Automated Guided Vehicle(AGV) — Speed up logistics with smart solutions
What is AGV?
(Automated Guided Vehicle, AGV for short), also commonly known as AGV trolley. It refers to a transport vehicle equipped with an automatic navigation device such as electromagnetic or optical, capable of traveling along a prescribed navigation path, with safety protection and various shifting functions. Automated guided vehicles are portable robots, also known as autonomous mobile robots (AMR), that follow long lines or wires marked on the ground or use radio waves, visual cameras, magnets or lasers for navigation. They are most often used in industrial applications to transport heavy materials around large industrial buildings, such as factories or warehouses. Handlers for industrial applications that do not require a driver use rechargeable batteries as their power source.
AGV trolley makes the safety of industrial production as well as the standardization has also been greatly improved,the following are the five advantages of AGV trolley.
1, AGV trolley instead of the original manual handling, significantly reducing the loss of human resources; and AGV trolley is highly combinable, high degree of automation, intelligent level is also high, and because AGV trolley is generally controlled by computer, so its driving path can be changed flexibly according to different needs.
2、Advanced: AGV trolley integrates light, machine, electricity and computer, and integrates the advanced theory and application technology in today’s science and technology. Strong guiding ability, high positioning accuracy, good automatic driving operation performance. Lighten the labor, reduce the loss of human operation; reduce personnel, save time, shorten the staffing; can enter and exit the place where personnel do not have easy access to optimize the production structure, save the human, material and financial resources.
3、Quick action: AGV trolley is characterized by wheeled movement, which has the advantages of quick action, high efficiency, simple structure, strong controllability and good safety. With the commonly used stacker cranes, monorail trolleys, conveyor belts, conveyor chains in material delivery, the activity area of AGV is not limited by the site, road and space. Therefore, in the automated logistics system, it can most fully embody its automaticity and flexibility to achieve efficient, economical and flexible unmanned production.AGV trolleys are widely used in factories and markets.
4、It is very simple to adjust correspondingly when the production layout changes, installation and debugging can be carried out at production time without affecting production, and the trajectory changes are flexible, so the layout can be changed at any time without affecting production.
5、Feature-rich: more comprehensive, support a variety of inventory needs, to achieve “goods to people” visual inventory; automatic calculation of warehouse storage space utilization, real-time adjustment of goods placement, higher efficiency in and out of the warehouse; support for flexible and configurable in and out of the warehouse strategy, to adapt to the diversification of different types of goods in and out of the warehouse frequency needs.
