What is logistics? Introduce the functions and types of logistics

Logistics refers to the process by which general enterprises deliver products to consumers (customers). Items required for delivery to consumers, such as product storage and packaging, and simple product transportation, are included in the logistics process here.


Logistics, like "commercial distribution" and "gold distribution", is one of the components of the distribution. Logistics centralized management of this kind of logistics.


Through centralized management of logistics, a fast and waste-free logistics process is realized and the entire logistics is optimized.


This time, we will introduce the importance of logistics.


Logistics refers to the "movement of goods" by which products reach consumers. "Cargo flow" includes six functions: transportation, warehousing, cargo handling, packaging, circulation processing, and information processing. By linking these six functions, we can deliver products to consumers.


From the consumer's point of view, unless the ordered product has been delivered, it makes no sense to buy or sell. Failure to receive the product will also lose the credibility of consumers.


In order not to lose credibility, even for companies that sell products, smooth deployment of logistics is an important factor.


In order to develop smooth logistics, centralized management of logistics (cargo flow) is also important. This centralized management of distribution (cargo flow) is called logistics. Logistics realizes a waste-free logistics process, optimizing the entire logistics.

An indispensable automatic sorting robot in the supply chain?

 Automatic sorting robot , without human hands, autonomously complete equipment sorting work, or machine sorting work as you call it. It is said that in recent years, in logistics companies with labor shortages, robot activities have increased. However, even if you introduce robots just because it will be easier, you may end up with "just the cost is too high...". Recently, the development of intelligent robots is getting faster and faster. There are various types of automatic sorting robots. ① AGV It is called an automatic guided vehicle or an unmanned transportation robot. It is a robot that can operate automatically without manual operation and is used to move objects to a designated location. ② Arm type It is used to move products from one box to another, which is usually done manually. ③ Rail type From packaging to automation of the distribution area to a series of automations for carrying goods, it is a rail-mounted robot. The automatic sorting robot is very effective i

The development of handheld laser welding machine

 The development trend of handheld laser welding machine Continuous laser welding is divided into two types: fiber laser welding and semiconductor laser welding. The key difference is that the light spot of the optical fiber is very thin, and the light spot of the semiconductor is relatively large. It can be simply considered that the spot size is different. Fiber laser welding is 2-3 times faster than semiconductors, the key initial light spot is small, the kinetic energy is concentrated, and the welding penetration is good. Laser welding has achieved rapid development in recent years. Fiber laser welding has the advantage of speed, but it requires extremely high product workpieces. The gap is within 20 wires, and it is difficult to guarantee mass production for many hardware processing. To better solve this problem, the shaking fiber laser cutting head appeared. Simply speaking, shaking the laser cutting head is to draw a circle. It will be easier to understand by using a description
