The efficiency of manual operations has its limits. Goods are prone to quality problems such as defects during the picking, counting, transportation, and loading and unloading processes. Intelligent logistics is ultimately the future trend, and highly automated “unmanned warehouses” are close to reality. Labor costs are high and efficiency is low in developed markets in Europe and the United States. Automated warehousing will be the only way to develop large-scale overseas warehouses.
Revolving around WMS and WCS warehousing control systems, a highly automated operating system that integrates storage containers, transportation, picking, barcode detection, and control systems is included. The complete system includes automatic access AS/RS systems, high-performance Density three-dimensional storage technology, high-speed sorting system and AGV automatic guided transport vehicles, etc., improve storage utilization, picking accuracy and efficiency, and reduce cargo damage rate.
Traditional light picking, RF handheld picking, voice picking, etc. are all still in the “human search for goods” mode. Robot AGV operation subverts the traditional e-commerce logistics center operation mode. AGVs are mobilized through operation plans to achieve “good search”. people”.
Amazon’s intelligent robot Kiva technology enables unmanned warehouse areas. AGVs in each warehouse are automatically sorted to work positions. Operation efficiency and travel mileage are 2 to 4 times higher than traditional manual labor. DHL is also Its warehouse offers EffFBOT autonomous trolley robots. In 2016, JD.com’s “unmanned warehouse” was exposed for the first time, and black technologies such as AGV handling robots, shuttle shelves, DELTA sorting robots, and six-axis robots were all unveiled.
Amazon’s warehousing technology still has a lot worth studying. Its big data application is very proficient, and it is data-driven throughout aspects such as accurate inventory forecasting, intelligent picking algorithms, packaging distribution, distribution planning, transportation capacity allocation and terminal distribution. Always; Amazon’s CubiScan instrument will measure the volume of newly-incoming small and medium-volume products, store and mix them randomly, achieve optimal space utilization and ensure the balance of each employee’s tasks; unique delivery “octopus” sorting Workbench, fast parcel routing; after the output of AWS technical capabilities, Amazon exported logistics services, such as providing warehousing operation services for NetEase Kaola Overseas Shopping’s Ningbo bonded warehouse, building systems and designing a full-process operation system.
