3D打印技术对物流企业仓储的影响——以UPS公司为例

The Effect of 3D Printing Technology on Logistics Enterprises Storage Based on the Case of UPS

随着3D打印技术的快速发展,传统物流企业的管理模式必然会受到影响与冲击。聚焦快递类物流企业仓储模块,基于3D打印技术、新兴技术管理理论,运用案例研究法对UPS公司单案例做深入探索分析,剖析3D打印技术对UPS公司仓储过程的运作流程、职能调整、仓储布局、仓储成本等诸多方面的影响,进而启示其他快递类物流企业应了解3D打印技术对其仓储模块的全面影响。

With the rapid development of 3D printing technology, the management pattern of the traditional logistics com- panies would be affected. Based on the 3D printing technology and new emerging technology management theory, this paper focuses on the logistics enterprise storage module, using case studies method, analyzes in - depth the impacts brought by 3D printing technology including operational processes, functional adjustment, storage layout, storage costs and others, and then inspires other express logistics enterprises that they should be fully aware of the full impact brought by the 3D printing technology from storage module.
