faster prescription fulfillment, reducing patient wait times.
✅ Automated zoning adjustments, ensuring staff always worked in optimized picking areas.
As pharmacies continue to evolve, integrating e-paper Pick to Light solutions with dynamic zoning will become a key driver of efficiency. The combination of real-time updates, energy efficiency, and adaptive workflows makes it an ideal solution for modern healthcare environments.
