Method and device for optimizing the number of grid openings in sorting equipment

Abstract

The present application discloses a method and a device for optimizing the number of bays of sorting equipment. The method includes: obtaining the target number of sorting equipment according to the target express processing volume and the performance of the sorting equipment, where the target number of sorting equipment is the initial number The maximum value of the sum of the number of sorting equipment and the sum of the number of sub-sorting equipment; according to the target number of sorting equipment, the number of compartments and the equipment cost, obtain the lowest total cost that meets the target express processing volume, and use The number of bays corresponding to the lowest cost is the final optimal number of bays. According to the data such as the target express processing volume and the performance of the sorting equipment, the present invention takes the number of the target sorting equipment, and calculates the cost according to the number of sorting equipment of the equipment, and finally obtains the number of the grids corresponding to the lowest cost is the final number of grids . This method can obtain the required number of grids, and can ensure the lowest equipment cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to the field of express sorting, in particular to sorting equipment, and in particular, to a method and device for optimizing the number of bays in sorting equipment. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of e-commerce, online shopping has become an indispensable part of people's lives, and the volume of express delivery has grown exponentially every year, with an annual growth rate of more than 40%. [0003] With the continuous increase of express business volume and the continuous increase of sorting flow, the shortcomings of sorting equipment that cannot flexibly increase production capacity have become increasingly obvious, which has caused certain problems to related enterprises. At present, most of the sorting centers of express companies use circular sorting equipment, but such equipment has a fixed grid, and the sorting capacity has an upper limit. There are problems such as high cost of ...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] With the continuous increase of express business volume and increasing sorting flow, the shortcomings of sorting equipment that cannot flexibly increase production capacity are becoming more and more obvious, which has caused certain troubles for related companies

At present, most of the sorting centers of express delivery companies use ring-shaped sorting equipment, but this kind of equipment has fixed slots, and there is an upper limit for sorting capacity. There are problems such as high cost of adjusting slots and sorting capacity, and difficulty in relocation.

[0004] At the same time, the number of slots for sorting equipment in the sorting centers of express companies is mostly determined after discussions with suppliers, and a set of scientific and reasonable calculation methods has not been formed. The decision on the number of slots is relatively affected by human subjective judgment factors. Large, easy to lead to excess investment in equipment, resulting in waste of resources
