RFID-based logistics training system at Beijing Corelink Exhibition
[ad_1]
I. Introduction
In recent years, my country’s logistics economy has been developing rapidly. The shortage of logistics talents has made the education and training of logistics professionals, which were relatively lagging behind, gradually entering the fast lane in the past two years. At present, my country’s logistics higher education mostly emphasizes theory and neglects practice. For this reason, the Educational Guidance Committee for Logistics Majors in Higher Education Institutions of the Ministry of Education recommends that colleges and universities improve the logistics practice teaching system, advocate reducing theoretical lectures, and increasing practical content such as experiments and computers.
Driven by technological progress and management technology innovation, the logistics industry has entered the era of supply chains. Some new technologies and concepts have also jumped into people’s field of vision. Among them, because RFID has the ability to track and manage the entire supply chain from the point of production to the point of final consumption, it can realize the identification of logistics operation tools and the automatic identification of operations, enabling warehouse management, inventory management, location assignment management, and supplier inventory Management, valuable commodity management, etc. are automated, and the entire supply chain monitoring has broad application prospects. Therefore, the establishment of an RFID logistics training system is of great significance to strengthen the practical teaching of school logistics.
2. RFID logistics training system project goals
The main goal of the RFID logistics training system is to focus on the concept of “digital logistics”, that is, to fully integrate the new technology of RFID into the software and hardware of the entire laboratory, and strive to achieve the digitization and informatization of all experimental projects. Fully reflects the characteristics of modern digital logistics. The main goal is to reflect the following points:
1.Integrate new RFID technology
RFID is the abbreviation of Radio Frequency Identification, that is, radio frequency identification, also known as electronic label technology. RFID radio frequency identification technology is a non-contact automatic identification technology, which automatically recognizes the target object and obtains related data through radio frequency signals.
Compared with the barcodes and QR codes that are currently widely used in the logistics field, this electronic tag has obvious advantages in the following aspects: one is that it can be read and written at a distance; the other is that it is not affected by the environment and is generally It can still maintain its working performance in harsh environments; third, it can store and modify information; fourth, it can be used repeatedly. Moreover, the identification work does not require manual intervention, which is conducive to improving the efficiency, accuracy and safety of the logistics system.
How to integrate RFID technology into the existing logistics system better and faster is an important task for the Chinese people. The establishment of this training system will enable students to strengthen their understanding of the application of the latest radio frequency identification technology in the logistics field, promote the popularization of radio frequency identification technology, and conduct application research on related cutting-edge technologies.
2. Digital Logistics
Many aspects of traditional logistics require manual intervention, and different companies may use different standards and different systems, so they cannot be fully digitized. Through the use of electronic labels and the promotion of corresponding international standards, the entire supply chain information can be fully shared, thereby making logistics digitalization possible.
What is the situation now? Usually we exchange information by telephone, fax or e-mail. In addition, people convey information about the goods. In fact, this is not what we want. We don’t want people to do these things. We want machines to do these things. The ideal state is that we don’t need manual systems for automatic information exchange. The significance of digital logistics is that through information sharing, all links in the supply chain are more closely connected, management is more efficient, and thus more profits are brought. Therefore, logistics companies will strive to advance the digitalization of logistics.
By instilling the concept of digital logistics into students in the practical teaching process, students can be more exposed to the most cutting-edge ideas, so as to stimulate their imagination and strive to improve our logistics system in the future.
3. Positioning in the warehouse management and distribution system
The logistics supply chain covers a wide range, from the supply of raw materials to the entire life cycle of the products purchased by customers. In this process, there are many logistics activities, mainly including purchasing, warehousing, distribution, packaging and transportation, retail, etc. One-sided pursuit of largeness and completeness not only wastes a lot of manpower and material resources, but also fails to highlight key points. Taking into account the difficulty of school implementation, we are positioned in the warehousing and distribution links, and concentrate limited resources to make these two areas bigger and stronger. On this basis, we use RFID technology to realize the information sharing between the two, thus organically combining warehousing and distribution. Breaking through the shortcomings of traditional manual work, handling business correctly and efficiently, allowing students to fully feel the charm of digital logistics. We have also fully considered the scalability of the system in order to achieve system expansion and upgrade when conditions permit in the future.
4. Schools and enterprises jointly build a training system
Combining the advantages of both companies and schools to promote the application of RFID technology in the field of warehousing and logistics. The RFID training system will serve the development, research and teaching of both parties.
Strengthen the school’s strength in the field of RFID logistics teaching through cooperation with Chiplink. So as to better provide students with a more practical logistics practice teaching environment. Through the operation and learning of some mature RFID software systems in the logistics field, students will strengthen their understanding of the management mode of the supply chain and the latest radio frequency identification technology, so that they can directly benefit and contribute to society.
3. Overview of RFID logistics training system
The new technology RFID will speed up the identification and tracking of manufactured products by manufacturers, logistics operators and retailers. This technology will not only improve the transparency of manufacturing operations, but also bring intelligent and advanced data analysis methods to warehouses, shipping channels, retail receiving factories, back-offices, and headquarters of retail and manufacturing organizations.
The RFID logistics training system will start with theoretical knowledge and progress layer by layer, fully integrating theory and practice. Through the reasonable design of the course, firstly, let students quickly grasp the basic knowledge of RFID, and then go through the supporting practice links. Fundamentally, the advantages of RFID and each link of the logistics industry are corresponded one by one. Through this training simulation system, we can understand the changes brought by RFID technology to the logistics industry and lay a solid foundation for cultivating future high-tech logistics talents.
Corelink will jointly develop, deploy, evaluate and use the RFID logistics training system with the school, hoping that the system will have the opportunity to further promote the value of the EPC standard to Chinese manufacturers and logistics companies, so as to accelerate the reform of domestic logistics efficiency pace of.
