AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), i.e. Automated Guided Vehicle, is a bright pearl in the field of modern logistics and production automation. As a highly intelligent transportation tool, AGV is fully managed by advanced computer system and integrated with electromagnetic, laser, vision and other automatic guiding technologies, which is capable of traveling accurately along the preset guiding paths without the need of laying professional tracks. It not only has a complete safety protection mechanism, but also equipped with a variety of transfer functions, can autonomously and efficiently perform all kinds of complex handling operations, especially suitable for those intricate transportation routes, the flexibility of the high requirements of the industrial production environment.

In terms of product types, AGVs show a high degree of diversity and adaptability. According to the different working methods, AGV can be roughly divided into handling type, assembly type, traction type, forklift type and composite type and other categories. Handling-type AGV is good at quickly transferring goods between warehouses and production lines; assembly-type AGV focuses on accurately docking the various assembly links on the production line; tractor-type AGV is able to pull a trailer or trailer, realizing long-distance, high-volume material transportation; forklift-type AGV integrates the functions of a forklift, which is able to easily cope with loading, unloading and transporting heavy goods; and composite AGV combines the above functions and has higher flexibility and comprehensiveness. It has higher flexibility and comprehensive performance.
