AGV – Automated Guided Vehicles
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) and Autonomous Intelligent Vehicles (AIV)
Traditional AGVs follow a pre-determined route with the help of optical or magnetic reading of the track in the floor. AVI is the next generation of AGVs that scans its surroundings and calculates the best way to its destination. The scan gives information about objects and people that are in the way, but also takes redevelopments of the factory into regard which requires reprogramming if you have a traditional AGV.
Automatically controlled vehicles have become an important part of the material handling in many factories and storages. AGVs optimizes the production processes, increase the safety, reduces the costs and can in general be implemented in all current production processes with little modification.
