What are the guidelines for the placement of warehouse racks?
In order to achieve the highest power and storage capacity, warehouse shelves and goods must comply with certain guidelines:
1. The sales volume is large or the promotional products should be placed on the shelves close to the exit or entrance of the warehouse;
2. Products with large sales volume or promotional products should be placed in the gold position in the center of the gold shelf.
The reason why the shelves close to the exit of the warehouse are not placed on high-volume products is that the goods in the center of the shelf do not require pickers to bend their feet, which is conducive to fast picking and fast shipping. Products with low sales are placed at the bottom or top of the shelf.
However, in the detailed fulfillment process, the demand is handled according to the detailed status of the shelf. For example, the gold position of the gold shelf has been taken over by other products, so the promotional products must be placed on the secondary gold shelf. In addition, sellers need to decide who owns the gold position of promotional products and long-term products based on their own conditions. However, the general rule is the same: place large-volume and larger products close to the export.
Picking road
There is no optimal option for picking roads and picking methods, as long as the most suitable option. The planning of picking roads and picking methods relies on the placement and identification of shelves and products.
Small warehouses have limited storage products and limited shipments, so there is no need for messy picking roads and picking methods. Larger warehouses store more products and have larger shipments. The labor of pickers will be relatively large. Reasonable and scientific picking roads and picking methods can greatly provide picking power and reduce pickers’ labor. Workload.
Regarding warehouse shelves, improving space utilization and maximizing storage space scale is the most important issue. The greater the space utilization, the greater the economic benefit. Since the shelf is a shelf for storing goods, when planning the shelf, you should plan the length and width of the shelf according to the shape, size, weight and other data of the goods themselves, and plan the shelf and the shelf directly to the interval, etc., generally against the wall Single-row shelves should be placed on the shelves, and double-row shelves should be placed on the shelves that are not against the wall.
In the planning of warehouse shelf placement, we should not only pay attention to the utilization rate of supply space, but also not just consider how many shelves can be placed at most. As the space utilization rate of the warehouse is higher, the feasibility and convenience of actual operation will be more important. Decline, for example, a single row of shelves placed against a wall is a manifestation of practical operation. If a double row is placed against the side of the wall, the warehouse shelves in the inner row are not convenient for storing and storing goods. If the warehouse shelves that are not against the wall are placed in a single row, it will form a waste of space. It is believed that each row of shelves is spaced, and the interval is generally set to 1 meter, so that it is convenient to access the goods.
After all, it is necessary to fully understand the warehouse environment such as warehouse area, type, passage, height, ground, fire protection equipment, etc.; related equipment: such as forklifts, stackers, elevators. Aisle for forklift demand. Turn length, etc. Compliance with the flow of goods must be smooth, whether it is manual or mechanical.
