Warehouse layout should be as follows:
There is a saying that control in the future is not as good as control in the event, and control in the event is not as good as control in advance.But in the process of the warehouse, the three links are indispensable, complement each other, make the warehouse processing system more intact, become a closed-loop system.
Advance planning
No matter what work is done, there should be preparation or plan at the end of storage. In this way, the probability of success will be higher. On the contrary, the probability of success will be very small.It means that if you don’t plan an assignment well, then wait to lose.Therefore, whether in the east or in the west, we all attach great importance to prior planning.
the measure of area
In order to calculate the required warehouse area, we need to roughly calculate the required warehouse area according to the previous sales data, basic packaging data (cartons, pallets), supplier delivery frequency, customer delivery frequency, set mix / max quantity, set safety stock quantity and other data, and also include the area of the channel, so as to ensure that the forklift has enough working space.
system
Barcoding, the end of efficient warehouse processing, about the data warehousing, data picking, semi-finished work reporting, product warehousing, product shipping and so on all touch the links of material movement, the end of active data collection, to ensure the power and accuracy of data input.Is Warehouse Management System WMS used?
WMS is an integrated warehouse system processing software with barcoding skills.When the enterprise chooses the suitable WMS, it needs to know the demand of the warehouse and the power that may be brought.The processing level needs to measure input and output.For example, the Manhattan warehouse processing system is worth millions of dollars, which is a huge investment.Some domestic warehouse processing software can also end some basic functions, the price is much more affordable.&How to finish data docking with ERP software?
Whether using barcoding or WMS, we should consider the end of data docking with ERP software.In this way, the operation power can be greatly increased, the repeated labor can be prevented, and the data accuracy can be improved.
In SAP system, it can only be assigned to storagelocation, but not to storageBin.It is assumed that the warehouse uses WMS software to achieve binlocation allocation and positioning.
When picking goods, according to FIFO rules, we can take the initiative to pick goods in the system, and print pickinglist and other functions.
However, assuming that WMS does not end the docking with SAP’s inventory data, it must repeat the operation in SAP and WMS system every time when it does the stock in and stock out. In this way, it increases the workload of data operators and makes some mistakes.
goods shelves
High rise shelves vs. flat warehouse, automated storage represents different processing concepts.The utilization rate of high-rise shelf space needs to cooperate with WMS system; the plane warehouse focuses on visual processing, and uses pulley car and turnover box, so that the practical inventory can be known at a glance, which is convenient for inventory checking.
layout
Activity direction: single logistics direction.Warehouse products in the warehouse, inspection, storage address, according to a direction of activities.To arrange the material supply, product warehousing and product outbound for the production line, it is also necessary to plan according to the single logistics direction.Circuitous transportation and alternate transportation should be reduced as far as possible.
The data warehouse should be close to the production line: & nbsp; to facilitate feeding the production line.After the model change, the temporarily unnecessary data should also be transported back to the data warehouse.
How to set up line side inventory: & nbsp; for stations with similar process and stable production demand, we can consider setting up pull type line side supermarket.
The product warehouse planning can set a, B and C categories according to the sales amount, and place A-type products in the simplest area for picking and tallying.
