AGV driven by Siemens – standardized software combined with artificial intelligence

Increasing production complexity and growing cost pressure require efficient and dynamic material flows. Industrial manufacturing and intralogistics are lead by the trend of flexible transport concepts with automated guided vehicles (AGV). The standardized SIMOVE software for vehicle automation, navigation and fleet management enables machine builders to automate AGV applications based on Siemens products and technologies. Siemens’ comprehensive hardware portfolio (PLC, IPC, I/O, drives, RFID, safety, communication and localization components) and the holistic but modular software approach allow AGV applications of all scales. Combining AGVs with SIMATIC Industrial Edge based artificial intelligence (AI) enhance the capabilities of the whole system, demonstrated by recognizing a transport order request from the worker in this video.
