Auto-Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are a game-changer for SMT (Surface Mount Technology) factories, where precise and efficient material handling is essential. With AGVs, SMT factories can automate the transportation of materials such as electronic components, PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards), and other production-related materials.
One significant benefit of using AGVs in SMT factories is increased efficiency. AGVs can navigate through the factory floor to pick up and deliver materials, reducing the amount of time required for manual transport by human workers. This not only speeds up the material movement process but also minimizes the risk of errors and delays associated with human error.
Another advantage of AGVs in SMT factories is improved safety. These machines have advanced sensors and cameras that allow them to detect obstacles, stop if necessary, and move safely around the factory floor. By automating the material handling process, AGVs reduce the need for human workers to operate heavy equipment or handle hazardous materials, minimizing the risk of workplace injuries.
In addition, AGVs can work around the clock without fatigue or downtime, increasing productivity and reducing labor costs in the long run. With their flexibility and adaptability, AGVs can be integrated into various production lines and customized to suit the specific needs of different SMT factories.
Overall, Auto-Guided Vehicles offer many benefits to SMT factories, including increased efficiency, improved safety, and reduced labor costs, making them a valuable investment for any SMT operation looking to optimize their production processes.

Advantage
High degree of automation: controlled by computer, electronic control equipment, magnetic induction SENSOR, laser reflector, etc. When a certain part of the workshop needs auxiliary materials, the staff will input relevant information to the computer terminal, the computer terminal will then send the information to the central control room, and professional technicians will issue instructions to the computer. With the cooperation of electronic control equipment, this The instruction is finally accepted and executed by the AGV – the auxiliary materials are sent to the corresponding location
Charging automation: when the power of the AGV car is about to run out, it will send a request command to the system to request charging (generally technicians will set a value in advance), and automatically “queue” at the charging place after the system allows it Charge. In addition, the battery life of the AGV car is very long (more than 2 years), and it can work for about 4 hours per 15 minutes of charging.
Beautiful: improve the viewing degree, thereby improving the image of the enterprise.
Safety: the driving path of a human-driven vehicle cannot be determined with certainty. However, the guidance path of the AGV is very clear, so the safety is greatly improved;
Cost control: the capital investment of the AGV system is short-term, while the wages of employees are long-term and will continue to increase with inflation;
Easy maintenance: infrared sensors and mechanical anti-collision can ensure that the AGV is free from collision and reduce the failure rate;
Predictability: AGV will automatically stop when it encounters obstacles on the driving path, while human-driven vehicles may have biased judgments due to human ideological factors;
Reduce product damage: can reduce damage to goods caused by irregular manual operations;
Improve logistics management: due to the inherent intelligent control of the AGV system, the goods can be placed more orderly and the workshop more tidy;
Smaller site requirements: AGVs require much narrower roadway widths than traditional forklifts. At the same time, for free-running AGVs, it can also accurately load and unload goods from conveyor belts and other mobile equipment;
Flexibility: AGV system allows maximum changes to path planning;
Scheduling capability: due to the reliability of the AGV system, the AGV system has a very optimized scheduling capability;
Process flow: AGV system should and must be part of the process flow, it is the link that connects many processes;
Long-distance transportation: AGV system can effectively carry out point-to-point transportation, especially suitable for long-distance transportation (greater than 60 meters);
Special working environment: the special system can work in an environment that is inconvenient for personnel to enter.
