The warehouse scale level and throughput of each major express company vary, and according to the categories of super warehouse, first class warehouse, second class warehouse, network warehouse, etc., the scheme design will also be very different. For example, a multi-layer loop cross-belt sorter can be deployed in the express super warehouse, with a loop line length of up to 500m and grid of up to 500+ pcs. In addition, package size, size and weight affect sorting efficiency and stability. With the increasing demand for sorting and processing of special-shaped and large express packages, how to make it no longer difficult to deal with a large number of packages of different sizes and shapes?
