[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions: A set of logistics control system for silicon steel raw material coils and strip coils during storage and processing, comprising:

[0005] Sales initiates the SAP process, logistics receives the procurement task, the purchased raw coils are synchronized to WMS, and coil labels are equipped for the coils (the coil labels have a buzzing search function, which can send a buzzer to find items, and can also be equipped with RFID for material information entry. The label surface is equipped with a QR code that can be scanned to bind material information. The typical positioning accuracy of the label is 10-30 cm, and the protection level is IP67) to transmit wireless signals, and the base station receives the signal. There is no need for manual PDA scanning, and the location of the coil and the information of the coil can be directly displayed in real time. The present invention is mainly aimed at the raw material warehouse, strip warehouse, allocation, and inventory work of silicon steel coils. The process list is as follows: raw material warehouse (purchase and storage of steel coils, allocation and storage, longitudinal cutting and return storage, longitudinal cutting and material out of the warehouse, original coil allocation and out of the warehouse, notching and material calling, notching and return), strip warehouse (strip material allocation and storage, strip warehouse calling empty material racks, strip material allocation and out of the warehouse, strip material packaging and material calling).

[0006] The advantages of the present invention are:

[0007] Real-time inventory management: Warehouse managers can understand the inventory situation in the warehouse in real time, control and dispatch inventory in a timely and accurate manner, and improve inventory security and turnover rate. Managers can use wireless positioning to detect the status of work-in-progress in real time;

[0008] Efficiency improvement: Through automation and information technology, the workflow and task allocation within the warehouse are optimized, work efficiency is improved, and human actions and time waste are reduced;

[0009] Coil tracking and tracing: Record the goods in and out of the warehouse, track the location of goods, update the status of goods, etc. Provide accurate cargo information and respond to customer inquiries and requests in a timely manner; Reduce errors: Reduce errors caused by subjective factors, such as inventory record errors, etc. The system provides real-time business data verification to remind operators to perform accurate operations, thereby reducing the error rate;

[0010] Data analysis and decision support: The system collects and analyzes a large amount of warehouse data, such as inventory turnover, work efficiency, cargo flow, etc. The system can generate various reports and indicators to help managers conduct decision analysis and optimization analysis, and provide digital support for the company's strategy formulation and optimization.

[0011] Reduce errors: Reduce errors caused by subjective factors, such as inventory record errors, etc. The system provides real-time business data verification, reminding operators to perform accurate operations, thereby reducing the error rate.

[0012] Accurately and efficiently manage the warehouse in an integrated manner: from the traditional "results-oriented" to "process-oriented"; from "data entry" to "data collection / integration", while being compatible with the original "data entry" mode; from "manual search for goods" to "guided positioning and picking up goods". The essence of material information management is the logic that the process is precisely controllable and the result is naturally correct. Specific implementation method:

[0014] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described below in combination with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0015] Embodiment 1:

[0016] Purchasing warehousing: SAP initiates a purchase order and pushes the purchase warehousing task to WMS. Operations notify warehouse personnel of vehicle arrival and remind the task in WMS. When the vehicle arrives at the designated location, the task information is automatically generated by the coil label (coil width, outer diameter, weight, etc.) transmitting a wireless signal to enter the warehouse. If the goods match, the document is automatically completed and pushed to SAP to complete the purchase order. If the goods do not match the task order, the operation is notified to request instructions for operation. Operations can assist in the forced completion of the task. The completed task results are fed back to SAP (warehousing / accounting results).

[0017] After the steel coil is scored and put into storage, the staff of the scoring production line will update the coil label information. The scoring information will be pushed to WMS when MES reports production, and the information will be synchronized to SAP to increase inventory.

[0018] The strips are rolled into the warehouse, and after longitudinal cutting, the strips are rolled and labeled. The labels can transmit wireless signals, and the base station receives the wireless signals to locate the position of the rolls in real time and obtain the information of the rolls.

[0019] The slitting return material is put into storage. The slitting production line personnel return the remaining material to the raw material warehouse, perform the return operation in MES, enter the return information, MES transmits the return task to WMS, the warehouse screen displays the return information, the trolley delivers the material to the return port, and the returned coil material updates the coil label and is put into storage.

[0020] Transfer to warehouse, SAP maintains the transfer to warehouse, after the transfer out, automatically pushes the transfer outbound order to WMS, WMS receives the transfer to warehouse task, waits for the operation to feedback to the vehicle, WMS reminds the pending task, the warehouse staff checks the goods and updates the label to enter the warehouse, if the goods do not match the task order, the operation is notified to request the instruction operation, and the operation can assist in the forced completion of the task. The completed task results are fed back to SAP (warehouse / accounting results).

[0021] For other incoming warehousing, there are other types of outgoing warehousing, such as the incoming warehousing of inventory surplus. The remarks are clearly written, and the task is initiated from SAP. The WMS warehouse staff receives the task, updates the coil label information, and feeds the results back to SAP to complete other incoming warehousing.

[0022] After the steel coil is scored and put into storage, the staff of the scoring production line will update the coil label information. The scoring information will be pushed to WMS when MES reports production, and the information will be synchronized to SAP to increase inventory.

[0023] When transferring warehouses and adjusting inventory, the warehouse administrator only needs to move the material to the storage location / area. There is no need to manually scan the materials. The warehouse can be directly transferred and the data can be updated to the WMS system.
