  5. 14. Evaluating Usage of Automated Guided Vehicles with Respect to Warehouse Layout Changes: A Case Study at Haldex Brake Products

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk logistik

    Author : Zineb Jabrane; Ebba Borgemo; [2018]
    Keywords : Warehouse operations; warehouse design; warehousing; material flow; automated material handling; and automated guided vehicle AGV ; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Warehouse operations are considered a key aspect to the success of a supply chain. They are not only costly to the supply chain but they also affect the flow of material both upstream and downstream. Warehouse improvement measures play therefore a considerable role in decreasing cost and lead time by improving material flows. READ MORE

  6. 15. Using a knowledge base to solve the Multi-Agent Pathfinding problem in a warehouse environment

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Cristian Osorio Bretti; Anton Stagge; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : E-commerce services is becoming more and more popular, and thus more pressure is being put on the warehouses which handles the orders. One prominent way to increase said warehouses efficiencies is to apply the Amazon Robotics approach of having hundreds of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) deliver the storage shelfs to the workers, instead of having the workers walk around.
