How can smart logistics reduce the social logistics cost and promote the logistics industry to improve quality and efficiency?

In recent years, intelligent logistics supported by a new generation of information technology has flourished in China. Operation management is more efficient, and cargo transportation is more convenient. Smart logistics has opened up infinite possibilities for the transformation and upgrading of the logistics industry. How to build a smart logistics industry chain featuring "Internet plus logistics"? What convenience does smart logistics bring to enterprises and people?

In the business hall of luqiao district Yunxing Transportation Co., Ltd., Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, the driving situation and trajectory of thousands of trucks are jumping on the big screen in real time; In Xin 'an Town, Huazhou City, Guangdong Province, the shuttle robot transported the package from the town-level base station to the village through the smart logistics express line; Suning Nanjing Yuhua Logistics Base, the highest efficiency of automatic goods picking can reach 1200 pieces/hour, which is 10 times higher than manual goods picking. ...

From urban to rural areas, from sorting to transportation, the construction of smart logistics characterized by "Internet plus logistics" is accelerating, which has caused changes in the entire industrial chain. How will smart logistics reduce the social logistics cost and promote the logistics industry to improve quality and efficiency?

Platform digitalization

"At present, there are 0/096 trucks in transit/KLOC-0, and 580 temporarily stalled trucks ..." In the business hall of Yunxing Transportation Co., Ltd., the real-time updated truck operation data allows managers to know the vehicle information at any time and command and dispatch in time.

"The company has thousands of trucks, and it is almost impossible to know the driving conditions of all vehicles in real time. Nowadays, through' Internet plus logistics', the driving track of each car is clear at a glance. " Zhou Changhong, chairman of the company, said.

"Handwritten recording, telephone coordination and on-site scheduling have long been a thing of the past!" Zhou Changhong told reporters that in the past, the transportation command and dispatch of vehicles mainly depended on people, which was not only time-consuming and laborious, but also often faced problems such as high empty driving rate of trucks and low efficiency of shippers.

At present, from receiving orders, dispatching cars to freight settlement, it can be successfully completed through the online network platform. Since 20 14, the company has introduced vehicles with on-board GPS positioning system. Now, relying on the third-party data service platform, a vehicle management system has been built. "Using the Internet to leverage wisdom has greatly improved the management level."

Digital platform not only provides convenience for company management, but also brings benefits to drivers. Pan, a driver who has worked in the company for five years, said that in addition to the company's digital platform, there are many third-party platforms that can make the freight process more "intelligent".

"Before leaving, I just need to open the mobile APP truck help", enter keywords such as the place of departure, destination and model, and wait for more than ten minutes to receive customer orders. "I used to worry about the problem of running empty cars on the return trip, and Pan's income has also increased a lot.

"Digital empowerment makes' people, cars and goods' run faster and more accurately." Referring to the effectiveness of logistics informatization, Zhou Changhong said, "Now the company's vehicle idling rate has decreased by 10%, and the timely delivery rate has also increased to 95%."

Warehouse automation

Master Zhang, the driver, drove the truck to the unmanned warehouse of Nanjing Yuhua Logistics Base in Suning. With the help of the vehicle positioning system and the electronic fence in the smart park, when the driving distance is perceived to be within 20 kilometers, the relevant procedures in the warehouse are automatically started, and the workflow of picking, packaging and sorting related orders in the unmanned warehouse is orderly and busy.

The sorting process is also fully automated. The identification code attached to each item is like a "pager" that you carry with you. The goods needed by Master Zhang received the "Notice of Looking for Goods" issued by the warehouse, and one by one quickly arrived at the goods receiving area on the conveyor belt, which was transported by a circular unmanned forklift. After loading the goods, Master Zhang immediately confirmed on the mobile phone: "The goods are all ready."

"From people looking for goods to people looking for people, from radio frequency technology to artificial intelligence, warehousing has become more and more intelligent." Chen Jian, general manager of Logistics R&D Center of Suning Technology Group, said that the current smart warehousing is more reflected in the convenience brought by algorithm optimization. For example, which goods from all over the world are put in it, how to arrange the shortest delivery route, and how to put several things in different types of boxes are the most suitable ... all these depend on the superposition and optimization of the algorithm.

Recently, the Implementation Plan for Vigorously Developing Smart Logistics in Jiangsu Province to Promote Comprehensive Reform, Reduce Costs and Increase Efficiency was promulgated, and it is clear that five key projects will be implemented, including smart logistics city pilot, intelligent transformation pilot of logistics park, demonstration pilot of online freight platform, breakthrough pilot of key logistics technologies, and pilot of cultivating smart logistics subjects, to further develop smart logistics and promote cost reduction and increase efficiency.

Intelligent allocation

During the epidemic prevention and control period, Jingdong Logistics Intelligent Distribution Robot based on Beidou quickly sent medical materials delivered to Wuhan from all over the country to the hospital isolation area. Automatic obstacle avoidance, independent decision-making at intersections, and manual takeover in case of emergency. ...

The functions of Suning Logistics' 5G unmanned delivery vehicle are constantly improving, with an average running speed of 8km/h and a maximum speed of15 km/h. ..

Meituan's intelligent delivery scheduling system distributes consumer orders to unmanned delivery vehicles. After picking up the goods at the grocery store, the unmanned vehicle will automatically drive to the non-contact delivery point in the community. Intelligent technology is helpful to realize contactless delivery in the whole process.

In recent years, the "last mile" operation mode of various terminal services in logistics has been continuously innovated, and unmanned distribution has become one of the development trends of terminal services. Logistics enterprises strive to promote the development of unmanned distribution.

In addition, the intelligent express box also provides an effective supplement for terminal delivery. According to statistics, in 20 19, 406,000 smart express boxes were put into use in major cities, an increase of134,000, an increase of nearly 50%, and the box delivery rate exceeded 10%.

In rural areas, smart logistics makes rural distribution more convenient. In Xintang Village, Xin 'an Town, Huazhou City, all kinds of parcels "spit" out of the shuttle bus, and the staff sorted out the registration for the villagers to come and collect. On the other hand, the shuttle "eats" litchi, longan, guava, vegetables, etc., and transports fresh agricultural products out.

"Since I had Express, after I received the order on my mobile phone, I immediately picked it up in the field and handed it over to Express, which greatly saved time and freight." Zheng Yueming, a village cadre who is a fruit farmer, said.

Zheng Yueming's "Express Line" is a new smart logistics and transportation express line in the village. According to reports, this kind of "intelligent express delivery" includes base stations, low-altitude ropeways, intelligent shuttle cars (robots), transport boxes, cloud-based control systems and delivery equipment. The set load of each train is 65,438+000 kilograms, and the top speed is 60 kilometers per hour. Transportation100kg, walking100km only needs 3-5 yuan power, and it can run 24 hours.

By building logistics warehouses in the suburbs of the county, logistics base stations in towns and villages, and establishing receiving and dispatching points in administrative villages in cooperation with village convenience stores, most goods can travel back and forth between the county and administrative villages at low cost within 1 hour.
