AGV Manager | AGV_MANAGER

The main features are:

The tool allows communicating with the AGVs:

• via radio modem and serial connection
• via wireless LAN on TCP/IP or UDP protocols

PLC communications:

• with serial interface RS232
• with OPC server
• through ethernet with send/receive or fetch/write protocols
• generically by reading/writing a file

Database data exchange with:

• SQL server
• MySql
• PostgresSQL
• ODBC

Controlling multiple AGV concurrent movements:

• managing anti-collision and priorities algorithms between AGVs
• evaluating the best path to assign to an AGV considering the direction of the path and the AGV orientation, as defined in the plant map

Gives to the user a full integrated development environment (x-script) to define AGV’s movements with these advantages:

• great flexibility and adaptability to any plant requirements and customization
• no need for external compilation tools
• processing informations received through the native interfaces of AGV Manager or exchanging data by other means (sockets, etc.)
• the ability to integrate “plugins”, specific for a precise application, to increase the capabilities of AGV Manager for the needs of a specific plant
