…equipped with an on-board programmable logic controller (PLC) from Siemens or Schneider Electric, which ensures their efficient and safe navigation. Effective AGV navigation relies on good communication between the AGVs and the factory’s control system. This communication enables the factory to track each AGVs' location, load, and real-time status. Mercedes-Benz’s previous AGV system used Bluetooth technology along with HMS’ Anybus Wireless Bolt and Bridge products. However, they wanted to improve the system’s efficiency and prepare to comply with the EU Machinery Regulation. “While Bluetooth worked well, we now want to enhance our AGV system to support higher throughput, fast roaming,…
