A method for automatic selection and distribution of cigarettes

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic sorting and allocation method of cigarettes. The method comprises the steps that: (a) allocation cigarette channels are selected; (b) vertical machine mixed cigarette channels are arranged; (c) an allocation mode is selected; (d) multi-cigarette-channel brands and allocated cigarette channel number are configured; (e) multi-cigarette-channel brand allocation is carried out; (f) single-cigarette-channel brand allocation is carried out; (g) dynamic cigarette channels are configured; (h) non-dynamic cigarette channels are configured; (i) dynamic flexible bin-shift allocation is carried out; (j) vertical machine mixed cigarette channel allocation is carried out; (k) it is determined that whether an allocation result is consistent with inventory; (l) static flexible bin-shift allocation is carried out; and (m) a spare part bin-mix allocation process is carried out. According to the sorting method, a traditional method is improved and optimized. With the optimization on dynamic cigarette allocation method of sorting line cigarette channels and steps in the spare part bin, cigarette sorting efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for sorting cigarettes, in particular to a method for sorting and distributing flexible cigarettes with high efficiency and less floor space. Background technique [0002] With the development of the cigarette industry, there are more cigarette brands than before, so the selection and distribution of cigarettes is far more important than before. The sorting system currently used in cigarette sorting mainly has three types of sorting equipment models: electronic Label-assisted sorting mode, combined semi-automatic sorting mode, combined automatic sorting mode, the main difference is the sorting efficiency and labor intensity, the electronic tag-assisted sorting mode is the sorting efficiency is low and the manual labor intensity is the highest The combined automatic sorting mode has the highest sorting efficiency and the lowest manual labor intensity, and the combined semi-automatic sorting mode is in between. The highe...

Cigarettes are also affected by the inventory when distributing the flues. When allocating the flues, the stock cigarettes must be allocated to the corresponding stock flues. If the inventory of AB cigarettes is concentrated on the same sub-line, it will cause uneven distribution of each sub-line. , it is possible that only one sub-line is producing smoke most of the time, which greatly affects the sorting efficiency, and the same type of cigarette can only be assigned to two flues at most. If the sales of cigarettes of this brand account for more than 25%, then most of the time the sorting The lines are all waiting for the sorting of these two flues, and the sorting efficiency is also greatly affected. At the same time, the division of cigarette ABC and the allocation of flues are also fixed. Since the cigarette brands ordered by each customer are different, the division Brands classified as Class AB may be only Class C brands in some customer orders, while cigarettes classified as Class C brands may be Class AB in some customer orders, which will cause unreasonable distribution of flue ducts and some Sometimes the flues of Class AB cigarettes are abundant, while the flues of Class C cigarettes are allocated too little, which affects the sorting efficiency

And it is also affected by the order structure of customers. If the cigarettes ordered by customers are quite different, the difference between ABC cigarettes between customers will also be large, and the sorting efficiency will be greatly affected.
