The conveyor tracks are crisscrossed, the conveyor belts are running at high speed, and the packages are "flying" on them, and are automatically sent to the corresponding sorting ports by the sorting devices... Recently, in the No. 3 warehouse of the Chengdu Transportation Center of YTO Express, the intelligent sorting equipment is running efficiently. The staff only needs to monitor the operation in real time and deal with abnormal and special-shaped items that are returned in time. "The new equipment realizes the automation of transmission and sorting through the system's intelligent recognition of express delivery bills, reduces the transit links of express delivery, greatly improves the operating efficiency, and more than doubles the overall efficiency." said a relevant person in charge of YTO Express.
Circulation efficiency is an important aspect of improving the overall efficiency of the national economy. An efficient circulation system can link production and consumption on a larger scale. The "Decision of the CPC Central Committee on Further Deepening Reform and Promoting China's Modernization" adopted at the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee proposed to "improve the circulation system, accelerate the development of the Internet of Things, improve the integrated circulation rules and standards, and reduce the logistics costs of the whole society."
In recent years, my country's circulation system has made significant progress, the national backbone circulation network has been gradually improved, new business forms and models in the circulation field have continued to emerge, the construction of a unified national market has been accelerated, and the institutional environment for the circulation of goods and factors has been significantly improved. However, it should also be noted that the degree of modernization of my country's circulation system is still not high, and there are still some bottlenecks that need to be cleared to make domestic and international circulation smoother.
To build a modern circulation system, it is necessary to consolidate the "hard foundation" and accelerate the formation of a safe and efficient logistics network that is connected internally and externally. Recently, COFCO Trade launched a new terminal expansion project. The project is undertaken by China Construction Eighth Engineering Bureau. It will transform and upgrade the warehousing, terminal berthing level, loading and unloading process equipment and corresponding infrastructure. Through advanced technology and efficient management, it will create an automated and digital smart terminal to improve the efficiency of grain circulation. The relevant person in charge of COFCO Trade introduced that it will strengthen central-local cooperation and regional linkage, enhance the control of the main channels and key logistics nodes of grain circulation, and ensure the efficient, stable and smooth supply chain of my country's grain logistics.
The construction of a modern circulation system requires deep integration with the digital economy, the digitization of the circulation system, the opening of the "main arteries" and the smooth flow of "microcirculation". The "Network Freight Development Insight Report" jointly compiled by the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing and Manbang Group shows that the scale of logistics service platforms represented by network freight has continued to expand, effectively promoting the reduction of costs and increase of efficiency in the logistics industry. According to statistics from the Platform Branch of the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing, more than 70% of traditional logistics companies have the intention to transform or expand their network freight business, and the scale of the industry will further expand.
Experts believe that it is necessary to continue to implement the new development concept, coordinate the construction of hardware and software in the circulation field, develop new technologies, new business forms and new models in circulation, improve institutional norms and standards in the circulation field, cultivate and strengthen modern logistics companies with international competitiveness, and provide more solid support for high-quality development.
