Abstract

Fourth Industry Revolution (Industry 4.0) is a new
era for all sectors and a transition to smart facilities. In this paper, Industry
4.0 approach at a logistics company is examined in transportation, warehousing,
loading/unloading and information service units. The purpose of this approach
is to evaluate Industry 4.0 principles in these service units. In this study, a
literature survey focusing on these issues is presented and the key principles
to design the logistics companies in this field are determined. The fuzzy
method is used to prioritize criteria, which are important for transition to
Industry 4.0 such as autonomous transportation, autonomous inventory
management, 3D warehouse, global resource planning, real time routing and
provides to understand the transition requirements. Additionally, current
applications, opportunities and suggestions for the logistics company are
presented.

TÜRK LOJİSTİK FİRMALARINDAN BİRİNDE ENDÜSTRİ 4.0’A GEÇİŞ

Abstract

Dördüncü
Sanayi Devrimi (Endüstri 4.0) tüm sektörler için yeni bir çağdır ve akıllı tesislere
geçiştir. Bu çalışmada, bir lojistik firmasında Endüstri 4.0 yaklaşımı; taşımacılık,
depolama, yükleme/boşaltma ve bilgi hizmetleri birimlerinde incelenmiştir. Bu
yaklaşımın amacı, Endüstri 4.0’ ın ilkelerini bu hizmet birimlerinde
değerlendirmektir. Çalışmada, bu konulara odaklanan bir literatür çalışması
sunulmuştur ve bu alanda lojistik firmalarını tasarlamak için gerekli temel ilkelere
karar verilmiştir. Endüstri 4.0’a geçiş için önemli olan otonom taşıma, otonom
stok yönetimi, 3D depolar, küresel kaynak planlama ve gerçek zamanlı rotalama
gibi kriterlerin önceliklendirilmesi için bir bulanık yöntem kullanılmıştır ve yöntem,
geçiş için gereklilikleri anlamaya yardımcı olmaktadır. Ayrıca, mevcut
uygulamalar, fırsatlar ve öneriler, lojistik firması için sunulmuştur.
