Project: AGV-based IIoT platform for intelligent Safety, Efficiency and pRedictive maintenance at factories

Acronym AGVISER (Reference Number: MNET17/ADMA-2292)
Duration 01/12/2017 - 30/11/2019
Project Topic Nowadays, factories are being upgraded to improve their maintenance and operation, as well as workers’ protection. The aim of the project is to research new, self-contained autonomous guide vehicles (AGVs) that can provide predictive maintenance, improve operation and workers’ protection services without the need to modify the factories. The AGV will integrate new sensors for tracking anomalies within the factory, while doing the original work for which it was designed. The AGV will include some internal rules and, based on the data received, it can activate an alarm, send a message to the maintenance manager, etc. Simultaneously, the AGV will collect and store new data and, once it reaches a point with Internet access, it will send the new data to the Cloud where new rules will be learned/generated on its basis. From the dashboard, additional rules can be generated, for example on the basis of workers’ knowledge, through a chat­based interface. As a result of the project, smarter, self-contained AGVs will be obtained, which will be able to act as the maintenance operator, guaranteeing normal operation and workers’ safety.
