With the advent of industry 4.0, intelligence and informatization are rapidly popularized and applied in logistics. As the material basis of logistics system, logistics equipment has been improved and developed. Under the demand of reducing cost and increasing efficiency, AGV robot with its unique advantages has made great achievements in the field of logistics.
Several advantages of AGV robot
1、 Highly automated
Through the AGV central control system for data analysis and remote control, the control system is seamlessly connected to OMS / WMS. After obtaining the order information, the scheduling and promotion of all equipment are guided by the system without manual intervention.
2、 Charging automation
When the AGV robot is about to run out of power, it will send instructions to the system to request charging, and automatically switch to the charging position to "queue" for charging when allowed.
3、 Long distance transportation
Manual handling is usually only suitable for short-distance transportation, long-distance transportation generally needs to be completed by means of tools, with low efficiency, while AGV robot can realize the transportation between any point, which greatly improves the efficiency.
4、 Cost control
AGV robot can save a lot of manpower and material resources, reduce the production cost and recover the investment cost quickly. At the same time, it can also reduce the cost of staff turnover. Most importantly, in the distribution center, AGV robot can effectively reduce the error rate, and the effect is more significant.
5、 Low site requirements
Compared with the traditional handling equipment, AGV robot needs much narrower roadway width to transport goods, has low site requirements, and can change the path at will, with high flexibility.
6、 Higher security
On the one hand, in the case of manual handling of goods, it is easy to cause product damage or personal injury due to non-standard operation or negligence. The use of AGV robot handling can well avoid the occurrence of this problem. On the other hand, the guidance path of AGV robot is very clear, and it will automatically stop when encountering obstacles, which greatly improves the safety.
7、 Improve logistics management
AGV robot not only realizes automatic production, but also has intelligence. It can automatically identify the classification of goods and put them in a standardized way to ensure the orderly operation of logistics management.
With the landing of AGV robot in the field of logistics, many logistics companies have introduced AGV robot for industrial upgrading. It is believed that in the future, more enterprises will use AGV robot to complete simple and repetitive work instead of manual work.
