Presumably, people who deal with logistics know one or two of the logistics. There are many ways to logistics. Different logistics methods will also have different factors affect constraints. The classification of logistics has different definitions from different angles. Logistics transportation methods mainly include 5 types of railway transportation, aviation transportation, road transportation, pipeline transportation, and water transportation transportation. They each have advantages and disadvantages. Let's take a closer look at the classification and transportation methods of logistics.


1. What are the classification methods of logistics

What are the logistics classification? There are the following categories according to different standards:

1. The historical process of development: logistics classification is traditional logistics, comprehensive logistics and modern logistics.

2. The flow of logistics is different: it can be divided into introverted logistics and external logistics.

3. The category of logistics: divided into social logistics and corporate logistics.

4. Different in the field of role: Logistics is divided into logistics and circulation in the field of production and circulation.

5. Different subjects that provide services: Divide logistics into agent logistics and internal logistics of production enterprises.




2. Classification of common logistics

1. Supply of logistics activities for downstream customers with raw materials, components or other items. The supply logistics of an enterprise is also the procurement logistics of its downstream enterprises. In modern logistics, the operating rights of the physical flow of raw materials, components or other items are generally called supply logistics instead of purchasing logistics.

2. Production logistics: During the production process, manufacturing companies, logistics activities in the enterprise, products, semi -finished products, finished products, etc. in the enterprise.

3. Sales logistics: Logistics activities that occur during the process of selling products in production enterprises and circulation enterprises.

4. Reverse logistics: The logistics activities caused by the items from the downstream of the supply chain to the upstream movement are also called reverse logistics.

5. Recycling Logistics: Returning, returning items and packaging containers used by the demand to return from the demand party to the supplier.

6. Waste logistics: The items that lose the original value in economic activities will be collected, classified, processed, packaged, packaged, stored, and stored in the logistics activities specializing in special treatment venues.



3. Introduction to 5 major transportation methods of logistics

Logistics transportation methods are generally divided into these five categories: ① railway transportation; ② aviation transportation; ③ road transportation; ④ pipeline transportation; ⑤ waterway transportation. What are the cheapest logistics methods for these logistics transportation modes?


1. Railway transportation

Because railway transportation can carry more goods, it is a way of transportation with a large transportation capacity. Railway transportation has relatively many advantages. For example The restrictions of natural conditions such as weather are also relatively small and can operate throughout the year. Due to the estimated time, the time control is more accurate and the safety is higher; but the disadvantage is that the railway transportation occupies a lot, the loss is relatively high, and the capital is huge at the same time.


2. Air transportation

Aviation's transportation method is the fastest, but the transportation capacity is relatively small, the nuclear load must be controlled, the cost is a relatively high type, and the technical requirements for aviation personnel are relatively high. The high price of aircraft transportation is relatively high, and the energy consumption is relatively large.


3. Highway transportation

The transportation time is short -distance transport, so the speed is relatively fast. At the same time, it is relatively small due to the weather and climate such as terrain. It is generally not delayed in normal weather transportation. It is also a more flexible way of transportation. However, due to the generally used vehicles used by road transportation, the transportation capacity is relatively small, and at the same time, it will also produce certain environmental pollution. It is a kind of transportation that is high in energy and is more cost -effective.


4. Pipeline transportation

What are the logistics transportation methods? The method of pipeline transportation belongs to a relatively safe and reliable, non -pollution, small energy consumption, and low cost. Because of the transportation of dedicated pipelines, it occupies a small area and can achieve a large number of transportation. Continuous transportation, less energy consumption is also one of the advantages! However, there are also their shortcomings, that is, strong dedication, can only transport oil, natural gas and solid slurry (such as coal, etc.). Due to the fixed lines, the requirements for pipeline settings are relatively high, and investment is also a relatively large one. kind!


5. Water transportation

Water transportation can carry more cargo, and the energy consumption is relatively small; but the influencing factors of natural conditions are indeed very large. It is necessary to stop transportation in advance when encountering bad weather, so the control of time is not so strong.
