1. Determine the inventory volume and the overall warehouse size

1. Inventory: To determine the number of goods units stored in the warehouse at the same time according to the historical quantity and rules of entering and leaving the warehouse and the goods yard.

2. The number of storage and handling machinery used in the warehouse depends on the maximum warehousing frequency of the warehouse.

3. Warehouse height: it should not be designed too high, and 10~20 meters is appropriate, and there is no definite proportional relationship between length, width and height. The inventory quantity is N cargo units, the number of roadways is A, and the shelf height direction can be set with B layer, so each row of shelves shall have column D in the horizontal direction: D=N/2AB

4. The total length of the shelf L can be determined according to the number of columns D and the lateral size of each shelf.

5. The total length of the shelf line is known L, and the width and height of the warehouse are known. According to the actual needs, the overall size of the warehouse can be determined by considering the office, the control and control room, the turning of the handling machinery and other auxiliary facilities.

2. Check and calculate the warehousing handling cycle and warehousing capacity Generally speaking, the outbound, warehousing and handling cycle of the three-dimensional warehouse mainly depends on the operation cycle time of the roadway stacking crane

3. Arrangement of automatic stereo warehouse: the connection mode between high-rise shelf area and operation area 1. Forklift-entry and exit platform mode 2. Entry and exit platform mode of automatic guide trolley

3. The conveyor mode of the automatic guide trolley

4. Forklift (or lift) continuous conveyor mode

5. Adapt to the situation: high warehousing frequency or required delivery in a planned way according to the variety, quantity and time every day 6. Stacker is a kind of gap operation machinery, which needs to set up several stackers, and forklift and lift are also gap operation machinery. In order to solve the problem of coordination between stacker, forklift, lift and continuous conveyor, the continuous conveyor usually has the function of accumulation and discharge.
