Innovation of Houngfuh in sorting technology sets a model helping customers break through bottlenecks in international business
The main business of Jinjiang Land Port is to transport mails from overseas to China.In mail sorting process, it still largely depends on labour force. Manual sorting has the problems of low efficiency and high error rate. Frequent staff turnover also increases difficulties in management . Besides, the requirement to read massive code information is also a challenge.Houngfuh Group adopts an overall solution of "import and export mail inspection and cross-belt sorting system" to improve the situation and solve the above-mentioned problems.
Urgent demand with development of international import and export mail business
With the acceleration of China's integration into Global trade, especially the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce in recent years, the number of import and export mails from overseas has surged. Various data illustrate that the import and export mail business has grown rapidly. Recently,Premier Li Keqiang brought a good news of vigorously developing cross-border e-commerce.However, import and export mail sorting business is still labour-intensive and logistics automation is underdeveloped. The requirement for intelligent operation and automation seems more urgent than other industries.
Problems and demands of Jinjiang land port project
Jinjiang Land Port is a well-known modern logistics enterprise in China.During the research, Houngfuh found that the logistics project handles mails from abroad to China. Three problems exist in its mail sorting process:
1.Labor-intensive.It mainly depends on labour force. 119 staffs works just for the sorting process.
2. Small and medium packages and large daily volume. Over 80,000 pieces of mail need to be sorting by the equipment every day.
3. Complex code information and high requirement for reading.Mails are sent to different countries and regions around the world.
It is understood that Jinjiang Land Port is belong to the postal system. The biggest difference between its import and export mail sorting business and private enterprises’ is that it requires higher accuracy in data docking and higher requirements for logistics automation and intelligence.In addition, when purchasing logistics automation equipment, Jinjiang Land Port pays more attention to the quality, service and after-sale service.
Houngfuh's Mail Sorting Solutions
According to the characteristics and requirements of import and export mail sorting in Jinjiang
land port, Houngfuh proposed the overall solution of "import and export mail inspection and
cross belt sorting system".The solution consists of "Mail Inspection System" and "Cross Belt
Sorting System".
A. Advantages of mail cross-belt sorting system
Houngfuh is a technology leader in the field of sorting equipment. The core advantage of its cross-belt sorting system lies in the control system.The first is the stable electronic control system, including the package infeed and outfeed system. Using bilateral DC motors, the supply system runs continuously for 70,000 hours, and only needs to replace the brush once a year, which is stable and reliable.The second is the professional quality and quality control assurance of Houngfuh equipment.Houngfuh has nearly 40 years of experience in the production and service of sorting equipment.Practice has proved the premium performance of Houngfuh cross-belt sorting equipment: 99.99% accuracy, doubled capacity of mail inspection and sorting processing efficiency, passing trouble-free operation test for 180 consecutive days. In terms of service, Houngfuh insists on the following points: two-year warranty, regular inspection, 24-hour response, and solve problems within four hours. At present, the electronic control stability, mechanical professionalism and after-sales service of Houngfuh equipment are maintained at mid-to-up level in the industry.
B. Advantages of the mail inspection system
Code reading is the key of the import and export mail inspection system.Another well-known logistics equipment company participating in the bidding proposed to read the code in the main ring.From a professional point of view, reading code at the main ring inevitably has the following problems:
1. Code reading efficiency is low. If reading code at the main ring, weighing and reading code is not completed synchronously, leading easily to the system information delay.
2.Barcode reader cost is high. Due to barcode direction, reading the code at the top of a box is a common practice. But when the box tips over, 3-sided or 5-sided code reading is used.The cost for bar-code readers is much higher.
3.The success rate of code reading is not promising. It will dropped significantly when the bar code itself is of low quality or has folds, or the package is reflective, such as plastic bags.
How to improve the code reading accuracy and reduce the cost of code reading? Houngfuh proposes a new solution:
Complete the code reading at the infeed section in advance. Advanced industrial cameras are used to read codes and dynamic weighing is completed at the same time (cargo weight is accurate to ±5g). The benefit of reading code at the infeed section is the synchronization of weighing and reading information.With accurate information, the mail enters the main ring can avoid the overall incorrect information of the system compared to reading code at the main ring. The data is more stable, the reading rate is higher, and the number of abnormal parts can be reduced to smaller or even zero. Therefore,the accuracy and operational efficiency of cross-belt sorting are overall improved.
Effects and evaluation of Jinjiang Land Port Project.
The Jinjiang Land Port Project, from planning, designing, to equipment installation and testing, was totally completed about 20 days in advance, which was originally scheduled for a delivery period of 2 months. The secret is that Houngfuh builds an independent design team of more than 100 people. As soon as Houngfuh got the project, she selected the senior designers who had participated in import and export mail sorting projects and had rich experience in practice, and then broke down the task to each designer. It took only 1 week to complete the design task with high quality, greatly shorten the design time, and achieve the purpose of early delivery.
In addition to amazing short delivery time of Houngfuh, the customer is very satisfied with the product quality and appearance details of the cross-belt sorting equipment.Houngfuh's strong design and manufacturing capabilities have achieved high efficiency of cross-belt sorting system. With 99.99% accuracy, 100% customization ability, one-stop convenient procurement, long-term reliable product quality and early delivery as well as other services, Houngfuh continuously win good reputation from customers.
In this Jinjiang Land Port International export mail inspection and sorting case, Houngfuh cross-belt sorting system not only helps customers to decrease the error rate of mail sorting, but also improves the efficiency and accuracy of mail sorting operations, fully demonstrating Houngfuh's strong design and manufacturing capabilities + high product quality + short delivery + lifelong service. Choose Houngfuh to bring you surprises beyond expectations.
