The "Smart Manufacturing" Password Contained in a Delivery Belt

2023-05-24

A rapidly moving conveyor belt is accurately identifying large and small express packages sent to various parts of the country. It can handle 96000 express items in an hour, with a sorting accuracy of 99.99%, which is about 200 times more efficient than previous manual sorting. It is the "Cross Belt Intelligent Sorting Equipment" independently innovatively developed in China that has driven this huge change. According to probability statistics, one out of every three express packages we receive is sorted by this equipment. It is this set of equipment that has broken the long-term monopoly of foreign manufacturers on China's intelligent logistics equipment market. This set of equipment is from Zhongke Weizhi Technology Co., Ltd. Entering the Zhongke Weizhi factory area located in Xishan District, Wuxi, Jiangsu, the "cross belt intelligent sorting equipment" is operating at high speed, and various express packages are constantly flowing. After sensing recognition, dynamic measurement, fast scanning, and other steps, they automatically turn to different "intersections" according to their addresses, accurately slide into collection bags, and wait to be distributed to thousands of households. According to the design of the fully automated sorting equipment of Zhongke Weizhi, the number of goods processed in one hour can reach 96000. During the peak period of popular e-commerce shopping festivals, large express delivery companies use this equipment, and a single transfer center can sort more than 10 million packages in one day. "Xi Yuxiang, Deputy General Manager of Zhongke Weizhi, told reporters. In the past, manual sorting was the main method, with one worker sorting around 500 items per hour, and sorting 96000 items would take approximately 200 hours for workers to complete without sleep or rest. From 200 to 1, behind the reduction in work time is an increase in productivity, but this process is not overnight. With the increasing importance of intelligent logistics equipment, automation of express sorting has gradually become an industry consensus. In early 2016, domestic manufacturers began to independently develop automatic sorting technology and related equipment. At that time, the import dependence of core components was high, far from keeping up with the development demand of China's express delivery business volume, which was the world's largest, "said Xi Yuxiang. It is also at this stage that Zhongke Micro has entered the intelligent logistics equipment industry, starting from the upstream core component layout. It is undeniable that at that time, there was a certain gap in key performance indicators such as sorting speed, equipment stability, and misclassification rate compared to similar products of large overseas intelligent logistics system integrators. Looking back at the initial situation, Xi Yuxiang sighed. Over the past 7 years, the company's flagship products have been continuously iteratively upgraded, with the "Cross Belt Intelligent Sorting Equipment" becoming a "filling gap" product in the field of logistics specialized equipment, helping express delivery centers achieve efficient and accurate sorting of large-scale packages, with sorting efficiency reaching international leading levels. Not only is the visible conveyor belt running faster and faster, but the logistics equipment industry in China has also risen accordingly. Behind the "running" of a conveyor belt, a series of cutting-edge technologies are needed, including intelligent manufacturing core components such as electric rollers, industrial grade barcode/QR code recognition, volume measurement, 2D/3D visual guidance positioning, defect detection, and more than 10 fields such as image processing, artificial intelligence, optics, computers, robots, and microelectronics. In order to continuously improve the sorting speed of large and small packages, the transformation of driving methods is crucial. Zhongke Micro
