Description

Inspection method for multi-product delivery and suitable order delivery system {Chceking method for multi-article delivery and delivery system}

The present invention relates to an inspection method for the delivery of various types of goods and an order delivery system of suitable items. In particular, when a drug sales company or the like classifies a plurality of drugs in small quantities corresponding to a plurality of destinations, the corresponding drug release form ( The present invention relates to an inspection method and an order delivery system suitable for picking and packing according to the contents of Shipping invoice.

Usually, order medicines delivered to a pharmacy, a hospital, or the like are delivered by a vehicle transportation means from a drug sales company. The delivered medicines are received by the vendor or producer of each medicine, and the sales company distributes many different kinds of medicines according to the order at each pharmacy or hospital according to the required amount, and stores each drugstore. Will be shipped to you.

Drugs received from the vendor or producer of the drug by the vendor are stored in the warehouse. For example, a three-dimensional automated storage / retrieval system (AS / RS) or a forklift containing pallet rack is used. The chemicals stored in the chemical storage shelf are taken out by the picking worker based on the shipping information, packed in a packing box, and then inspected at the shipping table. Here, the shipment information refers to a shipping invoice in which drugs are ordered from a plurality of pharmacies or hospitals and discharged by pharmacy and hospital. That is, the picking list for each destination.

At this time, products such as medicines occupy almost 80% or more of the order quantity received from each ordering place in the form of a single item instead of a carton box or a pallet unit. Therefore, a drug sales company that delivers a small amount of a large variety of products to a large number of orders has a structure that can be picked (picking) and packing (packing) by manual picking operators.

In order to pick and deliver the small quantity products ordered by each ordering place at the drug sales company as described above, pick the relevant medicines loaded in the rack by the location of the drug sales warehouse in the correct quantity and type. must do it.

Currently, a drug sales company that specializes in selling and delivering a small amount of drugs in a variety of medicines is picking drugs loaded in a rack of a corresponding location manually while the picking operator checks the discharge operation instructions. When the picking is completed by manual as described above, the packing (checking whether the picking products and the number of ordered goods) through the inspection process to check whether the medicines of the picking drugs and the work order is packed and shipped.

Therefore, in a drug sales company that specializes in selling and delivering small quantities of various types of goods, logistics costs increase and delivery delays frequently occur due to the complexity of the inspection process for inspecting whether the picked goods are correct for each destination.

That is, in the conventional general picking, inspection and packing process, as shown in Fig. 1, the bar code set by the order is attached to an empty packing box, and the bar code is scanned and the contents corresponding to the work order are output through an output means such as a monitor. do. Accordingly, the monitor will display the product name, quantity and capacity of the drug to be picked, the delivery destination, etc. (S100).

After having a packing box for accommodating drugs in the work order, the product is picked from the shelf where the medicine is stored while visually checking the product list on the work order and picked in the packing box.

In this state, the worker removes the picked chemicals into the packing box one by one and performs individual barcode scanning (S120). In the case where the same product is included, the quantity of the corresponding chemicals can be accurately entered through the input means. It goes through the process of input (S130).

As described above, the process of removing and inspecting the medicine in the packing box is ended, and if the type, quantity, and capacity of the work order exactly match, the operator inputs that the inspection of the medicine is completed (S140). After the completion is made, the medicines drawn as described above are put back into the packing box and the packing operation is performed on the packing box.

In addition, when the packing operation for the packing box is completely made, the packing box is transported to the shipping place through the transport means (S160), and the shipping box checks the shipping destination through the barcode information on the surface of the packing box, so that the shipping procedure of logistics is performed. .

At this time, if an error occurs in the inspection process (S120) for individually identifying the bar code for the product in the packing box, if the error of the quantity, type or capacity, etc., the picking complement of the entire packing box will be made, The packing box in such a state is to go through the process (S160) after carrying out the packing operation (S150) after inputting that the inspection is completed through the re-inspection step (S170) (S140).

Accordingly, the inspection method for the picking chemicals as described above is extremely dependent on the personnel of the worker, the operator delays the inspection because the individual inspection of the picked chemicals as well as the repackaging for the packing must be repeated continuously Of course, there is a problem that inaccurate inspection is made due to reduced concentration.

That is, as described above, the drugs picked into the packing box by the worker are taken out to the outside of the carton box by the inspection worker and have to go through the barcode scanning and quantity input process, but the finished product is put into the carton box again. Since it has to be packed afterwards, it is acting as a direct cause of the inspection delay due to the inspection method that is too dependent on the labor force of the worker.

Since a large number of workers, such as a worker for barcode scanning, a worker for loading into a packing box, and a worker for packing, must be inputted at the same time, it is a situation that is indicated as a cause of a decrease in productivity due to an increase in labor cost and a rise in manufacturing cost. .
