As we all know, the effective distribution of logistics in the supply chain is one of the decisive factors for enterprises to gain competitive advantage. No matter when and where, only by choosing the most effective method of logistics and distribution can manufacturers improve customer service and establish a competitive advantage. Regrettably, the common practice of a considerable number of domestic logistics companies is to focus on building warehouses, buying equipment, and rebuilding and expansion. On the contrary, they ignore the more important daily work-storage space management.
In the process of serving warehousing and logistics enterprises, Tianjin Little Bee discovered that the pure walking time of traditional warehouse staff in the warehouse accounts for more than 60% of the total operating time. Carrying out storage location management according to the material mobility of goods can significantly improve operation efficiency. Combining practical experience, we found that: warehouse location management is an important design consideration that determines warehouse productivity. With a small amount of investment, re-planning and adjusting the warehouse location can achieve the business goals of improving operation efficiency and improving user service levels.
RFIDIt is the most core technology in the current Internet of Things project, which has gradually attracted attention from various fields. Its main feature is fast scanning speed, long-distance identification of goods, and more importantly, it can realize real-time transmission of information for management. Provide decision-making data, which is particularly important for warehouse location management. You know, among large logistics companies, the flow of data and the amount of information are very huge. General reading equipment and systems cannot satisfy real-time data control at all, so it is impossible to rationally and scientifically optimize storage location management.
The optimization process of RFID technology for warehousing location management:
1. Hardware setup and selection
In the initial stage of the project, the area and floor plan of the existing equipment in the warehouse and the overall warehouse should be fully investigated, especially the separation distance between the left and right and up and down of the shelves, and the outer packaging and characteristics of the goods.Next, we will conduct a reading and writing experiment and select different types ofelectronic labelTry different orientations and pasting methods on the goods, and try to choose cost-effective equipment to reduce the cost of the project on the premise of meeting business needs. Companies with special needs can also choose to install fixed readers on forklifts and shelves to improve efficiency.
2. Process detection
After the hardware is set up, debug the system. Make detailed data records for each process and compare it with the previous operation process to get the corresponding data. Carefully check the inadequate parts of the design to improve.
3. Comprehensive optimization of storage space management:
After the test is passed, the new warehousing management system will be fully implemented. After a period of operation, all data will be analyzed. At this time, the real-time data statistics based on RFID technology will provide a powerful data guarantee for the algorithm. It is possible to truly discover the problems in the storage location management and optimize the entire management level.
4. The beginning of re-planning:
After discovering the real problems in the storage space management, according to the storage space planning strategy, the entire warehouse is planned in an all-round and reasonable manner to finally meet the company’s planning goals.
In short, in the process of warehousing location management, it is necessary to discuss with the enterprise how to plan the warehouse location correctly, and discuss the planning operation method step by step from the engineering point of view. Through the implementation of the project, under the premise of minimum investment, make full use of existing warehouse resources, reduce warehouse operation costs, and improve user satisfaction.
