Intelligent sorting and packing system and sorting and packing method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an intelligent sorting and packing system. The intelligent sorting and packing system comprises a sorting work station, a packing work station and a control system electricallyconnected with the sorting work station and the packing work station. The sorting work station comprises a sorting visual device, a sorting robot and a code scanning device. The sorting visual deviceand the code scanning device are both electrically connected with the sorting robot. The control system comprises a database module and a controller. The controller is arranged to judge whether objectinformation identified by the sorting visual device is matched with object information corresponding to the code scanned by the code scanning device or not, when the object information identified bythe sorting visual device is matched with the object information corresponding to the code scanned by the code scanning device, the controller sends a sorting signal to the sorting robot, and when theobject information identified by the sorting visual device is not matched with the object information corresponding to the code scanned by the code scanning device, the controller generates an alarmsignal to a background system. The packing work station is arranged to conduct stacking and packing operation. A sorting and packing method of the intelligent sorting and packing system achieve unmanned sorting and packing operation of objects, the operation efficiency is improved, and the error rate and the labor cost are lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of logistics automation, in particular to an intelligent sorting and packing system and a sorting and packing method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the opening up of my country's retail industry, the competition in the retail industry has become increasingly fierce, and the field of competition has also expanded from the outside (such as store locations, consumers, etc.) to the inside (such as: business management, finance, logistics, etc.). Among them, the understanding that logistics is the "third profit source" is being more and more widely accepted, and some advanced logistics technology and operation methods are being learned and practiced by practitioners of retail logistics in my country. [0003] The sorting system in foreign countries started earlier, and the automated sorting system is generally used at present, while the sorting system in my country started late, and the technological...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At present, in the domestic logistics industry, sorting and packaging are mainly operated independently. Generally, after sorting is completed, they are manually dispatched to the packaging work area, which has high work intensity, low production efficiency, irregular operations, and high error rates. In addition, there has been a labor shortage in my country in recent years, and labor costs have increased accordingly; in addition, if the item code is wrongly pasted or printed incorrectly when the item is stored in the warehouse, it is necessary to add another manual process before the sorting operation. Checking the error-proofing process increases labor costs; in the process of sorting and packing, it is also prone to problems such as picking and packing the wrong quantity and type of items. It is often necessary to manually confirm and check for error-proofing before packing. Increased labor costs, otherwise the order will be delivered to the customer, and customer complaints, returns and other issues will easily occur, causing economic and reputation losses to the company
