I. Project Background
With the rapid development of the e-commerce and logistics industries, the work of organizing warehouse shelves has become increasingly onerous. Manual organization is inefficient and costly. To improve the efficiency of shelf organization and reduce the operating costs of enterprises, the Reach Robotics' composite lifting robot shelf organization solution has emerged. This solution aims to achieve efficient and automated organization of shelves by introducing intelligent lifting robots.
II. Solutions
Equipment Selection
(1) Composite Lifting Robot: It has functions such as vertical lifting, horizontal movement, and cargo grasping, adapting to shelves of different heights and widths.
(2) Shelf Identification System: Adopting RFID or QR code technology to achieve precise positioning of shelves.
(3) Control System: Integrating functions such as dispatching, monitoring, and data analysis to realize the intelligent dispatching and management of lifting robots.
Technical Solutions
(1) Shelf Organization Process:
① The composite lifting robot arrives at the designated shelf position according to the system instructions.
② It identifies the commodity information on the shelf and grasps the cargo to the designated position.
③ According to the shelf organization rules, it places the commodities on the shelf in an orderly manner.
④ After completing the organization, the composite lifting robot returns to the charging area and stands by.
(2) Shelf Positioning and Navigation:
① Utilize the shelf identification system to achieve precise positioning of the shelves by the composite lifting robot.
② Use laser navigation or visual navigation technology to ensure the smooth movement of the composite lifting robot among the shelves.
(3) Cargo Grasping and Placement
① Configure multiple grasping tools to adapt to cargos of different shapes and sizes.
② Through torque sensors and visual systems, achieve precise grasping and placement of cargos.
System Integration
(1) Connect with the Warehouse Management System (WMS) to obtain shelf organization tasks and commodity information in real time.
(2) Connect with the composite lifting robot control system to realize functions such as task dispatching, operation monitoring, and fault alarm.
(3) Connect with the charging management system to ensure that the lifting robots have sufficient power and guarantee the continuity of operations.
Personnel Training and After-sales Service
(1) Provide operators with training on the operation, maintenance, and fault handling of lifting robots.
(2) Set up an after-sales service team to provide 24-hour online technical support to ensure the stable operation of the system.
