What is the difference between the two handling robots, RGV trolley and AGV trolley?

With the trend of globalization of factories in the future of artificial intelligence industry 5.0, the rapid industrial reform, and the rapid development of more and more manufacturing enterprises, intelligent warehousing and logistics have become an indispensable part of manufacturing enterprises. In the market of Industry 5.0 unmanned handling robots, in addition to the AGV forklifts we often say, RGV trolleys also play their role in the automated warehousing and logistics system. Everyone wants to know the difference between RGV trolley and AGV trolley.


RGV car introduction


RGV is the English abbreviation of Rail Guided Vehicle, also known as rail shuttle trolley. RGV trolleys can be used in warehouses with various high-density storage methods. The trolley channel can be designed to be arbitrarily long, which can increase the storage capacity of the entire warehouse. And there is no need for a forklift to drive into the roadway during operation, making it safer;




AGV car introduction


(Automated Guided Vehicle, AGV for short), also commonly known as AGV car. It refers to a transport vehicle equipped with automatic navigation devices such as electromagnetic or optical, which can travel along the prescribed navigation path, and has safety protection and various transfer functions. Industrial applications do not require a driver's truck, and use rechargeable batteries as its power source. Generally, its travel path and behavior can be controlled by a computer, or an electromagnetic track (electromagneTIc path-following system) can be used to set up its travel path. The electromagnetic track is pasted on the floor, and the unmanned truck relies on the information brought by the electromagnetic track. Make moves and actions.




RGV Applicable Scenarios


RGV is rail-driven, and it is suitable for relatively simple scenarios. RGV has a wide range of applications in intelligent warehousing and logistics and workshop production lines, such as trolley loading and unloading platforms, elevators and conveyors. Materials are handled according to instructions, which not only improves transportation efficiency. , the transportation cost is also reduced a lot.


AGV applicable scenarios


AGV is an automatic navigation trackless driving. AGV trolleys are widely used in intelligent three-dimensional storage systems and flexible production lines. Therefore, many manufacturing enterprises and logistics industries have become a very good choice in order to improve production efficiency and reduce production costs.


Structurally, the RGV trolley is mainly composed of frame, driving wheel, follower wheel, front and rear bumpers, chain conveyor, communication system, electrical system and various cover plates. Due to the simple structure of the RGV trolley, the strong anti-interference ability to the external environment, the wider requirements for the operator, the strong operation stability, the relatively few failures, the relatively low overall maintenance cost and the high reliability. It is also because the RGV trolley can only walk on the track, it is relatively difficult to transform the RGV trolley once the route is determined, so the adaptability to the use site and its own scalability are relatively general.
