China is a chemical fiber power with production accounting for 70% of global production capacity. As production raw materials, chemical fiber products feature large production capacity, many categories, short inventory cycle and obvious seasonal sales. In order to satisfy huge market demands, chemical fiber enterprises perform production continuously. As a result, shipments at peak hours is 1.5 to 2 times of the UTS, even 3 to 4 times in a certain period. In the warehousing & logistics link, chemical fiber enterprises are confronted with many issues like high land and labor costs, lower manual operation efficiency and poor information traceability. In this context, chemical fiber industry is seeking intelligent upgrading of production and warehousing logistics with the aim to achieve high efficiency and high-quality production.
Industry trend
24h continuous production puts forward higher requirements on the equipment stability and efficiency.
As fibers are used as production raw materials, chemical fiber industry presents higher production capacity. Obvious difference in demands between peak-season and off-season generates demands for high inventory.
Goods pallets occupy large area, resulting in insufficient land space utilization.
Poor information traceability leads to higher demands for automation.
