With the adjustment of China's economic structure, with the rise of labor costs and the acceleration of land value-added, it also promotes the development of traditional logistics operations that rely on manual labor to mechanization and automation. In addition, China's online shopping is growing rapidly every year, and the field of e-commerce continues to develop rapidly, which has brought about the rapid development of the market demand for express parcel logistics distribution, and has also brought about the rapid development of logistics automation, mechanization and information technology. The status and role of modern logistics in economic development are increasingly prominent, improve logistics efficiency, reduce logistics costs, and have become an important source of enhancing enterprise competitiveness and increasing profits. In this process, technical equipment as the basic support and an important part of the development of modern logistics, market demand has increased significantly.
The demand for automation and mechanization equipment in China's logistics system has increased significantly, and cold chain logistics technology and equipment and automated stereoscopic warehouse systems have entered a stage of rapid development. In particular, the rapid sorting system suitable for e-commerce logistics, intelligent terminal self-pickup container system, intelligent logistics information system and other faster development, modern information technology revolution not only has a huge impact on the field of e-commerce, but also will bring great changes to modern logistics technology and equipment, not only freight vehicle networking system and express delivery also intelligent logistics system is developing with each passing day. The optimization and transformation of big data on modern logistics system has attracted the attention of Amazon, Google and other information industry giants, and they have entered the field of logistics. The most advanced drone delivery technology has become the focus of UPS and SF Logistics, and has begun to carry out technical testing and tentative promotion and application. The modern logistics industry has quickly entered the stage of automation and information technology.
Most logistics enterprises have established management information systems, the construction of logistics information platforms has advanced rapidly, modern information technologies such as the Internet of Things and cloud computing have begun to apply, special logistics equipment such as loading and unloading, sorting and packaging, processing and distribution, and technologies such as smart labels, tracking and tracing, and path optimization have been rapidly promoted. Driven by these market demands, the rapid development of China's logistics equipment industry has gathered more and more enterprises, who spontaneously formed an upstream and downstream cooperation relationship in the process of jointly providing customers with logistics system planning and construction, and the industrial chain is increasingly clear, and the industry prospect will have a certain space for development.
