The use of SmartBox container for agrobusiness logistic processes optimization

. The problems of agrobusiness transport and logistics processes optimization using SMART BOX container and administration software package, and optimization of container delivery routes are considered. Current software product can be used as a computer laboratory for training students in the specialty "Organization of transport processes."


Introduction
The use of modern logistics tools together with applied software products will create more favorable working conditions for agribusiness wholesale distribution centers (ORCs). Currently, ORCs are widely used in the world [1][2][3][4][5][6].
The structure of distribution centers is as follows: USA -24%, China -14%, Japan -6%, United Kingdom -4%, Germany -4%, Netherlands, France, Iran -2%, Spain, Turkey, Iran, Mexico, Italy -1%, other countries -7%. In Russia, in 2014, in connection with the rapid development of agricultural cooperatives and the reorientation of consumers to local food products, the program development to create ORCs began.
ORCs are focused on the provision of services for the completion, packaging and delivery of products for retailers, restaurants, fast food chains, etc. The use of robotics in the ORC will allow to collect many individual orders quickly and without errors.
The article proposes to use folding transcontainer (FTC) -transformer SmаrtBоx, designed and created in the production association LLC ICC "Mysl" and an application computer program to optimize the container delivery route. Currently, computer programs are widely used in the world as training laboratories. [1][2][3][4][5][6]. The proposed software product is also used as a computer laboratory for scientific and educational purposes. Folding transcontainer automatically and autonomously transformed into both working and folded state. Due to balancing system presence on gas springs and solid lubricant coatings [7][8][9][10][11][12][13], energy costs are reduced, which makes it possible to automate the transformation process using low-power drive.

Container managing
To manage the container, an information system (IS) of remote administration is used. This IP allows to identify the customer, accept applications, transmit sensor readings about the stock being moved by mass-volume characteristics, including tracking its location in space and time with reference to geodata coordinates (GLONASS, GPS, etc.) on the map server, and remotely safety control during operation.

Delivery route optimization SmаrtBоx FTC
The software package "OptimRoute" for optimizing delivery route of SmartBox FTC to ORCs and loaded containers to consumers: restaurants, private traders, etc., in urban conditions, developed on the basis of mathematical modeling methods. There were used such methods as: cellular automation method, electrodynamic modeling method, as well as large database of field observations on Rostov-on-Don routes problem sections, taking into account traffic intensity characteristics and traffic congestion. Created database allows manual program control in the absence of the Internet.
Work with the program begins with the preparation of auxiliary files and required libraries binder. To perform these actions, you can use the link: https://drive.gооgle.cоm/оpen?id=1ZWNfy30hK0m56M30Dj2Y8ZNM71eKАkfа.
In Library, the data and executable file (exe) must be placed in the same directory. An example of the correct file location is shown at Figure 4. To start working with the program, you must run «Bus.exe» file. The possible window menu state after starting is shown at Figures 5,6. We load the map of the city or region with which we will work into the window on the right. We load necessary stops in case of delivery of the FTC or container with the goods to several customers into the window on the left. Database stores customers' addresses, necessary stops, which are loaded into the window. The driver is notified of the departure time.

Conclusions
The use of Smart Box folding transcontainer together with the software package for remote administration and optimization of agricultural products delivery routes effectively optimizes the time costs of transport enterprises, as well as processes related to the human factor -up to 30%, reduces loading / unloading time to 25, reduces the share empty runs of vehicles and up to 75% reduces logistics costs for the transport of empty containers.
In the conditions of increasing service and competition between enterprises, the use of Smart Box folding transcontainer will make the work of carriers and agribusiness producers more profitable. In addition, this software product can be used for educational purposes as student laboratory for optimization and modeling of transport processes for students and undergraduates in the field of "Organization of transport processes".
