Dear readers! In September the CeMAT RUSSIA exhibition was held, which showed everyone that innovations and robotics are increasingly penetrating the logistics industry. We can safely say that many technologies are tested here, and only then they go out into the world. However, it is not only CeMAT RUSSIA that demonstrates the prevalence of the digital agenda.
Dear readers! This is the ninth issue of the journal, which turned out to be very rich and diverse. Traditionally, the issue is opened by an analyst. The material by Alina Nasyrova from the Market Guide Agency, dedicated to investments in warehouse complexes in Russia, recalls the importance of developing logistics infrastructure for the integrated development of regions.
Dear readers! We present to your attention the eighth issue of the magazine and its materials.
Annotation. The article provides examples of sorting devices (sorters) and conveyor systems that use the integration of cargo flows. An example of Oval Sorter performance is given based on possible processes for supplying goods and packaging for sorting. A mathematical and mechanical model for combining cargo flows is proposed to achieve absolutely fast and accurate correct positioning while maintaining minimum distances between goods, packages and increasing the speed of the main and supply conveyors. These models were simulated using MATLAB software. The results of the study were put into practice in a warehouse automation project for marketplace companies.
Key words. Sorting device, sorter, conveyor systems, MATLAB, sorter productivity, sorter speed, combining speed, friction, weight and dimensions.
