2. Industry background
Logistics warehousing management represented by new circulation methods such as chain operations, logistics distribution, e-commerce and other industries are developing rapidly, coupled with the obvious increase in the trend of economic globalization, the new era industry logistics business puts forward new requirements for the warehouse management of logistics enterprises. In China, the traditional warehouse management method still occupies a large proportion of the logistics and warehousing business, and there are many problems, such as the inconsistency between the book and the actual quantity, the workload is too large, error-prone, and statistical inconvenience. If there is no efficient warehouse management business processing (such as daily work such as outbound, warehouse-in, inventory, etc.), and no accurate and timely processing of information, your business operations will pay high manpower, material resources, and time costs, which will cause resources in all aspects. waste.andRFIDTechnology can be seamlessly embedded in the entire business process of warehouse management. Logistics should be the first application field of the Internet of Things, and to some extent it can be said to be the main application field of the narrow Internet of Things.
Three, system design
The logistics warehouse management system based on RFID technology is an integrated system, which is the extension and application expansion of the Internet and communication network, and is a highly integrated and comprehensive application of a new generation of information technology. It is mainly composed of two subsystems, a software system and a hardware system. In the design of the system, Little Bee follows the brand concept of “Solving the Heart and Conciseness”.

Four, system function
The little bee RFID warehouse management system software platform mainly combines the characteristics of RFID technology with the warehouse management process, and realizes more scientific and visual management on the software. The following is an introduction to several important functions of the software:
1. Warehouse management
Deploy fixed RFID readers at the door of the warehouse, and carry out radio frequency planning according to the on-site environment. For example, four antennas can be installed up, down, left and right to ensure that RFID electronic tags are not missed.After receiving the warehousing order, the product will be warehousing according to certain rules. When the RFID electronic tag (ultra high frequency) enters the RFID fixed typeReaderThe RFID electronic tag will be actively activated within the range of electromagnetic waves, and then the RFID electronic tag will communicate with the RFID fixed reader. When the RFID tag is collected, it will be compared with the order to check whether the quantity and model of the goods are correct. If there are errors or omissions, they will be processed manually. , And finally transport the goods to the designated location and place them in accordance with the rules. The main advantage of RFID in warehouse management applications is non-contact long-distance identification, and can be read in batches, which improves efficiency and accuracy.
2. Outbound management
According to the pick-up plan, the goods out of the warehouse are sorted and processed and managed out of the warehouse. If the quantity out of the warehouse is large, push the goods to the door of the warehouse in batches, use a fixed reader to communicate with the tags, collect the RFID electronic tags of the goods out of the warehouse, and check whether they correspond to the plan. If there are errors, manually as soon as possible deal with. For a small amount of goods, RFID handheld terminals can be used to collect information from RFID electronic tags (handheld scanners or RFID tablet computers). When an error occurs, an alarm will be issued, and the staff should deal with it in time, and finally send the data to the management center Update the database to complete the delivery.
3. Inventory management
In accordance with the requirements of warehouse management, carry out regular and irregular inventory. The traditional inventory is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and error-prone. All these RFID solves these problems. When there is an inventory plan, the RFID handheld terminal is used to carry out the inventory scan of the goods, and the information of the inventory can be transmitted to the back-end database through the wireless network and carried out with the information in the database. Comparing, the generated difference information is displayed on the RFID handheld terminal in real time for verification by the inventory staff. After the inventory is completed, the inventory information is checked with the database information in the background, and the inventory is completed. In the inventory process, the system uses RFID non-contact reading (usually within 1 to 2 meters) to read clothing goods information very quickly and conveniently. Compared with the traditional model, it will improve a lot of efficiency and inventory accuracy. sex.
4. Basic information management
Set and manage the attributes of the goods, the main functions are, add, edit, delete, and query the basic attributes of the goods stored in the warehouse. In this way, it can be set according to the attributes of the operating products of different enterprises to ensure that it meets the individual needs of each enterprise. The warehouse can also be divided into locations, which can be divided into units such as warehouses, areas, and locations, so that large-scale warehouses can be managed more accurately. Warehouse managers at all levels can query and perform related business operations for inventory information of different dimensions.
5. System information management
Fully consider the scalability and security of the system, and provide reasonable tools to ensure system security. System management mainly completes the correction and maintenance of system operating parameters. Complete permissions assignment, add, modify, and delete data forms. At the same time, it has a complete login program (user name and password). Different personnel are given different permissions, which are set by the system administrator. The system also provides a one-key data backup and recovery function to further ensure the security and continuity of business data.
6. Data statistical analysis
The system can form statistical reports according to time, quantity and other elements, clarify the turnover period and efficiency, and facilitate the planning and control of the inventory management business process. The unified operation can speed up the speed of goods in and out of the warehouse, thereby increasing the throughput of the inventory center, and can provide Managers and decision makers provide timely and accurate inventory information, which can improve the accuracy of goods inquiries, reduce inventory levels, and improve the efficiency of the logistics system to strengthen the competitiveness of enterprises.
Five, the impact of the Internet of Things on logistics companies
The Internet of Things technology has an increasing impact on logistics companies, marking that informatization has reached a dynamic, real-time selection and control management level in the integration of networks and management and control processes. In the specific system analysis, we must determine the positioning of informatization according to our own actual level and customer needs. Smart logistics will be the future development direction of the logistics industry. However, in the current construction of logistics information, warehouse systems, etc., what new trends and factors need to be considered?
1. Openness.
In the past, the purpose of establishing an information system was to manage its own processes and resources, but now it is necessary to establish an open system, which must have the exchange and sharing of social information and external information, and at the same time have the opportunity to release its own information to the society.
2. Dynamic.
Adapting to the rapidly changing external environment and improving the level of refined management is the key to the development of the current enterprise. To make the management system adapt to the complex environment of rapid external development, it must be “moved.”
3. Concentration.
Now major enterprises are strengthening the construction of informatization, and centralized management has become an important trend. The application of informatization to network resource integration and process management has become more and more obvious. This kind of centralized management is conducive to improving the information processing and service capabilities. If the information is not centralized, it cannot be processed and improved.
4. Key technology.
Some key technologies will be developed rapidly: First, information collection technology, sensors or identification technology, such as RFID, magnetic cards, etc. The second is mobile communication technology, such as 3G network and 4G network belong to mobile wireless communication technology. The third is smart terminals. Compared with the informatization of other industries, as two unique equipment in logistics informatization, the airborne terminal and the handheld terminal play the role of a mobile information platform, which has the ability to collect information, communication, and sensing. And many other functions. The fourth is location services. Location services are currently very popular, and the fastest growing is location services provided by smartphones. The fifth is business intelligence technology. Once management transfers to rely on information processing and information processing, that is, when business intelligence technology is used to process and process information to achieve decision-making and realize value-added, business intelligence technology will become a hot topic.
5. Data center.
The data center is an area that is often overlooked, but in the process of advancing the Internet of Things, there may not be a unified answer to the various problems encountered, but as each case appears, we find that these cases reflect the success of the data center economic entity .
Information-based logistics management is actually less and less dependent on people, which is intelligent. Therefore, my summary of intelligence is: making things smart and making people stupid. People being stupid does not mean that they have low IQ, but that decision-making control does not rely on on-site personnel. This is the intelligent direction of logistics development.
