Features: The logistics industry is a rapidly developing emerging industry formed by integrating high technology and traditional industries. The logistics industry has become a major focus of global economic development and a new growth point. The logistics revolution will be one of the fundamental changes in the global economy in the 21st century and an important indicator of a country's level of productivity development. Modern logistics typically consists of transportation, material handling, warehousing, distribution, packaging, circulation processing, and information. To achieve efficient, fast, accurate, and safe logistics services, all these links must achieve a high degree of mechanization, automation, and informatization. Therefore, without the support of modern logistics facilities and equipment, there can be no implementation and operation of modern logistics. Modern logistics facilities and equipment play a vital and irreplaceable foundational role in the implementation of modern logistics. This textbook, "Logistics Facilities and Equipment," is primarily aimed at students majoring in logistics management and logistics equipment in practical undergraduate and vocational education. In terms of content, it focuses on introducing the role, types, functions, technical performance parameters, and development trends of transportation, loading and unloading, warehousing, distribution, packaging, circulation processing, and information technology facilities and equipment. The content is relatively comprehensive and detailed. At the same time, the textbook includes case studies and a certain number of exercises to meet the teaching needs of practical undergraduate and vocational education.
