Optimization of Material Handling Process using Automated Guided Vehicle

In this paper, we study the design and different methodology of automated guided vehicle (AGV) systems. This paper provides an overview on AGVS technology discusses recent technological developments and describes the formulation to control the traffic inside industrial work space. High demands on manufacturers have left their shipping warehouses in havoc. Human error has a negative effect on safety, efficiency, and quality. These expenses are reduced with the introduction of an Automated Guided Vehicle, AGV. A driverless, intelligent forklift uses an optical path to quickly and safely traverse a warehouse. Its capabilities are enhanced by the ability to send and receive tasks through RF data communication. The autonomous machines have the capability of dynamically storing pallets, lowering labor and insurance rates, and reducing the risk of personal injury. To broach these goals, the Automated Guided Vehicle, AGV, was designed to collaborate with another autonomous vehicle, the Automated Storage and Retrieval System, ASRS.
