Next year, the robot will deliver the goods personally, look forward to it?

This year's "Double 11" e-commerce shopping festival has passed, all major e-commerce companies have a good record: Alibaba "Double 11" on the day of the whole network sales exceeded 120 billion, Jingdong Mall transaction volume over 60% of the same period last year, Amazon, Ocean Terminal Cross-border e-commerce is also involved... This e-commerce feast is behind the big test of logistics. In the past two weeks, reporters found that consumers complained that the logistics was slow and the loss of goods was significantly reduced compared with previous years. From the summary of the "Double 11" released by e-commerce giants, it can be seen that the application of big data and intelligent new logistics technology has played an important role in this. In the next year, "Double 11", the scene of robot delivery is expected to become a reality.

Grabbing in the warehouse to improve sorting efficiency

According to public data, the number of shipments on the “Double 11” was 657 million pieces. In addition to the various orders booked earlier, the data company predicted that the logistics shipments during the “Double 11” period exceeded 1 billion. As early as the first half of this year, Alibaba and Jingdong all indicated that they would solve the problem of logistics and distribution difficulties through intelligent application. Although everyone can't see the robot knocking on the door and sending the courier to the hand in the near future, but in the face of the "double 11" period of the billion package, the robot played an important role in improving efficiency.

For example, in the rookie warehouse of Alibaba, AGV robots, robotic arms, spider hands, and automatic balers are assembled into a complete set of “Transformers” placed on the production line. The rookie storage planning expert Yong Cheng demonstrated the robot picking process to the reporter. The AGV robot automatically recognizes the picking area and picks up the trucks between the shelves. The picking personnel only need to stand in the place to put the goods on the picking truck above the robot. Subsequent transfer to the automated assembly line... On both sides of the assembly line, the seeding robot is distributed, and the goods in the turnover box are taken out through the vacuum suction cup and transferred to the consumer's courier box, and the courier box will run to the automatic packaging area by itself. Here you can put the electronic face sheet and ship it out.

The technical expert of rookie storage, Ben Hua believes that automation is not a goal, but a means, logistics is always a mouse + cement industry. In terms of algorithm, the rookie can build a sorting algorithm framework in the warehouse, which can optimize the path according to the location and quantity of the goods. The picking distance in the warehouse is reduced by more than 10%, and the double "11" period is reduced by more than 15%. . However, Benhua also said frankly that the application of robots is still facing the problem of algorithm planning. If there is no good scheduling, the crash will happen, which will reduce the efficiency of picking.

Jingdong's intelligent logistics technology layout emphasizes the characteristics of “no one”: DELTA type sorting robot with 3D vision system, dynamic sorting, automatic replacement of pick-up and other functions, intelligent handling robot AGV capable of inertial navigation and automatic obstacle avoidance. SHUTTLE shelf shuttle with high running speed, accurate positioning, stable performance and safe monitoring, high repeatability, load of up to 165 kg, 6-axis robot with 6-axis arm range approaching 3 meters...Jingdong built a system The integrated logistics solution supports the independent realization of the entire process of sorting, handling, and unloading.

I will go out to the door in the next year.

   Why can't we see the robot when we receive the express delivery this year? In addition to the technology just released, there are a series of external factors that need to be dealt with: the coordination of property management in various communities, the safety maintenance of robots, and the transportation process may have different logos... Industry insiders and e-commerce giants all said that robot delivery It is expected to be put into practical use next year.

Xiao Jun, the president of Jingdong X Business Department, showed reporters a series of future logistics scenes during the interview: an auto-driving container fleet travels on the expressway and passes through the urban residential area. After parking, a group of small battery cars are driven from the container and sent directly. When the goods come to the door, the consumers only need to scan the code and receive the goods; the container fleet continues to travel and arrives in the rural areas. A group of drones take off automatically, each arrives at the customer's location, automatically hovering at a height of one meter, and handing over the goods to remote areas. The consumer quickly flies back to the container and waits for the next order...

The small G developed by Alibaba's rookie network is a robot that can walk on land. It is about 1 meter tall and can go out with 10 to 20 packages at a time. The online shopper is the commander of the small G. You can tell it where you are by mobile phone. The small G will plan the optimal delivery path and send the item to the designated location. The user can sign the receipt by electronic scanning.
