Warehousing optimization strategy for cold chain logistics

  Cold chain storage is also a low-temperature storage process based on refrigeration technology and refrigeration technology. If the control of the cold chain warehousing process is not accurate enough, it will lead to a decrease in product quality, as well as changes in organizational structure, color changes, damage in collision and extrusion, and the reproduction of microorganisms. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the efficient operation modes such as packaging and storage forms, storage and management methods, temperature and humidity recorders or temperature and humidity systems, and cold chain data management platforms in the cold chain warehousing process to effectively improve and optimize the cold chain warehousing management process and Make it comply with relevant regulations and standards, so that companies can find the best balance between operating costs and quality control, so as to fully guarantee the quality of products and create continuous value growth for customers.

   The cold chain storage system mainly includes unit appliances such as pallets, various shelves, handling equipment, temperature and humidity systems, and management information systems. Standardizing the loading unit and integrated unit of the cold chain storage, including the size of the packaging unit of the shelf, the size of the pallet and other supporting facilities, is the basis for determining the entire cold chain standard.

   Cold chain warehousing has high requirements for storage equipment and storage. When planning and designing the cold chain warehousing system, due to the non-standardization and customization of the loading unit and integrated unit of the cold chain warehousing, it is directly related to the technology of all cold chain docking facilities. The size is one of the basic technical data sources for the design and planning of cold chain storage facilities. It directly affects the establishment, planning, design and optimization of storage system solutions, the storage equipment library capacity and the operating efficiency of its handling equipment, and it is also not conducive to third-party cold storage facilities. Warehousing management and operation services between chain enterprises. Therefore, to realize the unitization and standardization of cold chain warehousing, through the best allocation of resources, the cold chain warehousing system can reduce the total cost of the logistics system and obtain the best economic benefits while providing satisfactory services to customers.

  1: The control elements of product characteristics include raw material quality and storage resistance. Different raw material storage temperature conditions, cooling methods and unit packaging requirements will vary. The quality change of refrigerated products mainly depends on the variable range of the temperature of the controlled thermometer, the temperature influence of the stored items, and even the temperature gradient between the surface temperature of the stored items and the internal temperature will also affect its quality. Some data indicate that the quality loss of food stored at room temperature for 1 hour may be equivalent to the quality loss of half a year of storage at -20°C.

 2: The control elements of cold chain storage equipment include: the quantity and quality of cold chain storage equipment and its layout and control management mode in the warehouse, temperature and humidity system and management operation platform, low temperature and fresh-keeping storage and transportation tools, etc. Choose suitable cold chain storage equipment for refrigeration and freezing methods and processes to ensure that cold chain storage meets the requirements of temperature, humidity, gas composition, and hygiene.

   3: The factors that affect the effect of refrigeration or freezing also include: the biochemical characteristics, cooling methods and refrigeration process conditions of the stored items, such as artificial adjustment of the ratio of oxygen and carbon dioxide under cold chain storage to slow down the physiological and biochemical effects of fresh products The speed of the reaction extends the shelf life of the stored items. Among them, some factors affect each other, such as cold chain storage equipment conditions have a direct impact on the processing technology, management and operation process.

   Through the design planning and thinking of the shelf structure under the cold chain storage, analyze the focus of the design and planning of the cold chain storage related equipment, strictly control each influencing factor, not only give full play to the performance advantages of each type of equipment, but also make use of different The characteristics of the equipment complement each other, optimize, rationalize, and manage from the perspective of the overall cold chain storage system to achieve the best cold chain storage operating efficiency and serve the entire cold chain system.

   According to the confirmed cold chain storage steel shelf structure plan, reasonable layout of temperature and humidity nodes, signal feedback wiring, lighting system, handling system, etc., establish a complete operation system and management operation platform, rationally allocate storage and freight, and establish reasonable storage operations , The frequency and sequence of entry and exit to ensure the quality and storage efficiency of cold chain storage.

   The main business of the room temperature cold chain logistics center includes warehousing, preliminary processing, product display, etc. The operation functional areas include tally area, temporary storage area, normal temperature area, shade area, cold storage area, low temperature freezing area, display area, circulation processing area, Picking areas, waste concentration areas, business areas, etc., need to analyze the functional areas, equipment layout, logistics and operation processes of the cold chain logistics center, and find areas with frequent internal logistics and relatively relatively logistics based on the analysis of logistics data between each functional area. In order to determine the closeness of each operation functional area, and combine the planned utilization area of the operation unit, rationally design the layout and simulate operation to determine a relatively reasonable cold chain storage solution. The steel shelf structure and its type are one of the more critical application technologies, which directly determine the storage volume, the shortest and shortest storage period of incoming goods, the turnover rate and its operating efficiency.

   At present, the most common steel shelf structure forms in cold chain storage systems are: drive-in shelves, push-back shelves, gravity shelves, electric mobile shelves, loft-type shelves and their logistics platforms, shuttle shelves, automatic three-dimensional warehouses, etc. Dense storage system. In addition, according to the characteristics of the stored items, warehouse structure and operation mode, etc., ground storage, pallet storage or other low-density storage rack structures, such as pallet rack structures, cantilever rack structures, etc., can be adopted. The first criteria for the evaluation of cold chain warehousing solutions are appropriate, efficient, and feasible to meet customer needs, followed by the economics of the cold chain warehousing solution itself, in order to compare or rationally integrate the advantages of various cold chain warehousing solutions, and according to The operation effect of the actual case, and the establishment of appropriate program evaluation indicators.

   According to statistics and calculations, the same 2000㎡ warehouse, the shuttle storage solution can increase the storage capacity by 1.8 times, and reduce the construction cost by 30%, and establish a low-cost, high-efficiency, and intelligent cold-chain storage system. It can reduce the customer's long-term operating costs, and can significantly improve the customer's logistics response speed and work efficiency.
