This paper defines clearly and presents the fundamental properties of automated guided vehicle systems (AGVS) and their relationship to Petri nets. The objective is to develop an intelligent modelling tool to allow the design of robust AGVS models using some invariant Petri-net properties. The Petri-net properties of the system are presented in terms of safeness, boundedness, strict conservatio...

vehicle system which is embedded in a multi-product, multi-line, multi-stage flexible manufacturing system. Three different guide path configurations have been developed for this study and the performance of the manufacturing system has been discussed from the perspective of these configurations. The system has been modeled through coloured Petri net method and some of the results are presented...

Due to poor predictability of resources and difficulty in perception task execution status, traditional Automatic Guide Vehicle (AGV) scheduling systems need a lot extra time the charging process. To solve this problem, digital twin-based dynamic AGV (DTDAS) method is proposed, including four functions, namely knowledge support system, model, optimization, simulation. With features virtual real...

Problem. As one of the three key elements flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), automated guided vehicles (AGVs) play a significant role in material handling systems. They've been around for more than decade, primarily Europe. AGVs were formerly utilized mostly production lines, but due to recent industrial development, they now vital variety different applications and domains, including wareho...
