Complete information tracking of the entire process of automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) shelving is a crucial aspect of modern warehouse management. It relies on advanced warehouse management systems (WMS) and automation technologies for implementation. Below is an overview of the information tracking for the entire process of ASRS shelving entry and exit:
I. Information Tracking of the Inbound Process
1. Receiving and Inspection :
o After goods arrive at the warehouse, receiving and inspection are conducted first. During this process, the WMS records detailed information about the goods, including type, quantity, specifications, and supplier.
o By scanning the goods' barcodes or RFID tags, the WMS can automatically match the goods information with the inbound order, ensuring accuracy.
2. Assigning Storage Locations :
The WMS assigns suitable storage locations based on the characteristics of the goods and the warehouse layout.
o Storage location assignment comprehensively considers factors such as the turnover rate, weight, and volume of the goods to ensure efficient and convenient storage.
3. Goods Handling and Shelving :
o Intelligent handling equipment (such as AGVs and stacker cranes) transports goods from the inbound dock to the designated storage location according to WMS instructions.
o During handling, the WMS tracks the location and status of the goods in real-time, ensuring accuracy and timeliness.
o After the goods reach the designated location, the WMS confirms the inbound process and updates the information in the inventory database.
II. Information Tracking of the Outbound Process
1. Order Processing and Picking :
o When there is an outbound requirement, the WMS determines the goods to be shipped and their location based on order information.
The WMS generates picking instructions and sends them to intelligent handling equipment or picking personnel.
2. Goods Handling and Outbound :
o Intelligent handling equipment retrieves goods from the designated location according to WMS instructions.
o During the retrieval process, the WMS verifies information to ensure that the correct goods are retrieved.
o After retrieval, the goods are transported to the outbound dock for packaging and shipment preparation.
3. Shipping and Inventory Update :
o After packaging and labeling at the outbound dock, the goods are ready for shipment.
The WMS records shipping information and updates the inventory database to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
III. Implementation of Full Process Information Tracking
1. WMS Application :
The WMS is the core of the ASRS shelving information tracking. It can record, track, and update goods information and status in real-time.
The WMS can also integrate with other enterprise management systems (such as ERP systems) to achieve information sharing and collaboration.
2. Application of Automation Technologies :
o Automated identification technologies (such as barcodes, QR codes, and RFID) play a significant role in goods inbound, outbound, and handling.
o By scanning the identification tags of the goods, the WMS can quickly and accurately obtain information and status.
o The application of intelligent handling equipment (such as AGVs and stacker cranes) realizes automated goods handling and shelving, improving efficiency and accuracy.
3. Monitoring and Management :
o The monitoring and management system monitors and manages the operation of the ASRS in real-time.
o Through the monitoring and management system, potential problems and faults can be identified and addressed promptly, ensuring stable operation.
Complete information tracking of the entire ASRS shelving process relies on the application of WMS and automation technologies. By recording, tracking, and updating goods information and status in real-time, the accuracy and efficiency of inbound and outbound processes can be ensured. The monitoring and management system also provides strong support for the stable operation of the ASRS.
