Why Grocery Pickup Needs A Different Locker Workflow
Linqu 鄰取是位於中國鄭州的智慧櫃製造商。本方案面向超市、生鮮電商、便利店和藥局，把常溫、冷藏、冷凍、加熱分區，員工投放，顧客自助取貨，API/OMS 串接，簡訊通知和溫度紀錄整合成可複製的訂單交接流程。 The key issue is not only cold storage. The store must know who loaded the order, which compartment was used, when the customer was notified, and whether the order stayed inside the allowed time and temperature range.

Temperature Zones: Ambient, Chilled, Frozen, And Heated
Use ambient doors for dry goods, chilled doors for fresh food, frozen doors for frozen products, and heated doors for prepared meals. The exact mix should follow order data, dwell time, local climate, and food-safety rules.
System Architecture: POS, OMS, API, And Notifications
Linqu supports manual staff loading and API workflows. Orders can connect with POS, OMS, ecommerce, webhook, SMS, email, WhatsApp, or app notification. Buyers can compare API integration planning with the smart locker hardware and API package.
Capacity Planning For Supermarket Pickup Peaks
Size the project by peak waiting orders, not total daily orders. Review order mix, pickup dwell time, compartment size, overflow policy, and staff override rules before launch.
Small compartments for prescriptions and compact bags.
Medium compartments for grocery bags and prepared meals.
Large compartments for bulky retail bags or family orders.
Separate temperature zones where food safety requires it.
Clear overflow rules before the pilot starts.
Deployment Options: Front Store, Flow-Through, Curbside, Or Outdoor

Risk Control, Food Safety, And Exception Handling
Define timeout limits, temperature alerts, cleaning responsibility, refund triggers, staff permissions, and remote unlock logs. Sensitive categories such as pharmacy pickup may need ID verification and stricter dwell-time rules.
Pilot Plan, Cost Drivers, And 24-Hour Quote
Start with one store and 30-90 days of pickup data. Cost drivers include cabinet quantity, compartment mix, temperature modules, outdoor rating, branding, integration, SMS volume, and installation support. Linqu supports pilot MOQ from 1 unit and 24-hour quote response.
