The Development Trend of China 's Logistics Equipment
With the development of modern logistics, logistics equipment as its material basis to show the following aspects of the development trend.
1, large-scale and high-speed
Large-scale refers to the equipment capacity, size, ability is growing. Large-scale is the basic means to achieve the scale effect of logistics. One is to make up for their own speed is difficult to improve the defects and gradually large-scale, including shipping, rail transport, road transport. The maximum load capacity of the tanker reached 563,000 tons, the container ship was 6790TEU, and the load of 716,000 tons of ore was carried out in the rail freight. The truck carrying more than 5 tons was also developed: the large scale of the pipeline was in large diameter Pipeline construction, the largest diameter of 1220 mm. The large-scale transport of these basic to meet the basic logistics needs of large, continuous, stable characteristics. Second, the large size of air cargo aircraft. The cargo aircraft being developed can contain up to 300 tons and can load 30 40-foot (12.2-meter) standard containers at a time 50% to 100% higher than the current cargo capacity (including load and load capacity).
High speed refers to the operation speed of the equipment, running speed, recognition speed, operation speed greatly accelerated. Improve the speed of transport has always been a variety of modes of transport direction, mainly reflected in the "constant speed" limit breakthrough. There are three types of high-speed railroads being developed: one is the traditional high-speed railway, the most commercial value of Japanese and French technology, the current high-speed trains operating the largest commercial speed has reached 270 ~ 275km / h two is the pendulum train to Sweden As the representative, commercial speed has reached 200 ~ 250km / h, the third is the maglev railway, is currently in the commercial experimental stage, in 1998 in Japan to achieve the speed of 539km / h experimental speed. Germany, France in the high-speed railway on the high-speed freight trains have reached the maximum speed of 200km / h. With the gradual maturity of the technology and economic development, the general railway will eventually be replaced by high-speed railway. In the high-speed road transport is generally refers to the highway, the current countries are trying to build a highway network, as the backbone of road transport. Air transport, high speed refers to the supersonic, passenger supersonic has been achieved by the French Concorde aircraft. Two-speed (subsonic and supersonic) civil aircraft are being developed. In any case, supersonic will be the development direction of civil cargo aircraft. In the water, the hydrofoil speed has reached 70km / h, hovercraft speed is the highest, while the flying wing ship speed can reach 170km / h. In the pipeline transport, high-speed reflected in the high pressure, the United States Alaska crude oil pipeline maximum working pressure of 8.2MPa.
2, practical and lightweight
Because warehousing and logistics equipment is used in general occasions, the work is not very heavy, so easy to use, easy to maintain, operate, with durability, trouble-free and good economy, and high security, reliability and Environmental protection. This kind of equipment is large in size and wide in use. Considering the comprehensive benefit, it can reduce the appearance height, simplify the structure, reduce the cost, and reduce the running cost of the equipment.
3, specialization and generalization
With the diversity of logistics; logistics equipment varieties more and more constantly updated. Logistics activities of the system, consistency, economy, mobility, speed, requiring some equipment to the direction of specialization, there are some equipment to the generalization, standardization direction.
Logistics equipment specialization is to improve the logistics efficiency of the foundation, mainly reflected in two aspects, one specialized logistics equipment, the second is the logistics of specialization. Logistics equipment specialization is based on logistics tools as the main body of the logistics specialization, such as from the passenger and cargo mixed
Contained in the passenger and cargo classifieds, the emergence of specialized cargo transport aircraft, ships, cars and special vehicles and other equipment and facilities. Transport mode of specialization is typical of shipping, almost in the world to give up the passenger, mainly engaged in freight, pipeline transportation is the delivery of special goods and the development of a special mode of transport.
Generalization is mainly represented by the development of container transport. The development of highways and railroad vehicles and locomotives can directly realize the conversion of road and rail transport. The large container trailers for road transport can carry all the containers of sea, air and iron, as well as passenger and cargo aircraft, Water and air dual-use aircraft and passenger transport is being studied. Generalized means of transport for the logistics system to provide high efficiency of the supply chain to provide a basic guarantee. Generalized equipment can also achieve rapid conversion of logistics operations, can greatly improve the efficiency of logistics operations.
4, automation and intelligence
The combination of mechanical technology and electronic technology will be advanced microelectronics technology, power electronics technology, cable technology, hydraulic technology, fuzzy control technology concealed function to the mechanical drive and control system to achieve automation and intelligent logistics equipment will be the future The direction of development. For example, a new generation of large-scale high-performance electrical control device will be developed into a fully automated digital control system, the crane can be more flexible to improve the level of integrated automation, automated warehouse delivery trolley, intelligent van AHV , The development and application of intelligent transportation system (ITS) has attracted wide attention from all countries. In addition, satellite communications technology and computer, network and many other high-tech combination of logistics vehicle management technology is gradually being applied.
5, complete and systematic
Only when the composition of the logistics system equipment sets, matching, the logistics system is the most effective and most economical. In the logistics equipment on the basis of automation, through the computer to a variety of logistics equipment to form an integrated system, through the central control room control, coordination with the logistics system to form a different model of the best match and combination, will learn from each other Best utility. To this end, the complete and systematic logistics equipment has broad prospects for development, the future will focus on the development of the factory production and handling automation systems, distribution of goods distribution system, container handling system, automatic sorting and handling systems.
6, "green".
"Green" is to meet the environmental requirements, which involves two aspects: First, with the development of traction power and manufacturing, auxiliary materials, and so on, the second is related to the use. For the development of traction, we must improve the traction power, the second to effectively use energy, reduce pollution emissions, the use of clean energy and new power. For the use of factors, including the maintenance of the logistics, reasonable scheduling, proper use and so on.
