A warehouse floor is a bustling place. Many processes go on in warehouses simultaneously, and they can benefit from logistics and material handling automation to keep things running smoothly. Receiving, picking, and packing goods at distribution centers or ecommerce centers could be made easier with robots and conveyance systems working alongside employees. We'll review the most significant automation opportunities within receiving, picking, packing, palletizing and dispatching, and put-away processes.
收货和拣货都可以受益于自动化实物搬运流程或优化数据输入和数据管理。 公司可以使用多种系统来提高其拣选流程的可追溯性、准确性和效率,包括:
拣选系统自动化或智能拣选系统可能包括集成机器人来对库存进行分类、将产品分组到一个订单中,或使用输送系统移动产品。 按灯拣货和按灯放货系统使用LED灯引导员工到正确的区域来拣选或放置货物,有时还包括使用机器人扫描和追踪产品。 这些系统是无纸化的,减少了员工寻找产品所需的时间,并提高了准确性。
JR Automation是自动化物料搬运解决方案的领先提供商。 我们的RFSS系统为库存管理提供了一个精准的解决方案,它让您可以随时实时查看手头的物料。 它还可以自动执行拣选操作期间所需的物理运动。 这意味着更高效的工作流程;提高产量;降低劳动力成本;减少由于货物在容器、架子或手提袋中的错位或不正确放置而导致的错误;降低重复性运动损伤带来的受伤风险;以及更好的客户服务,因为货物的交付速度比以往任何时候都快。
自动化可以改进物料搬运、包装准备和订单装运。 仓库可以使用与用于拣配和收货相同的系统来进行调度和出库流程。 例如,您可以集成一个自动存储和检索系统 (AS/RS),用于货物到人的拣选和包装,通过传送带或车辆检索货物并将其输送给员工。 相比单独通过人工劳动,机器人码垛机可以以更高的数量和循环率准备大包装或手提袋。 用于调度和出库的自动化仓库机器人包括:
Putting away stock from receiving is one of the most traditionally manual processes within large warehouses. Depending on the type of facility, put-away processes can be complex, including sorting boxes or totes with many kinds of products. Just like receiving and picking, data accuracy is crucial. Companies can turn to multiple machines and intelligent systems to make these processes faster, more ergonomic, and more accurate. Systems include:
