With the rapid development of science and technology, intelligent logistics has become an important driving force for industry change。In this context, APROLIS-Heli Leasing has successfully cooperated with Hangfork to jointly open a new chapter of intelligent logistics。
The significance of intelligent logistics in enterprise application
Intelligent logistics is the development direction of modern logistics, with the continuous development of information technology and artificial intelligence technology, intelligent means can realize the automation, information and digitalization of the logistics process, improve the efficiency and accuracy of logistics, and better meet the diversified needs of modern society。
Intelligent logistics can help enterprises reduce costs and improve economic benefits. Through data analysis and other means, intelligent logistics can help enterprises make more scientific and reasonable decisions and improve their competitiveness and profitability。
Intelligent logistics can provide a better customer experience, provide more transparent and accurate logistics services through real-time monitoring and tracking of the logistics process, and enhance customer trust and satisfaction。At the same time, intelligent logistics can also be customized according to customer needs to provide more intimate and professional services。
Current development stage of intelligent logistics
At present, after experiencing initial development, intelligent logistics has entered a period of rapid development。At this stage, the application range of intelligent logistics is becoming wider and wider, and all aspects from warehousing, transportation to distribution have begun to realize intelligence。The function of intelligent logistics system is becoming more and more powerful, providing enterprises with more efficient and accurate services。At the same time, the government has also introduced relevant policies to provide strong policy support for the development of intelligent logistics。Intelligent logistics is in a period of rapid development, but it still needs some time to explore and practice to reach maturity。
AGV plays a vital role in intelligent logistics, AGV as intelligent handling equipment has distinct characteristics: flexibility;Significantly improve logistics efficiency;Reduce cost。AGV plays an irreplaceable role in intelligent logistics。It has the advantages of improving logistics efficiency, reducing costs and enhancing security, and is one of the key equipment to realize intelligent logistics。AGV is currently in a stage of continuous technological development and application field expansion。With the rapid development of technologies such as automation, intelligent manufacturing and the Internet of Things, the technical level and application range of AGVs are also constantly improving and expanding。
AGV has evolved from simple material handling applications to automated warehousing systems, production line logistics, unmanned chemical plants and other fields, becoming an important part of intelligent manufacturing。
Agvs are also developing in a more intelligent and autonomous direction, such as realizing advanced functions such as autonomous navigation, path planning, and task scheduling, to further improve the automation and intelligence level of AGVs。
Agvs are also being integrated with other logistics equipment and information systems to form a more intelligent logistics system。For example, AGVs can be used in conjunction with intelligent forklifts, automatic stackers and other equipment to achieve the automation and intelligent management of the entire warehouse or production floor。
Domestic leading - AGV leasing model
The advantages of leasing handling equipment are obvious, with reduced initial costs, flexibility, maintenance, risk control, improved management efficiency and energy saving and environmental protection benefits。For enterprises that need to use equipment, leasing is an economical, environmentally friendly and efficient choice。However, at present, there are few suppliers that can provide AGV leasing model in China, and even equipment manufacturing units are reluctant to provide leasing solutions。The main reasons for fewer rental models are:
First, the market awareness is low
In China, the AGV industry started relatively late compared with developed countries, and the market awareness is relatively low。Many enterprises have insufficient understanding of AGV and insufficient understanding of the benefits it brings, and are more inclined to choose traditional handling equipment。In addition, because the AGV leasing model is relatively unfamiliar in the domestic market, the promotion efforts of leasing companies are not enough, resulting in low market awareness。
Second, high demand for customization
AGV equipment has strong customization characteristics, which needs to be designed and produced according to the specific needs of enterprises。Under the leasing model, companies cannot customize equipment according to their needs as they can in the purchase model。In addition, due to the customized characteristics of AGV equipment, leasing companies face high cost pressure when purchasing equipment, resulting in relatively high rental prices, affecting the leasing willingness of enterprises。
Third, the lease return cycle is long
The return cycle of AGV equipment leasing is relatively long, and it is difficult for enterprises to quickly achieve cost recovery during the lease period。In the context of fierce market competition, enterprises are more inclined to choose the purchase model in order to achieve faster cost recovery。
Fourth, high maintenance costs
Agvs require regular maintenance, and maintenance costs are high。In the leasing mode, this part of the cost needs to be borne by the lessor, which further increases the difficulty of the AGV leasing mode。
As a rare multi-brand, all-round, one-stop service provider of rental handling equipment solutions, APROLIS-Heli Leasing will also provide AGV leasing business to meet the rapid development of the current market。
Although the AGV and its leasing model are not well known in China, in the European market our parent company Aprolis Group, as a professional company in the field of material handling equipment, has accumulated valuable AGV (Automated guided Vehicle) leasing experience and has leased nearly 10,000 AGVs。These experience values allow us not to be afraid to advertise our ability and strength to provide AGV leasing solutions and services to our customers。
Aprolis-heli Leasing has established strategic partnerships with a number of AGV (Autonomous Guided Vehicle) manufacturers，By establishing partnerships with AGV manufacturers of various brands，Aprolis-heli Leasing is able to provide a variety of AGV solutions according to the different scenarios and needs of the customer site，To provide customers with more efficient and reliable material handling services。
With its expertise and integration capabilities and knowledge of AGVs (Autonomous Guided Vehicles) of various brands, Aprolis Leasing is able to provide its customers with tailor-made AGV solutions that help them improve material handling efficiency, reduce operating costs and optimize automated production processes。
In the trend of intelligent logistics, APROLIS-Heli Leasing has taken a solid step, laying the foundation for the development of intelligent logistics。We will continue to uphold the "customer first" service concept, committed to providing customers with efficient and reliable intelligent logistics solutions。In the future, we believe that APROLIS-Heli Leasing will become a leader in the field of intelligent logistics and lead the industry change。
