In contrast to an autonomous mobile robot (AMR), an automated guided vehicle (AGV) is a portable robot that uses radio waves, vision cameras, magnets, or lasers for navigation or follows marked long lines or wires on the floor. Heavy materials are typically moved around a large industrial building, like a factory or warehouse, using these trucks.
At the end of the 20th century, the automatic guided vehicle saw more use. The AGV can autonomously attach trailers to which they can tow objects behind them. The trailers can be used to move finished goods or raw materials.
Additionally, the AGV can store things on a bed. Reversing a set of motorised rollers known as a conveyor can be used to push the objects off. AGVs are utilised in virtually every industry, including mash, paper, metals, paper, and general assembling. In hospitals, materials like medicine, linen, and food are also transported.
A laser-guided vehicle (LGV) is another name for an aerial vehicle. In Germany the innovation is likewise called Fahrerloses Transportsystem (FTS) and in Sweden förarlösa truckar. Cheaper forms of AGVs are many times called Mechanised Directed Trucks (AGCs) and are typically directed by attractive tape.
Mobile robots that do not rely on additional infrastructure in the environment, such as magnetic strips or visual markers, for navigation are sometimes referred to as AMR[1]. AGVs are then given to the latter.
The China Automated Guided Vehicle Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
The heavy-load, stacking AGV developed by Hangcha Group Co., Ltd. (the “Hangcha Group”) successfully entered service in the ceramic industry, adding a new product to its AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) line.
This model fills the void left by the absence of heavy-load stacking AGVs weighing more than three tons in China at the moment, where all stacking AGVs weigh less than two tons. The following features are present in the item:
Heavy burden: When the load center distance is 950mm, the load capacity is 3t, and when the load center distance is 600mm, it can hold up to 5t. It is currently China’s stacking AGV with the largest load capacity. It is advantageous due to its solid construction, chassis rigidity, small volume, and adaptability.
Accurate positioning: The AGV’s positioning accuracy is less than 5 millimeters, and it can stack and remove empty pallets automatically, which significantly reduces stacking space and increases space utilization.
Effective integration: Real unmanned factory operation can be achieved through its integration with ERP, WMS, automatic dispatching system, conveyor line, and WCS, among other hardware and software.
The AGV has trackless running, wireless communication, automatic navigation, self-charging, self-avoiding obstacles, and self-diagnosis of faults, in addition to the advantages of high accuracy and heavy load that come with laser navigation.
The goal of Hangcha Group is to become a global leader in intelligent logistics total solution providers., it has led independent research and development of AGV equipment, successfully introduced the world’s most advanced and dependable NDC technology in 2016, and established the “Hangcha Intelligent Logistics” software team.
The company has completed its strategic plan in the intelligent logistics sector, where it holds a leading position in China and ranks among the world’s best in many areas, including hardware manufacturing, automatic control, and system integration.
Hangcha Group’s intelligent logistics system is now widely regarded by the market and has assisted numerous customers in making the switch to intelligent manufacturing.
The Group has deep working relationships with a lot of businesses, like BMW China, GM, Anji Logistics, Jingdong Logistics, and Fengshen Logistics. Its products are used a lot in the automotive, logistics, rubber, and photovoltaics industries.
