What does Industry 4.0 mean specifically for intralogistics? It goes without saying that the rapid development of the Internet is the basis for Industry 4.0. Keywords such as cloud computing (the provision of IT infrastructure and services such as storage, processing power or application software via the Internet), big data (huge and complex raw data from different fields), the Internet of Things (networking of devices, sensors, etc. via IP networks) - they are all closely linked to the development of the Internet. The key word in the field of intralogistics is: intelligent logistics. Today, we would like to introduce you to two star products, the Vertical Lift Container and the Vertical Rotary Container, and the software they utilize to provide an integrated, intelligent storage and picking solution. They fully reflect the industry keyword "intelligent logistics".
Huaheng offers numerous main features and unique add-on options that not only increase storage efficiency, but also ensure an ergonomic and safe operating environment in your warehouse.
01. Vertical lifting container
Product overview and working principle:
Vertical lifting container is to take the pallet as the storage unit, through the lifting and horizontal movement of the cradle, the pallet will be taken out or deposited into the appropriate cargo space. The lifting movement of the cradle adopts camera positioning with high precision and accurate address recognition; the horizontal movement adopts double chain coupling, which is smooth and reliable; the storage strategy adopts the principle of proximity from low to high.
It is mainly used for storing tools, cutting tools, parts, components, spare parts consumables, auxiliary materials, medicines, medical instruments and important document information, storage media ...... can be widely used in aerospace, military industry, shipbuilding, petrochemical industry, instrumentation, molds, electronics, medicine, food, retail and other industries.
Performance characteristics:
1. High efficiency: make full use of space: 6.9 ㎡ projection area (7m container) ≥ 100 ㎡ footprint (traditional shelves).
2. Intelligent: code-sweeping operation, goods to people, automatic measurement of the height of the goods, reasonable allocation of cargo space, to achieve high-density storage.
3. Reliable: laser positioning, accurate and reliable. Double chain coupling + RPP toothed synchronous belt, smooth operation, no maintenance.
4. Safe: operation port grating protection, to ensure personnel safety. Automatic detection of the operating state, abnormal conditions automatic power-off, to protect the goods and equipment.
5. Accuracy: 2D code + warehouse management system to ensure accurate access.
6. Informatization: open communication protocol, can be connected to the existing EPR/MES/WMS and other systems. Networked information processing, timely reflection of the state of warehousing.
7. Modularization: short supply and installation and commissioning cycle. Easy to disassemble, flexible and convenient layout adjustment can be self-contained, can also be used in multiple on-line.
8. Personalized configuration: multi-level management rights, multiple pick-up port, pallet output, temperature and humidity control, anti-static, etc..
Specification Model:
02. Vertical Rotating Containers
Product Overview:
Vertical rotating containers use pallets as storage units. The chain drive drives the circular rotation of the pallet. When the container is running, the system adopts an optimal algorithm to automatically select the shortest path, so that the materials can be retrieved quickly.
Performance Characteristics:
The main body of the vertical rotating cargo container is a frame structure, the chain drives the transmission body to run along the ring-type guide rail, and the speed and steering of the motor is controlled by PLC, frequency converter, and sensors to realize the automation control of the cargo container.
Working Principle:
1. High efficiency: higher storage density, faster access speed.
2. Intelligent: one key operation, goods to people. It can also be operated by scanning code, convenient and quick.
3. safe: access rights set, sliding door can be locked
4. Reliable: power failure emergency handle can manually control the equipment in case of power failure.
5. protection: closed space, properly stored, can avoid sunlight and dust infringement
6. Intuitive and easy to use: the system operation process can be visualized, the user interface design is friendly.
Specification Model:
Pallet Sorting:
03. Software

Stand-alone system architecture:
Features:
1. Interface
Standardized interface, easy to integrate with other systems quickly and effectively, complete data exchange. Customize the integration solution according to the demand, and achieve seamless data exchange with the customer's existing system.
2. Mode
◆ It can be used as an independent warehouse management system to manage a single money changer system, and it can also collaborate to manage multiple money changer systems;
◆ It can manage the information of goods outside the user's cashier;
◆ It can be operated as a subsidiary module of customer's existing EPR/WMS/MES system according to the interface;
◆ Remote management and control of the cashier system through WEB browser and client remote module.
3. Flexible
The system has single-click mode and multi-machine mode, function modules, flexible interface, completely independent development, can be customized according to user needs.
4. Simple
The system operation interface is simple and refreshing, good interactivity and easy to use.
5. Security
The system has a comprehensive rights management system, which can control the access rights of each pallet, and each operation of the system has tracking records to ensure the safety of goods.
6. Efficient
The system will automatically optimize the storage location according to the frequency of goods in and out, weight and other factors, while optimizing the order information, multiple orders at the same time shipping, improve the efficiency of goods in and out, saving time.
7. Accurate
The data management of inbound and outbound materials is accurate, which facilitates users to generate various reports.
8. Stable
With automatic data backup function, real-time monitoring and recording of container sensor information, early detection of abnormalities early reminder, failure can be quickly recovered.
