Logistics Automation

Industry 4.0 is a technical revolution to transform the whole manufacturing facilities into more automated and smarter operating systems through excellent internet connectivity. Thanks to IoT technology (IoT), it allows devices, objects or processes to be interacted and associate with each other to improve the results obtained, and also Artificial intelligence (AI) enables machines to process and learn from the information they receive and be able to act or response autonomously.

AGV / AMR play a major role in the whole smart manufacturing process. They represent the forefront technology in warehouse automation, from raw material loading and unloading and delivering throughout the areas of warehouse and assembly lines, making the production processes more productive and efficient with less human contact, also avoid any accidents during the processes. The demand of automated robotics in manufacturing filed in order to cope with manpower shortage at site.

Automated transport vehicles to perform material picking and handling tasks, high efficiency and safety are important. Therefore, the casters application for AGV/AMR plays an important role. HICKWALL has rich customer experiences in this field. We can provide customers with the most professional wheel selection according to the on-site using environment and robot conditions, improve the safety issue and ensure the smoothness in the automated warehouse.

AGV/AMR plays an important role in the entire smart manufacturing process, from loading and unloading of raw materials, transporting materials between warehouses and production lines to handling of finished products or fixtures. Assisting factories with fast and instant logistics services, and cooperating with small-batch delivery, the production process is more efficient, and can reduce human contact while avoiding any accidents in the process. In response to the dilemma of manpower shortage. The most commonly seen automated robots in recent years include: Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) and Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR). Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) require fixed tracks to be arranged in the environment for route navigation; whereas Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) can detect their own location and route and have built-in navigation maps. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Logistics automation to industrial world, automated storage/retrieval system (AS/RS) has become a key technology to improve efficiency and accuracy. AS/RS systems can simplify the time of incoming and storage operations and process items quickly and accurately. The system consists of high-rise shelves, stackers, various types of forklifts, warehousing systems, automated guided vehicles, control systems and peripheral equipment. It is a fully automated warehousing solution.

The automated warehousing solution integrates storage, transportation and sorting functions to realize automated replenishment delivery and picking operations. Inventory management and item access are fully managed by the Warehouse Management System (WMS). This integrated information management method makes the operation of logistics centers and production bases smoother and greatly improves operational efficiency.

The AS/RS system not only improves the automation level of warehousing and logistics, but also optimizes the operating process and reduces manpower requirements. This intelligent solution is suitable for enterprises of all sizes and needs, thereby improving overall warehousing efficiency and achieving efficient smart logistics management.
