Build of an open source AGV

Logistics has become one of the most important aspects in industry. In modern production, factories are dealing with throughputs which were unthinkable barely half a century ago. Having the required parts delivered to workers on time to continue assembling a product is a key factor for a company to maintain a production rate which can keep up with the market demand. In big factories, there are plenty of facilities where such AGVs help the workers with this challenging task. Commercial AGV solutions are very costly, ranging from 200.000 SEK upwards of 1M SEK. The final aim of the overall project is studying the challenges associated to providing an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) to Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SME) for a reasonable price using Open Source Hardware (OSH).This is the continuation of a project where theoretical foundation and initial design was developed (Gámez and Martínez, 2021). Adapting it to the provided materials and budget was necessary, which was the reason to start designing it from scratch but maintaining the initial concept. The final outcome of this part of the project was the construction of the physical AGV unit, arrangement of electronics and basic programming for functional testing purposes have been included. / <p>Utbytesstudenter från Universidad de Málaga, Spanien och Universidad de Granada, Spanien.</p><p> </p><p>Till arbetet hör en artefakt dvs. en fysisk AVG robot som finns på ASSAR. </p>
