2021-09-24 15:51
The capacity of the warehouse is generally fixed, how to put things, how to layout is the most reasonable? There is no best answer, because different items may be stored in different ways are not exactly the same.
Structure Analysis of Six Major Areas of Warehouse
In general, the warehouse is divided into six areas:
1. The first area is called the receiving area
There is a receiving area in the warehouse, and there should be a sign, or hang a sign from the ceiling and write "receiving area", or write "receiving area" when marking on the ground ". You can't receive the goods here today and over there tomorrow, that is to say, the pattern should be fixed and well laid out.
2. The second area is called bulk cargo area
Bulk cargo release area, the whole box put the whole box area, which will reduce the error. Because the whole box was placed quickly, I saw it in three or two times.
What is not enough is taken from the bulk cargo side, some of which are in cylinders. If it is not good, tie it up and quantify it. Every tie is fixed, and every tie is scattered in a special bulk cargo area. Don't unpack the boxes easily. This will speed up the distribution.
3. The third area is called sorting area
The sorting area is like a small hardware warehouse. When it feeds materials for production, it may be like grasping traditional Chinese medicine. Take a little here and a little there. Sorting is generally the main storage area.
4. The fourth area is called packing area
This area is dedicated to packing.
5. The fifth area is called assembly area
The delivery is scattered, not the whole batch, so there is a special area called the assembly area.
6. The sixth area is called office area
Warehouse management has an office area. No one can enter the office area. No one can go to the warehouse to see it. There are a lot of archives in the office area, especially the computer is not allowed to be touched by others. When the leader comes, he can show it to him, but don't let him move the keyboard.
Warehouse function analysis of major regional
1. Receiving area is also called quality inspection warehousing area
The main functions of the receiving area are unloading, acceptance, handling, warehousing and logging.
Among them, login is to register the account, and a ticket of goods must be booked immediately. Don't let the goods come in, remember them later, it is easy to forget and make mistakes. On the spot, there was a person counting and a person inputting it, so it was not easy to make errors.
2. Bulk cargo area is also called storage area
The signs in the storage area should be hung up and clearly written. This is the logo culture.
When it comes to logo culture, we must pay attention to it. At the door of the warehouse, we must use very eye-catching words to remind everyone that "fireworks are strictly prohibited and idle people are not allowed to enter", which means that this is an important place for the warehouse. It is strictly required that no smoking or fireworks are allowed within 10 meters around the warehouse, let alone entering it. In fact, the most dangerous warehouse is often a non-dangerous goods warehouse, because everyone in the dangerous goods warehouse is very alert to the fire, and everyone feels indifferent to the non-dangerous goods warehouse. Instead, the fire ban requirement is ignored, making it easier to have an accident.
3. Sorting in the sorting area is also called order sorting
Sorting in the sorting area is sometimes called order sorting, according to the order. Production line materials are also ordered, warehouse people are also ordered, sales and delivery are also ordered. Therefore, sorting is to sort the designated items transported to the packaging area according to the quantity.
4. The packaging area is also called the marking area
Another name for the packaging area is the marking area. In Taiwan-funded enterprises and Hong Kong-funded enterprises, they are called marking areas, and in the mainland they are called packaging areas. That is, the items of the order are packed into the box and the destination is clearly marked outside the box.
5. Assembled area
From the packaging area to the shipping area there is an area called the assembly area to complete the movement of items from the packaging area to the shipping area.
6. Office area
The office area is to track all the management work of receiving, warehousing, storage and delivery of goods. The office area must be set up. It is better to lock the office area separately and not fully open. Therefore, the door of the office area is best made of glass, which can be seen inside, but the average person cannot enter casually.
Distribution ratio of effective area of warehouse
It is difficult to find a unified standard, because the shape of the goods is not the same, for example, the steel pipe is very long, its warehouse utilization rate is relatively low, and the small hardware accessories, its warehouse utilization rate is very high. They need different channels and different widths.
There are general standards for reference, and each enterprise can adjust according to its own situation.
The general storage area should account for 30% to 60% of the effective area.
2. If it is lower than 30%, the utilization rate of this warehouse is too low. If it is higher than 60%, the utilization rate is relatively high, but if it is higher than 90%, it is too crowded.
3, the area of inspection of goods to reach 15% ~ 20%.
4, out of the warehouse to be transported occupied area of 10% ~ 15%.
Can not be generalized, but also to see how big the volume of the product, the characteristics of the product, these data are only the basic situation, can not be absolutely standardized. Each enterprise should set the relevant proportion according to the actual demand, to ensure that the goods in and out are very convenient. The big principle is convenience.
There is no doubt that the utilization rate of a volume, the higher the warehouse, the better. If the warehouse height is very high to make full use of it. The general requirement is that the goods are piled up to 50cm from the ceiling for ventilation and drenching, so do not fill them all. Some warehouses are very extreme. They are full on the ground and are not used on them. This is wrong. There are two indicators of warehouse utilization: one is area and the other is volume. To reasonable arrangements.
Six principles of warehouse space layout
Warehouse layout has six principles are:
1. Moving in a straight line
Try to avoid detours, preferably straight lines.
2. Single layer storage
Multi-layer accumulation is best avoided.
3. Efficient handling
The efficiency of handling must be high, and the speed of single-layer storage is relatively fast, but this requires a large area. From another point of view, that is, a pallet goes in and a pallet goes out, which can also be understood as a single layer.
4. Storage plan
The purchasing supplier must notify the warehouse in advance before delivery so that the warehouse has a plan. Making arrangements in advance reduces the workload of the warehouse. Some people are too busy, partly because they don't have a plan.
5. The passage should be as small as possible
The passage is enough, otherwise it will occupy the available area of the warehouse.
6, the use of height
Shelf is a way to effectively use the height of the warehouse, and the quality of the shelf is not necessarily the highest, it is enough.
