How to choose the equipment of logistics express automatic sorting machine?
The vigorous development of e-commerce industry has brought unprecedented opportunities and challenges. As a key link in the logistics chain, the efficiency of sorting is directly related to the smooth operation of the overall logistics system. However, with the disappearance of demographic dividend and the rising labor cost, it is particularly critical to find a balance between cost-effectiveness and service quality. At this time, automatic and unmanned sorting and conveying operations are gradually replacing the traditional manual mode and becoming a new trend in the industry. How to choose the appropriate automatic sorting equipment?
First, the mainstream automatic sorting system
Automatic sorting system is popular at present, especially in express delivery industry and e-commerce warehouse.
1. Cross-belt sorting system and turnover sorting system: mainly used for sorting boxes and single parts, and suitable for small and light parts.
4. Slider sorting system: mainly used for sorting boxes, suitable for medium-sized parts that are not easy to be damaged.
3. Balance wheel sorting system: it is mainly used for sorting boxes, with a general load of less than 50kg.
3. Ball module belt sorting system: it can sort a wide range of products, and also has good sorting ability for soft bags and woven bags with flat bottom.
⒌ Robot sorting system: it is mainly a sorting system for goods and parts to arrive at people, typically AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle). There is a Minions sorting system in the sorting system of AGV, which is mainly used for sorting parts.
Second, how to choose the appropriate automatic sorting system?
1)AGV sorting robot:
Mainly AGV sorting matrix, which is widely used in unmanned warehouses. The concept of unmanned warehouse is advanced, but the large-scale application of this kind of Minions matrix sorting system is not cost-effective, with high failure rate and complex background scheduling algorithm. Moreover, this matrix AGV sorting system belongs to two-dimensional code navigation, and there is a technical bottleneck: the more AGV cars, the lower its handling capacity.
2) Automatic sorting system:
Slider sorting machine, used for box sorting, can not sort soft package goods; Cross-belt sorting, mainly used in subdivision field, can provide more grids, with higher running speed and sorting capacity of 20,000-40,000 pieces or even higher. Cross-belt equipment can quickly and accurately complete the classification and sorting of goods, improve logistics efficiency and reduce labor costs. Especially with the rapid development of e-commerce, the logistics industry needs to handle a large number of parcels and express mail, and automatic sorting equipment can effectively reduce the burden on staff and improve the sorting speed and accuracy.
3) Online robot sorting system:
The main problem is that the price is relatively high, which is not cost-effective for the warehousing industry and the efficiency cannot be compared with that of labor; At present, it appears in big warehouse and rookie stations, but it is rarely used in other e-commerce warehouses.
When selecting automatic sorting equipment for express delivery, factors such as equipment performance, cost, manpower input, enterprise scale and operational requirements should be comprehensively considered to ensure that automatic sorting equipment can effectively improve logistics efficiency and reduce operating costs.
