    • 2017 February, Santeri Suni, “Improvement of shuttle and lift positioning in an automated warehouse system”, in Tampere University of technology[1], Finland, archived from the original on 7 September 2025:
      Ordered goods (to the stores or online sales) are picked by employees at pick to tote (PTT) picking stations. PTT stations are able to handle around 750 order lines and 500 to 600 orders per hour. When an order is released to the WMS from the host, MFS starts to allocate storing totes for a right picking sequence.
