5G, artificial intelligence and industrial Internet, the three directions of the new infrastructure are closely related to the robotics industry, and 5G landing will promote intelligent service robots to become just demanded products. From a purely technical point of view, the technical characteristics of 5G are large bandwidth, high reliability, low latency, and massive IOT. 5G's technical characteristics greatly solve the problems that mobile robots now have latency on WIFI, sluggish voice conversations, and are always offline when used in venues, etc.
Communication between robots and collaborative facilities: In flexible production, mobile robots are the key performers. Unmanned factories require collaboration and collision-free operation between multiple mobile robots, so real-time data exchange between mobile robots is needed to meet that demand. Communication is also required between mobile robots and peripheral devices for real-time data exchange.
Logistics tracking: from warehouse management to logistics distribution requires wide coverage, deep coverage, low power consumption, large connectivity, and low cost connectivity technologies. Horizontal integration within or between enterprises also requires ubiquitous networks, and 5G networks are well suited to meet such needs.
Industrial automation control: Automation control is the most fundamental application in manufacturing plants, with a closed-loop control system at its core. Each sensor makes continuous measurements during the control cycle of this system, and the measurement data is instantly transmitted to the controller to set the actuator. If production is shut down during production due to excessive time delays or errors in control information during data transfer may result in significant financial losses.
Combined with a variety of scenarios, 5G combined with the traditional manufacturing enterprise intelligent transformation and upgrading of wireless network application needs, can meet the industrial environment of equipment interconnection and remote interaction application needs. It can connect all the widely distributed and fragmented people, machines and devices, build a unified interconnection network, and through the collection, storage and computational analysis of data, artificial intelligence feeds the manufacturing industry to realize intelligent production in factories.
5G+AGV - the preferred terminal for AI productization solutions and the core support product for industrial Internet
In recent years, mobile robot AGVs across the two fields of industry and service are undergoing a huge change. With strong policy guidance and the rapid development of mobile handling robots, intelligent transformation in vertical industries is becoming more and more feasible. With the addition of 5G technology, China's mobile robots AGV will get more breakthrough.
AGV as a smart factory task execution layer, is through the navigation device environment awareness, can be independent dynamic decision-making, planning in one of the mobile handling robot.
In industrial scenario applications, AGV information interaction mostly using private network, but the communication mode in cross-factory, long distance handling and other complex scenarios exist in the network transmission distance is short, the bandwidth is small, the communication limitations in terms of time delay. Data communication is poor, and AGVs need to build maps, plan paths, and equip tasks in each scene, which restricts the penetration of AGVs in the application layer, while 5G's low latency, high speed, and wide connectivity will be able to solve the pain points. More storage space to form knowledge sharing, stronger computing power, flexible allocation of task resources to meet synchronous positioning and mapping in complex environments, faster transport interactions, and hundreds of billions of devices with greatly expanded connectivity. The upgrade of intelligent device communication systems, from the B-side or factory side, involves devices with hundreds of billions of data, which can be interconnected by 5G to realize the interconnection of everything and real-time interoperability.
The extreme differentiated performance needs of diversified scenarios, AGV + 5G brings us diverse data control. Linking multiple application scenarios through 5G technology, data is accessed in real time. The processed data converge from the edge nodes to the central cloud, the cloud does big data analysis and mining, data sharing, while training and upgrading of algorithm models, and the upgraded algorithm is pushed to the cloud edge to make the edge devices updated and upgraded. The use of AGVs in each scene is analyzed through the cloud, and the working segments of all AGVs in each site are counted, such as AGV operation speed, operation mode, operation parameters, and fault diagnosis, simplifying the operation of AGVs in each factory floor and mentioning the ease of use and efficiency of AGVs.
5G prompts smart factory system tandem, and the isolated mode of each associated system of industrial production will be broken. Agiwei Robotics can provide AGV unmanned warehouse transportation solutions based on 5G technology, and its scheduling system AGVS can be seamlessly connected with ERP, MES and other production management systems; to optimize the integration of warehouse management and storage, third-party peripheral facilities (automatic doors, elevators), Agiwei launched WMS (warehouse management system), WCS (warehouse control system), to create a closed-loop industrial production and logistics information for customers. Management and control, intelligent factory data chain interoperability, to achieve AGV business without fault and without barriers.
Based on the development needs of 5G+industrial Internet, 5G+driverless, etc., mobile handling robots loaded with 5G technology are being developed vigorously. Recently, mobile handling robot AGV leader Suzhou Egivi Robotics Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation agreement with China United Network Communications Co., Ltd. Suzhou to build a joint 5G laboratory, and both sides will give full play to their respective advantages to promote a new round of innovative industries and convergence and innovation in the field of 5G+AGV services.
