What Is an AGV?

AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) is an autonomous mobile robot used for material handling inside factories, capable of transporting goods without human operation. Using technologies such as Lidar, RFID, and optical sensors, AGVs can follow predefined routes, avoid obstacles, and transport items quickly and accurately.

With AGV ANT, factories can reduce manpower, increase productivity, save operational costs, and ensure safety. From carrying small components to moving heavy pallets, AGV is a smart and flexible solution that helps factories operate more efficiently.

Outstanding Advantages of AGV

1. Automated and Accurate Movement

AGVs use Lidar, RFID, and intelligent sensors to follow designated routes tailored to customer requirements. This ensures goods are delivered to the correct position, minimizes errors on the production line, and maintains synchronization with machines, equipment, and workers.

2. Ensures Factory Safety

AGVs are equipped with obstacle detection sensors, audible alarms, and LED indicators. They can automatically stop to prevent collisions with people or equipment. AGVs comply with industrial safety standards, ensuring a safe working environment.

3. Saves Labor and Operating Costs

AGVs operate continuously for 8–10 hours per charge, reducing manual labor and optimizing internal transportation costs. With a swappable battery system, AGVs can run 24/7 without interruption—more efficient than human labor.

4. Flexible Integration with Production Lines

AGVs can connect directly to conveyors, robots, or smart warehouses, suitable for all production models—from small electronic assembly to transporting heavy pallets. Customers can customize AGVs to match factory requirements.

5. Operation Data Collection and Analysis

AGVs record detailed data such as speed, operating time, travel distance, and number of cycles. This helps factory managers analyze performance, detect bottlenecks, and optimize production processes.

6. User-Friendly Interface

A 7–12 inch LCD displays operational information clearly, allowing staff to easily monitor AGVs, issue commands, trigger door openings, or modify routes as needed.

7. Scheduled Maintenance and Complete After-Sales Service

AGVs are designed for fast maintenance with easily replaceable components. Anttek Vietnam provides professional technical support and 1-year warranty for all manufacturing defects, ensuring stable and long-term operation.

8. Efficient and Scalable for Any Factory

Whether your facility is small, narrow, or part of a large production line, AGVs can be customized in size, load capacity, speed, and function. They boost efficiency, reduce costs, minimize errors, and are easy to expand when production increases.
