Yufeng Intelligent has developed a new explosion-proof laser navigation stacking AGV for the pharmaceutical industry and successfully applied it in an AGV project of a large biotechnology company. Under the premise of meeting the need for heavy-loaded transportation of products in and out of narrow and closed boxes for cargo transfer, this project not only requires the development of an AGV with explosion-proof capabilities, but also requires all related equipment such as navigation facilities and communication facilities to meet the corresponding explosion-proof standards and provide a valid explosion-proof certificate. Yufeng Intelligent has carried out in-depth technical exchanges and cooperation with explosion-proof manufacturers based on its own characteristics. Through the reasonable optimization layout of the explosion-proof components in the vehicle, the size of the explosion-proof AGV has not changed much compared to the non-explosion-proof AGV, thereby ensuring the applicability of the explosion-proof AGV; and through reasonable selection, the cost of the entire AGV system has been controlled, and finally a satisfactory explosion-proof AGV equipment is provided to customers.

The textile industry is a labor-intensive enterprise. The labor intensity of printing and dyeing cloth transportation is high, and labor costs and inventory costs are high. It is imperative to accelerate the construction of automated, information-based and intelligent production systems. A textile manufacturing enterprise introduced Yufeng's intelligent mobile transportation solution. According to the overall layout of the project site, the Yufeng team planned the optimal driving route and deployed 2 laser SLAM navigation stacking AGVs, 3 laser navigation scissor-fork AGVs, 2 magnetic navigation backpack lifting AGVs, and 1 magnetic navigation backpack roller AGV. The AGV was used with the scheduling system (WCS, AGVS) and WMS to realize the automation of indoor and outdoor mixed intelligent transportation of materials, indoor storage and retrieval, warehousing of blanks, warehousing of finished products, and return of empty material frames. The logistics between the three workshops were completed with barrier-free automatic transportation, which greatly reduced the labor intensity of workers. Fabric warehouse entry: PDA scans the code to issue a piece entry task, WMS assigns the task, and the stacking AGV moves the fabric to the entry point. Fabric warehouse outbound: When outbound is required, WMS obtains the ERP outbound document information to generate an outbound task, and sends the outbound task to the scheduling system, which controls the stacking AGV to perform the outbound operation. Finished product storage: For finished products that meet the storage standards, the PDA scans the material box code and issues tasks. The finished product boxes are moved to the conveyor line by the top-lift AGV and roller AGV. The elevator sends the finished product boxes to Building No. 6, passes through the second floor of Warehouse No. 5, and arrives at Warehouse No. 4. The scissor-fork AGV in Warehouse No. 4 picks up the finished product boxes and moves them to the finished product storage location.  Finished product outbound: The scissor-fork AGV transports the goods to the No. 4 conveyor line, passes through the corridor conveyor line between Warehouses No. 3 and No. 4, and arrives at the No. 3 finished product outbound area.

"Prosperous development" is a deep impression left by the domestic mobile robot (AGV/AMR) industry in 2021. Especially under the influence of the epidemic and the continuous fluctuation of the external environment, the mobile robot industry has experienced a series of tests, such as rising raw material prices, chip shortages, and difficulty in project delivery. It is really gratifying that it still shows a prosperous scene. At present, in the field of intelligent manufacturing, a mobile robot has become the standard configuration of many factories and an indispensable key link. On the one hand, mobile robots can well meet the intelligent needs of production, transportation, storage, service, and other links in the transformation process of the traditional manufacturing industry; on the other hand, it is superimposed with the development of artificial intelligence (AI) and industrial Internet, creating many new scenes with high quality and commercial value. These in turn promote the vigorous development of the mobile robot industry. 2021 Mobile Robot (AGV/AMR) Market Review Market demand exploded, and sales exceeded 10 billion yuan. According to statistics from the New Strategic Mobile Robot Industry Research Institute, a total of 72,000 industrial application mobile robots (AGV/AMR) will be sold in the Chinese market in 2021, an increase of 75.61% over 2020; market sales have successfully exceeded the 10 billion yuan mark, reaching 12.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 64%. It is expected that in the next ten to twenty years, the domestic mobile robot industry will continue to grow rapidly and is expected to reach a market scale of 100 billion yuan. In 2021, although it continues to be affected by the epidemic, the domestic mobile robot market still maintains a high development speed. In various fields of mobile robot application, the demand of traditional industries such as automobile assembly, 3C electronics, third-party logistics, semiconductors, aerospace, port terminals and FMCG food continues to expand; thanks to the impact of carbon emission policies, there has been explosive growth in new energy batteries, photovoltaic and other fields. Mobile robots have become the standard solution for the production and expansion of these industries. A variety of new products that are deeply integrated with the production process have emerged in batches, which has improved the automation and intelligence level of production and played a key role in reducing staff and increasing efficiency for enterprises. It is worth noting that although the automotive industry is still the most widely used industry for mobile robots, the proportion of the automotive industry in the mobile robot application market has decreased due to the impact of the industry prosperity.  In contrast, supply chain, third-party logistics, and new retail have become the most important application areas for warehousing and sorting robots, with significant sales growth.

With the wide application of flexible manufacturing system, the demand of small batch and multi batch production is increasing. "Order oriented" production has become a trend. This also makes more and more enterprises realize that the introduction of intelligent equipment in production line is only the first step. In order to achieve the optimal solution of production efficiency, the re optimization of logistics system must be put on the agenda. In 2018, Anhui Yufeng Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Yufeng intelligent") was established to focus on the field of intelligent warehousing. Xiang Weifeng, its general manager, said: "at present, the development level of many domestic manufacturing enterprises is even more advanced than that of foreign countries, and they have a strong self driving force. They are more mature in production automation. However, logistics automation lacks integrity and systematicness, and does not connect production and warehousing, which seriously affects production efficiency. Therefore, Yufeng intelligent can provide customers with completely independent and customized overall logistics solutions from top-level design, system research, architecture building, function development, system optimization and testing to product release.

In order to meet the growing market demand, in the field of production and manufacturing, by deepening intelligent manufacturing and lean management, continuously expanding the production scale, introducing advanced equipment, realizing full-automatic production, intelligently providing customers with real localized manufacturing and one-stop full life cycle services. It can not only reduce costs for customers and meet market demand, but also provide strong guarantee in transportation cycle and delivery cycle. At the same time, the production base has introduced the most advanced production and manufacturing equipment in the industry, with a high degree of automation and global leading manufacturing technology, which can effectively save costs and provide standardized and customized products according to user needs.
