4. AGVs Solutions

AGV is an automatically controlled self-propelled vehicle used to transport goods in factories and warehouses.

AMRs are self-propelled robots like autonomous mobile robots. Thanks to advanced technology, AMRs can move independently through your manufacturing facilities and avoid obstacles. They use sensors and cameras to navigate safely.

AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) and AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) are both automation devices in logistics and manufacturing, but they differ in technology and how they work:

AGV: Moves along predetermined routes such as magnetic strips, wires or sensors. Requires controlled and pre-planned environments.

AMR: Uses sensors, cameras, and AI technology to navigate autonomously in the environment. More flexible, can adapt to changes in the environment without pre-planning.

AGVs are suitable for repetitive tasks in fixed environments, while AMRs are more flexible for changing tasks in complex environments.

AGV systems offer many benefits over other legacy material handling systems. These benefits include:

Quick deployment and setup

Significantly lower operating costs compared to manual options

Increase productivity and efficiency

Reduce the use of manual labor

Significantly reduces damage to products

Safety, reduce work accidents

Enhance product traceability

Use space more efficiently

Improve accuracy in delivery and shipping

Depending on the size of the project, on average about 1 working week

Yes. AGV can be integrated with the customer’s existing WMS module if the customer provides the system’s API.

You need to know two basic parameters: travel distance and travel frequency of a production shift. Contact us for more detailed advice.

Depending on the type of AGV: If it is an AGV using a magnetic line, it will be about 0.8 m/s. If it is a Slam guided AGV, it will be about 1.5 m/s.

After about 6 months of operation, the AGV will need general maintenance.

Depending on the type of Lithium or Lead battery technology and frequency of use, the battery life will also change. On average, about 24 months.
