Abstract: A method in which a probability of the occurrence of a disruption is issued and/or a measure is initiated which reduces the probability of the occurrence of this disruption if the occurrence of a disruption is probable, bases the probability on unit load properties of a conveyed unit load. In this method, the transport of this unit load is classified with regard to whether or not a disruption occurs during the transport of this unit load. The unit load properties are fed into a learning algorithm together with the transport classification. By repeating the steps for a number of unit loads, the probability of the occurrence of a disruption during the transport of the unit loads can be computed. Further, a picking system carries out the method presented.

Abstract: A mobile measurement-value acquisition unit has an autarkic power supply, a central processing unit and multiple sensors. The mobile measurement-value acquisition unit can acquire measured data on a movement path in a storage and picking system and store the location of the acquisition. During this process, the mobile measurement-value acquisition unit is moved along the movement path by conveyors of the storage and picking system and is optionally stopped on a storage location of the storage and picking system. Further, such measurement-value acquisition unit operates in a storage and picking system, and a method operates the storage and picking system.
