In the entire logistics and distribution network, from procurement and order processing to sorting, stocking, distribution, processing, packaging, and delivery, the sorting center in the central processing link is the key factor to improve the power of the entire logistics distribution.
Weidmüller helps to automate logistics efficiently

In order to cope with the two-layer pressure brought about by e-commerce and the epidemic and ensure the power of logistics distribution, the above-mentioned express groups urgently need to rapidly expand the logistics production lines of each sorting center, especially to ensure that the sorting equipment can operate reliably without stopping in the continuous logistics sorting and transportation. At the same time, in the time-efficient logistics sorting, the temporary and rapid disposal of emergencies is improved.

Specific to the automatic sorting equipment, the distributed I/O products next to the conveyor are mainly used for on-site signal acquisition and data transmission, which has the advantage of saving wiring and labor costs. For distributed I/O, on the one hand, it needs to provide stable data transmission in a relatively small space, and on the other hand, it needs to have certain fault tolerance capabilities to support rapid recovery and fault finding.

For this purpose, the sorting equipment supplier of the express group has opted for the industry-leading UR20 remote I/O and the complete processing solution with a customized interface board for the I/O operation.

In the logistics sorting and transportation system, UR20 remote I/O is used to convert the collected field signals into data and send them to the PLC, and then output the PLC control instructions to drive the inverter and motor to transport the express to the designated storage location.

Weidmüller's UR20 with IP20 protection and customized interface boards offer a range of innovative value benefits for the sorting system:

01 High reliability and fault tolerance

In the face of problems such as downtime caused by relay failure, the operator is allowed to keep the delivery process going without causing a backlog by simply flipping the interface board switch manually. Because the logistics sorting center is located in the north and south cities that cross the large temperature difference, therefore, the I/O product needs a wide temperature planning, Weidmüller UR20 can maintain normal operation in the environment of -20-60°C, and its IP20 protection level can also easily cope with the on-site environment.

02Simplify O&M operations

It is easy to deal with high-frequency and error-prone problems such as high misconnection rate of electrical wiring of sorting equipment and repeated line checking. When there is a problem with the module or the terminal point, the UR20 will prompt it through the LED light, and each module supports online hot swapping, which is easy to split and does not affect the normal operation.

03Improve wiring power and accuracy

The on-site construction of the production line requires the access of many sensors, and Weidmüller UR20 chooses the PUSH IN wiring method, which can greatly improve the wiring power, and at the same time ensure error-free wiring through color coding, helping users to identify each signal channel more intuitively, saving manpower and cost for wiring and debugging. Compared with the original wiring method, the timeliness of the device can be improved by more than 50%, and the time for review and calibration can be reduced by more than 20%.

In fact, Weidmüller's UR20-centric distributed I/O processing solution has brought a series of innovative values to both the above-mentioned e-commerce sorting system and the logistics and transportation lines within the factory, greatly optimizing the prefabrication and on-site rapid delivery of the factory logistics system, and also providing a more reliable equipment operation guarantee for the logistics system.

As a global expert in electricity connection and automation, Weidmüller works with more and more logistics automation equipment manufacturers to help enterprises quickly build more efficient and accurate automated logistics systems, and truly live up to the trust of customers with ubiquitous innovation value.
