A method to visualize unevenness issues through floor inspection services conducted before AGV operation.
Proposal for a floor survey service that quantifies floor accuracy before the introduction of AGVs and AMRs, visualizes unevenness and defects, and leads to optimal renovation decisions.
In logistics warehouses considering the introduction of AGVs and AMRs, the condition of the floor directly affects the operational efficiency of the transport equipment. Therefore, it is essential to first understand whether the existing floor meets the required running accuracy. Even if the floor appears flat, there may actually be defects, steps, unevenness, or localized sinking that can compromise the running stability of automated transport robots. The floor survey service provided by Floor Agent uses a high-precision profiler to measure floor levels in 0.1mm increments, allowing for the visualization of unevenness and depressions through heat maps and numerical data. This approach offers a significant advantage by enabling a clearer assessment of the current situation, making it easier to organize the scope of necessary repairs, prioritize them, and allocate costs. The measured data is submitted as an unevenness report, which helps to clearly distinguish between areas that can be addressed with localized repairs and those that require comprehensive renovations, thereby improving the accuracy of capital investment planning. This ensures that the necessary decision-making materials are available before implementation and helps to prevent unnecessary renovations. Our company provides a consistent service from measurement to report submission and suggestions for optimal repairs. Therefore, if you are considering the introduction of automated transport vehicles such as AGVs or AMRs, whether for new installations or existing setups, please feel free to contact us.
