1、仓储管理及设计外文翻译 外文翻译原文 Warehouse Management and Design Material Source:Supply Chain Engineering Useful Methods and Techniques Author:Alexandre Dolgui and Jean-Marie Proth Many if not all goods pass though a warehouse at some stage. The main activity of a warehouse is material handling, but it may happen
2、 that some operations packaging, cleaning, assembling, painting, etc. are performed also during storage. These significant aspects should be included in the analyses of the warehouse systems. The chapter begins with a description of warehouse types and their usefulness. The operations performed and
3、resources used are extensively studied. Special consideration is given to warehouse-management problems. Afterwards, the design stage is considered at length. The components of a warehouse are presented. In particular, storage in unit-load warehouses is covered. Then, the static warehouse-sizing pro
4、blem is considered, modeled and solved. Later, a dynamic warehouse-sizing problem is discussed. Finally, the chapter finishes by profoundly examining two major approaches for the problem of where to locate warehouses: the single-flow and multiflow hierarchical location models The major activity in a
5、 warehouse is material handling to store goods for a limited period. The concept of a warehouse is somewhat paradoxical in contemporary production systems. Reduction of inventories and more generally elimination of operations that do not provide added value is always on the agenda in order to lower
6、production costs. On the other hand, the use of a warehouse is inevitable for the several reasons given in Section 11.2.2. As a consequence, the management of warehouses requires a lot of attention: this aspect will be developed in Section11.4 after reviewing the basic operations and listing the pos
7、sible mistakes that may arise when performing these operations Some aspects of the design of warehouses, and in particular their sizing, are proposed in Section 11.5 Finally, Section 11.6 is dedicated to the warehouse-location models It should be noted that numerous approaches and techniques that ar
8、e used for warehouse design and management have already been mentioned in the previous chapters. This is the case for layout methods, RFID techniques or scheduling methods. We will not revisit them in the current chapter Different types of warehouses exist to serve diverse customers The most common
9、type, called “retailer supply warehouses” RSW, receives finished products from manufacturing systems located in the same country or from foreign suppliers and provides stocks for retail stores. Normally, such a warehouse serves routinely a given set of captive customers The second sort of warehouse,
10、 called “spare part warehouses” SPW, furnishes spare parts and serves clients and manufacturing systems. It is often associated with mass production cars, household appliance, computer systems, etc. The difference from RSW lies in that some orders are highly random, the demand for specific types of
11、parts may be relatively small and, last but not least, orders are usually very urgent. Thus, this requires that some of the parts be held in stock for years The third type denoted by “mail order selling” MOS, warehouses and ships orders to individuals and informs customers using mail order catalogs
12、or Internet sites. Orders are placed by the Internet, letter, or phone. Each individual order usually concerns a small number of items, but overall the variety and quantity of items at stake is commonly huge The last type, referred to as “special warehouses” SW, is relatively rare.These warehouses a
13、re usually rented for a long or short period of time. The products stored in such a warehouse are often expensive, bulky and seldom required The characteristics of the aforementioned warehouses are reported in Table 11.1 Taxonomy Based on Warehouse Functionalities Six types of warehouses can be iden
14、tified on the basis of their functions:Warehouses that are used to provide distribution services on behalf of their customers. These warehouses more often than not belong to a company that is also in charge of upstream and downstream transportation. They may serve several independent production syst
15、ems. This type of warehouse is often referred to as private warehouses. DHL, a well-known transport company, engages numerous private warehouses in its transportation network Public warehouses are essentially spaces that can be leased for limited periods to deal with short-term storage needs. A publ
16、ic warehouse may occasionally be used as a supplemental storage space for an overloaded private warehouse Warehouses that receive products in large quantities and dispatch a large number of small lots. This is common in the food industry, for instance. “Do it yourself” DIY centers is another example
17、 of this type of warehouse. They are also called distribution centers Warehouses that provide value-added services. They are usually part of production systems. Tasks performed in such entities are mainly: repackaging to make the products on sale or to prepare them for specific operations, labeling,
18、 assembling computers, for instance, etc Warehouses that store products for periodic delivery. This is the case when delivery must be made on a just-in-time basis. Examples of this type of warehouse can be found in assembly systems where the components are outsourcedcar or domestic appliance manufac
19、turing, for example Warehouses for fresh food products. These warehouses are refrigerated and often called climate-controlled warehouses Warehouse UsefulnessWarehouses are almost inevitable:To cope with the discrepancy between the relative slow supply chain response and rapid changes in quantities o
20、rdered. A warehouse helps to react quickly when demand changes abruptly. Note that the low reactivity of supply chains usually results from their complexity the number of companies involved and the multitude of stages in the production processes, the existence of quality problems that lead to rework
