Recently, a batch of large metal weldments of AGV chassis and undercarriages was successfully delivered.
Nowadays, manufacturers seek to implement methods of automation appropriate to their needs and purposes. Companies automate their activities for a variety of reasons. Increasing productivity is normally the main aim for companies desiring competitive advantages. Automation reduces human errors and improves the quality of output. Other reasons for automation include the presence of hazardous working environments and the high cost of human labor in such areas. The decision regarding automation is often associated with some economic and social considerations.
Robotics has become a very common application in most of developed countries. High performance, high accuracy, lower labor cost and the ability to work in hazardous places have put robotics in an advantageous position over many other such technologies.An automated guided vehicle (AGV) is a mobile robot that transfer load on pre-define path to a load station without any operator, all by itself. They are used in carrying a heavy load, material handling systems, flexible manufacturing systems, and container handling applications. As the advancement in technology, the world step into a new era of machinery, which carefully handles heavy load and reduce time. The aim of production planning has shifted from fast production tothe efficient transportation of material between the workstations and in and out of storage. The use of AGVs increases flexibility since the flow path can easily be reconfigured to accommodate production changes. The smooth motion of AGV through curved and difficult path save time to unload station, and installation costs thus increasing productivity.
Automated guided vehicles (AGV) have been increasingly employed by the industry in the past decades. Especially in modern factories, a few workers in a well-designed mechanical production line are capable to accomplish the job that used to require hundreds of skilled workers to do. Especially, machines brought us not just efficiency, but also accuracy and reliability. Therefore, automatizing production or, rather, replacing human workers with robots is imperative for every production plant. The technology is based on vehicles utilized as material handling equipment that operate autonomously in a manufacturing plant, without the need for a human operator. AGVs are widely used in large-scale production facilities, especially in the automotive market, to increase efficiency and reduce internal transportation costs. The technology meets the current trend within the international industry towards an increasing level of automation of manufacturing plants. The concept of Industry has been also consolidating the idea of a fourth industrial revolution based on perpetual communication via Internet that allows for continuous interaction and exchange of information not only between humans (C2C) and humans and machines (C2M) but also between machines themselves (M2M)".
Autonomy is the key factor for using AGV in different fields. It will achieve a high degree of accuracy and accuracy which will result in a complete reduction of system errors and improvement time. Flexibility is the key factor that will help AGV become popular in other material handling systems. The AGVs are used inside the factories, but they also expand their spaces in other service sectors
An Automated guided vehicle (AGV) is defined as a set of a cooperative driverless vehicles, which is used on the manufacturing floor and coordinated manually. Their main usage of them is to facilitate the automation process of manufacturing subjects.
