The pharmaceutical industry sorting project undertaken by Zhangzhou Duffu Machinery is a leading intelligent logistics solution in China. The system is based on DWS (Dynamic Weighing Scan Code Measurement) technology, which enables precise sorting of whole boxes of drugs and disassembled drugs, and constructs an efficient and intelligent pharmaceutical circulation system.
The project is equipped with 13 composite operation lines, with clear division of labor: the first composite line is dedicated to processing full boxes of drugs, and information labels are packaged by automatic labeling machines; The remaining 12 composite lines are responsible for the review and sorting of dismantled drugs, using manual labeling to ensure accurate entry of scattered drug information. After the labeling process of all composite lines is completed, the drug boxes are smoothly connected to the main line through the lifting and transfer device, and are transported in an orderly manner through the drum fixed conveyor line, accurately entering the DWS workstation under specific spacing control.
DWS equipment relies on high-precision sensors and intelligent algorithms to collect real-time volume and weight data of drug boxes, synchronously read barcode information, and transmit the data back to WMS (Warehouse Management System) in real time. WMS quickly parses and generates sorting instructions based on preset logistics rules, and DWS drives the balance wheel sorting mechanism accordingly to accurately guide the drugs to the corresponding sorting ports.
At the sorting end, visual inspection units are deployed at each sorting port, using machine vision technology to intelligently identify whether the box has completed the reinforcement of the packing belt. When an unmarked box is detected, the system automatically triggers the strapping machine to perform reinforcement operations; The box that has been taped is directly transported to the tail of the line and enters the final packaging stage. The entire system achieves automated control and quality traceability of the entire pharmaceutical sorting process through deep collaboration between intelligent devices and information systems, providing a solid guarantee for the efficient operation of the pharmaceutical supply chain.
