Design of Automated Warehouse Based on Computer Simulation

Abstract

As/RS (Automated Storage and Retrieval System) is an important part of modern logistics System, which is widely used in various industries. At present, it has become one of the signs of enterprise production and management informatization. In this paper, the method of software simulation aided design is used to carry out the planning and design of finished tile warehouse in brick and tile factory. And through the simulation animation to see the warehouse each transportation, storage equipment and trailer, stacker and so on state, the simulation system will reflect the blocking and bottleneck position and situation in the system, the computer simulation results provide a direct reference and basis for the scheme optimization and improve the quality of the design. Introduction Automated Storage and retrieval is a kind of storage and retrieval system with the aid of mechanical facilities and computer management and control systems (including control systems and upper management systems) such as high-rise shelves, lane stackers, automatic sorting systems, automatic loading and unloading systems, peripheral facilities and equipment, etc. [1-3]. The automated storage and retrieval system consists of three-dimensional high-rise shelves, lane stacker Crane, storage and retrieval system, storage management control system and civil engineering and auxiliary facilities part composition. The design content includes the process of loading and unloading, the management of loading and unloading, the interface of loading and unloading, the application of conveying equipment (stacker, trailer) , the route of conveying system, and the design of storage space. [4-6] the planning and design of three-dimensional warehouse of finished tiles in brick and tile factory was carried out by using the method of software simulation aided design. Finally, a warehouse model with similar warehouse management strategy is established and its reliability and stability are verified by simulating the operation of the system Problem Description Business Background A brick and tile enterprise mainly produces hollow brick, standard brick, perforated brick, tile and other products, the factory purchased a new land plan for the construction of a warehouse inventory of more than 5500 items. The newly purchased land of the brick and tile factory covers an area of 3000 square meters and is of "L" type. Primitive Conditions 1Year working time: 251 Days; 2Working Hours: 3 Shifts, 24 hours a day 3The storage area of the warehouse has a net height of 20 meters, a net width of 55 meters and a net length of 22 meters 4finished brick size and quality: Each finished brick length of 24 cm, 5.3 cm wide, 11.5 cm high, the quality of each 2.5 kg. 5finished bricks and tiles cargo stacking specifications for 144 finished bricks and tiles per pallet, pallet and the total quality of goods is about 370kg.
