Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The embodiment of the invention discloses an AGV dispatching method for flexible manufacturing, which comprises the following specific steps:
the stations of the process are communicated by the AGV, and the moving or stopping of the AGV at each station is controlled by adopting a software scheduling mode.
And the retention time of the AGV at each station is dynamically adjusted according to the off-line time of the finished vehicle, so that the retention time is ensured to be in accordance with the production time of the current vehicle type.
According to different requirements of each workshop section, different scheduling methods are designed: in the road working section, whether to advance is determined according to the number of the adjacent AGVs so as to ensure that due roads exist and normal traffic is ensured. In the robot working section, the communication with the robot is carried out through a TCP/IP protocol, and the joint scheduling is carried out through the signal of the robot and the AGV, so that the production consistency and safety are ensured. In the manual working section, the AGV advances in dynamic retention time, and gives a certain starting and stopping authority to workers, so that the flexibility of production is ensured. And in the section connecting part, certain optimization is performed according to the characteristics of two adjacent sections, so that the whole system can run more smoothly.
The manual section scheduling algorithm is shown in fig. 2. When the AGV reaches the dispatching distance, the system judges according to the state of the AGV and the like, and moves on the premise of ensuring safety.
The robotic station only allows one AGV to be present at a time, and the system will select different modes of operation depending on the specific location of the AGV. The robot station scheduling algorithm is shown in fig. 1.
The road section is a section of crossroad, and meanwhile, the AGV and the normal vehicles pass through the crossroad, so that the vehicles are controlled to pass through the traffic lights in order to prevent road congestion. Because the AGV is slow in travelling speed when normally operating, the AGV passing time is shortened by adopting speed regulation, and the normal vehicle passing is ensured by ensuring that the AGV is not on the road when a green light is ensured by combining a time window method. The road section scheduling algorithm is shown in fig. 3.
The flexible characteristic of the AGV is benefited, the length and the position of the production line can be adjusted under a reasonable scheduling method, and the production rhythm is not set with a fixed value but dynamically regulated and controlled according to the offline speed of finished products.
