With the advancement of mobile robot technology such as AGV in recent years and the demand for industrial upgrading and transformation, the application of AGV industrial robot systems has gradually become an ideal solution for enterprises to upgrade flexible production equipment and warehouse automation. However, based on the analysis of the characteristics of AGV robot distribution in the industry and the experience of the end users of enterprises we have been in contact with for many years, There are many drawbacks and misconceptions in the selection of AGV products and overall AGV system planning of enterprises.

Firstly, in the implementation of overall AGV application projects, 30% of enterprises lack overall consideration in AGV product selection. Can they perfectly integrate with existing equipment? AGV load weight and actual site adaptability? Environmental requirements, safety, and so on... ultimately became an image model project, representing only exemplary functions of enterprise technological progress rather than allowing AGV to fully utilize its resources.

Secondly, the application field of AGV in China is narrow, and AGV has not been fully utilized. For example, in our high profit monopolistic state-owned enterprises, the number of AGVs in tobacco enterprises accounts for a large proportion of the market's AGV usage rate. However, in industries such as petrochemical, food and medicine, heavy industry and military, railway and aviation, and general manufacturing that need to reduce manual labor intensity and improve employee labor intensity, the proportion of AGVs used is very small. This has actually led to the reduction of employment opportunities in high-benefit industries and the avoidance of social responsibility, Ordinary industries bear a large amount of manual labor burden, even allowing high-intensity work in toxic and harmful work environments.

Thirdly, most AGV manufacturers do not have design and integration capabilities at all. In recent years, everyone has seen the explosive growth of demand in various industries for logistics robots, which cannot conceal the current situation of insufficient overall planning and system design experience and weak integration analysis capabilities of client enterprises and AGV manufacturers. In this country, in the context of relationship oriented sales and homogenization and low quality environment, AGV manufacturers blindly engage in price wars, only considering AGV single machine performance, which leads to design errors, without AGV functional scalability and integrated application innovation. Coupled with internal corruption in some enterprises, the purchase of a large number of AGV products with low functionality and low quality wastes investment, making it impossible to truly achieve intelligent automation of AGV. This has led many business owners to doubt the role of AGV.

Guangzhou Zhilun Technology is committed to researching application solutions for AGV, based on the efficiency, simplicity, standardization, modularization, and humanization of the overall logistics process, with the goal of maximizing customer benefits through effective solutions. Here, several suggestions are proposed for the rational design and planning of the AGV system:

1、 Consider the equipment system architecture based on your process requirements and the performance characteristics of AGV. Guangzhou Zhilun Technology AGV has functions such as one-way forward, bidirectional driving, turning around, left and right lateral movement, in-place rotation, and can carry, lurk, drag, and pull quickly. It is suitable for multi-point logistics transportation and cross regional design, and automatically avoids obstacles and optimizes routes. For example:

1) A simple point to point (within 5 stations or with low frequency of handling tasks) handling in a 200 meter workshop requires only one bidirectional AGV robot to operate in single machine mode, which saves space, reduces turning mileage, and does not cause congestion;

2) When your product is heavy (greater than 200KG) and has a large volume or needs to be transported to the transfer area, you should use AGV trailer cage trucks for transportation, which not only improves the handling volume and safety, but also facilitates the transfer of the next process.

3) For 24-hour busy circular logistics transportation with relatively uniform production, it is recommended to use backpack AGVs for high-speed driving as much as possible.

2、 Build your overall efficient logistics system based on the cost-effectiveness of AGV. In industries such as automobiles, hardware, printing, and paper making, moving objects are mostly of the super large and overweight type, with a busy logistics volume and a certain distance between material storage and processing areas. Large tonnage, medium and low speed AGV products should be used when they do not affect workers' activities and other equipment operation routes, and can easily and safely transport materials. The use of heavy-duty AGV products customized by Guangzhou Zhilun Technology will become a cost-effective solution. So in industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, tobacco, and electronic manufacturing, small tonnage high-speed AGV products should be used to organically combine a large number of dispersed material box manufacturing equipment, and the flexibility corresponding to equipment layout changes is also an area where Guangzhou Zhilun Technology AGV robots can leverage their advantages; AGV is the most suitable handling method in industries with special needs such as LCD production and electronic cleaning environments, as well as hazardous working environments

In summary, the application of AGV robots in China is currently limited to a few economically strong industries, and there are still many innovative applications to be explored in optimizing the existing equipment resources and AGV applications of enterprises. We believe that in the future, as more and more industry enterprises reach a certain level of industrial scale and material flow integration, the application scope and form of AGV will have a leapfrog development. More AGV application configuration solutions need to be combined with the needs of the enterprise itself. Guangzhou Zhilun Technology is willing to cooperate strategically with more innovative modern enterprises, so that robots can truly benefit enterprises and humanity!
