Assembly is the process of arranging all the components of a “kit” from the kitting process and readying it for shipment. For example, the pen and the notebook are both gathered, packaged together, and shipped as one item. Some fulfillment centers use an assembly line to carry out assembly services in bulk. This typically involves a team of employees, each performing a single task. The product is passed down the line to the next worker until the final product is put together. Once the kits are fully assembled, they are either shipped out to the customer or put in their storage spot for future incoming orders.
For example, shaving products (a pack of razors, shaving gel, and wipes) are picked, packaged, and shipped as a single package.
For instance, you can pack together products that complement each other – such as video games with video game controllers or stationery items with notebooks.
