What's the difference between water spider and traditional forklift delivery?

The traditional production line or machine supply is to transport pallets to the place of use by forklift, including raw materials, process products and finished products.

Because there is no supermarket, the placement of materials is not FIFO. It is often found that the time for forklift drivers to pick up pallets is not fixed, and forklift drivers will spend a lot of time tossing these pallets to find the distributed materials.

The traditional supply form of forklift is just like the operation of taxi, with no fixed route and cycle time, and the distribution process of forklift is not standardized.

Forklift drivers operate according to the instructions or commands they receive, and there is no capacity control. That is, at some stages of the day, the transportation capacity involved in the orders received by the forklift is overloaded, but at other times, it cannot be fully loaded.

The load capacity of forklift trucks is also limited. Usually, it can only carry one pallet at a time, which is equivalent to only one carriage on the water spider train. Although sometimes two or three pallets may be piled on the forklift, the speed can be very fast during transportation, but in many cases, for safety or traffic reasons, the forklift must slow down.

In addition, the biggest risk of forklift lies in safety. There are many cases in which forklift trucks hit employees in the workshop.

The water spider's delivery truck is cheaper and easier to operate than the forklift system. Only motor heads and trucks are needed for assembly, and the number of trucks can be determined according to the demand, as long as the corners of the passage can pass flexibly.

Of course, the realization of the water spider system is not only to set up posts, but also closely related to balanced production, balancing the models and quantities, and then converting the orders into visual information according to a certain time (usually one hour), which is called the mixed king and guest box. Under this premise, we can design the distribution system of water spiders.

The design steps of water spider distribution mode are as follows:

1. Standardization of product containers.

2. Calculation and design of logistics supermarket (edge of unit line, logistics supermarket).

3. Design of distribution route.

4. Design of trailer

5. Trial operation

6. Adjustment and readjustment

7. Develop standardized operation of water spiders.

8. Establish the visual distribution management of water spiders.
