Nanjing subway station revealed its automated guided vehicle (AGV) robotic parking garage, which significantly reduces the time and space needed to park a car. Drivers simply need to book a space using a mobile phone application, leave their vehicle at the entrance of the garage, where a lifter delivers the car underground and a robotic roller transports the car to the parking space. Parking time is between two to three minutes and the design uses up to 40 percent less space than the average lot. The recently completed system, which is currently in its final test phase, is expected to be put into operation following the Chinese New Year.
Digitalization at Audi - Qualification Program "Digital Shift i- in Production and Logistics"
The brand with the four rings is a leader in many digital technologies and processes. The digitization of production was accelerated last year and employees were made fit for digital progress. The leading plant for digital production and logistics in the Group is now being built in Neckarsulm.
A new definition of luxury meets the future of production at Mercedes-Benz: production of the EQS electric saloon started at Factory 56 in the Mercedes-Benz Sindelfingen plant - flexible, digital, efficient and sustainable. The EQS is integrated into ongoing series production at the site as the first all-electric model. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class saloon, the long-wheelbase version and the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class are already rolling off the production line at Factory 56.EQS production in Factory 56 exemplifies sustainable and CO2-neutral vehicle manufacturing at Mercedes-Benz. Numerous measures that enhance environmental protection and resource conservation characterise the factory: as just one example, photovoltaic systems on the roof of the hall cover yearly around 30 per cent of the electricity demand. Due to maximum flexibility, the assembly of different models and drive types on one line is possible. The processes and equipment in the production hall of Factory 56 can therefore be precisely adapted to the requirements of the EQS electric model.
They cover 240 kilometers a day and share the streets with pedestrians, lorries, bicycles and cars. They control the traffic lights, communicate with their surroundings... but when you see them you won’t see anyone driving them. These autonomous vehicles are called AGV (automated guided vehicles) and drive around outside the workshops of the SEAT plant in Martorell.Robots on wheels. People usually associate a robot with a humanoid machine that is able to perform a number of functions, but in reality a robot is any programmable machine capable of performing operations autonomously. This is the case with AGV: these autonomous vehicles were already operating inside the workshops and now they go out on the streets outside the factory. The latest technologies in SLAM navigation recognition (simultaneous localisation and mapping), 4G connection and induction electric battery charging are the brains of this unique project in Europe.
