The four layer grid chute for small items is a core equipment in e-commerce warehousing that adapts to the efficient flow of small goods. With the spatial intensity of the four layer three-dimensional structure and the classification and sorting ability of multiple grid ports, it is mainly used in core links such as sorting and diversion of small goods, storage and temporary storage, and order fulfillment, which can greatly improve the utilization of storage space and operational efficiency. The specific application scenarios are as follows:
1、 Multi dimensional automated sorting and diversion
1. Sort by target stratum level
In the regional sorting center of e-commerce warehousing, the four levels of grid chutes can be assigned to different sorting levels, such as the first level corresponding to provincial regions, the second level corresponding to city level regions, the third level corresponding to district level regions, and the fourth level corresponding to end delivery stations. After scanning the code to identify the destination, the goods will be correctly guided to the corresponding grid, achieving a four level separation of "province city district station", greatly reducing the transfer link of manual sorting, and the daily sorting volume of a single chute can reach thousands of pieces.
2. Sort by order/product type
For different order types (such as spot orders, pre-sale orders, return and exchange orders) or product categories (3C small items, beauty and daily chemical products, clothing accessories) on e-commerce platforms, four layers of grid chutes can be specially divided. For example, the first layer stores 3C digital small items, the second layer stores beauty products, the third layer stores clothing accessories, and the fourth layer handles return and exchange products, achieving the correct separation of categories and order types, facilitating subsequent packaging, shipping, and after-sales processing.
3. Sort by cargo attributes
Combined with weighing and volume measuring equipment, the four layer grid chute can be subdivided according to the weight and size of the goods: heavy small items (1-3kg) enter the bottom grid with a more sturdy structure, and light small items (below 1kg) enter the upper grid; Large and small items enter the wide grid layer, while small items enter the narrow grid layer to avoid cargo jamming or falling, reducing sorting losses.
2、 Connection between warehouse temporary storage and order fulfillment
1. Wave picking and temporary storage
During the e-commerce promotion period, the warehouse will adopt a wave picking mode, and the four layer grid chute for small items can be used as a temporary storage unit after picking. Orders with different wave orders are placed in different grid layers, and staff can process them in sequence according to wave orders to avoid confusion and improve order fulfillment efficiency. At the same time, the four story structure can provide four times the temporary storage space of a single-layer chute within a limited footprint, adapting to the temporary storage needs of orders during major promotions.
2. Pre cache in the packaging area
In the packaging process of e-commerce warehousing, the four layer grid chute can be directly connected to the picking assembly line. The selected small items slide into the corresponding grid, and the packaging personnel can pick up and package from different grid layers at the same time, achieving an efficient operation mode of "one person, multiple grid", reducing personnel movement distance, and improving packaging efficiency by more than 30%.
3、 Optimization of Storage Space and Flexible Operations
1. Utilization of high-density storage space
The three-dimensional warehouse and sorting area space of e-commerce warehousing are usually tight. The vertical layered design of the four layer grid groove can increase the utilization rate of the flat space by four times, and can meet the sorting and temporary storage needs of small goods without the need for additional expansion of the site. For example, within a 10 square meter area, a four story chute can provide a grid capacity equivalent to a 40 square meter single-layer chute, which is particularly suitable for the spatial layout of small and medium-sized e-commerce warehouses.
2. Collaborate with automated equipment for operation
The small item four layer grid chute can seamlessly integrate with AGV robots, automated scanning equipment, sorting robotic arms, etc. After the scanning equipment recognizes the cargo information, the control system guides the cargo to the corresponding grid layer; AGV robots can automatically collect goods from the end of the chute and transfer them to the packaging or outbound area, achieving full process automation of "sorting temporary storage transfer", reducing labor costs, and controlling sorting error rates below 0.1%.
