With the rapid development of factory automation, computer integrated manufacturing system technology, and the widespread application of flexible manufacturing systems and automated three-dimensional warehouses, AGV is an important automated handling method for connecting and adjusting discrete logistics management systems to make operations continuous, and its applications The development of scope and technology level is more rapid. The following are the more significant advantages of using AGV handling robots:
1, Beautiful-improve the degree of appreciation, thereby improving the corporate image
2. Safety-A vehicle driven by humans cannot be sure of its driving path. The AGV's guidance path is very clear, thus greatly improving safety.
3. Cost control-The capital investment of the AGV system is short-term, and the wages of employees are long-term, and will continue to increase with inflation.
4. Easy maintenance-Infrared sensor and mechanical anti-collision can ensure AGV from collision and reduce failure rate.
5. Predictability-AGV will stop automatically when it encounters obstacles on the driving path, and artificially driven vehicles may be judged by human factors.
6. Improve logistics management-Thanks to the intelligent control inherent in the AGV system, goods can be placed in a more orderly manner, and the workshop is more tidy.
7. Smaller site requirements-AGVs have a much narrower laneway width than traditional forklifts. At the same time, for free-running AGVs, cargo can be accurately loaded and unloaded from conveyors and other mobile equipment.
8. Flexibility-The AGV system allows for maximum changes in path planning.
9. Scheduling ability-Because of the reliability of the AGV system, the AGV system has excellent scheduling capabilities.
10. Process flow-The AGV system should also be part of the process flow, it is the link that connects many processes together.
11. Long-distance transportation-AGV system can effectively carry out point-to-point transportation, especially suitable for long-distance transportation.
12. Special working environment-The special system can work in an environment where personnel are inaccessible.
