Challenges in Pharmaceutical Supply Chains
The pharmaceutical industry faces dual pressures from regulatory policies and market demands. With the rise of internet-based healthcare and new retail models, distribution channels have multiplied while orders become increasingly fragmented. This complexity demands cost-controlled, agile warehouse solutions.
Intelligent Warehouse Transformation

Addressing challenges like complex SKU batches and decentralized deliveries, Changheng Smart designed an integrated B2B2C warehouse system featuring:
- Five functional zones: Bulk storage, split-case picking, recheck & packing, dispatch
- Space optimization: 50%+ storage density increase through multi-level workflows
- Parallel processing: Simultaneous operations across zones with flexible scalability
Bulk Order Processing
Three parallel lines in bulk storage area:
- Direct dispatch line: Ships full cases
- Recheck line: Transfers cases to inspection stations
- Replenishment line: Restocks split-case area (2,000 cases/hour capacity)
Key features:
- Full batch tracking compliant with pharmaceutical regulations
- Fire-rated flap gates isolate zones during emergencies

Split-Case Order Fulfillment

Three-tier conveyor system enables:
- Top layer: Automated replenishment from bulk storage
- Middle/lower layers: Case transfer between picking and packing
- Modular pusher diverters: Route cases to 300+ packing stations
Technology integration:
- Light-directed picking ensures 99.9% accuracy
- WMS-driven data tracking from storage to dispatch
System-Wide Synergy

By harmonizing human expertise with automated technologies, this solution:
- Optimizes staff workflows through ergonomic design
- Maintains strict temperature/humidity controls
- Enables multi-channel fulfillment without batch processing bottlenecks
