Its material management is extremely complex, with over 100,000 SKUs, and the traditional manual operation mode can no longer meet the needs of customized requirements and market response speed.<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, Geek+ and Siemens Switch Shanghai joined hands to launch the automation transformation project. After three stages of iterative upgrading, from the initial deployment of basic automation to in-depth system integration, and finally to the realization of full-process digitalization and the landing of a &#8220;lights-out factory&#8221;. This process not only solved the current pain points but also explored a reusable smart logistics paradigm for the discrete manufacturing industry.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Cooperation Comments: Early Layout, In-depth Collaboration to Overcome Unprecedented Industry Challenges<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;To win the future, in addition to thinking far, we must act early! Since 2019, through in-depth cooperation between the two teams of Siemens and Geek+, we have overcome many challenges such as no existing solutions for reference and ensuring that the company&#8217;s normal production and operation are not affected. Finally, we have created a full-process automatic material handling solution from the warehouse to the production line that is suitable for the discrete manufacturing industry.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2014\u2014 Shu Changhong, Financial Director of Electrical &amp; Automation Division, Smart Infrastructure Group, Siemens Ltd., China<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Robot Legion + System Revolution: Reconstructing the &#8220;Digital DNA&#8221; of the Factory<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nThe core of the smart logistics system built by Geek+ for Siemens Switch Shanghai lies in a &#8220;robot legion&#8221; of over 100 units and multiple models, coupled with a profound system revolution.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Collaborative Operation of Six Models: Seamless Connection of the Entire Process Under AI Scheduling<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Under the AI intelligent scheduling of Geek+&#8217;s robot system, the shelf-picking robot P800, container-picking robot RS8, small container handling robot P40, storage robot X1200, intelligent handling robot MP1000R, and unmanned forklift F12ML work together, seamlessly connecting the entire process from receiving, quality inspection, shelving, storage, picking, distribution to production line feeding.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">In-depth System Integration: Building an Intelligent Collaborative Network Upstream and Downstream of the Supply Chain<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Geek+ and Siemens Switch Shanghai have built an intelligent collaborative network throughout the upstream and downstream of the supply chain through in-depth integration of core systems such as WMS, MES, and SAP.<\/p>\n<p>The system realizes real-time data intercommunication throughout the process from raw material procurement to production and distribution. The upstream supplier inventory data is intelligently linked with the production plan to achieve JIT accurate replenishment, significantly improving the inventory turnover rate. The downstream production line demand data is immediately fed back to the warehousing system, and through PFEP lean path planning, ensuring that materials are delivered on time.<\/p>\n<p>This end-to-end intelligent collaboration has significantly improved the factory&#8217;s ability to respond to customized needs, achieving the lean digital goal of &#8220;data-driven decision-making and system-empowered manufacturing&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Space Revolution with Intelligent Zoning: &#8220;Small Area&#8221; Releases &#8220;Large Production Capacity&#8221;<br \/>\nSiemens Switch Shanghai has a complex material system with 100,000-level SKUs, covering large steel components, medium-sized standard parts, and micro electronic components. Now, the dynamic storage location allocation system accurately zones materials according to their size characteristics, and different types of robots cooperate to complete intelligent access and handling:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Small parts are stored in 6.9-meter-high small silos of container robots;<\/li>\n<li>Medium-sized parts are stored in four-way shuttle racking;<\/li>\n<li>Large\/irregular parts are stored on high-altitude steel platforms, accessed and handled by shelf robots.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This not only saves the cost of leasing external warehouses for irregular parts but also reduces the area of small silos by more than 60%.
