RFID for AGV System in Industrial Automation
There are many different technical approaches to AGV navigation systems, but RFID is an effective and highly accurate solution for precise location navigation and rapid response requirements.
HUAYUAN has done several large port projects in port container transfers, shipments, stacking and fast location finding applications, generally using embedded FDX RFID tags with large low-frequency readers and and dual antenna energy supply. Since the tag is laid underground outdoors, structure of the RFID tag's housing needs to withstand various outdoor conditions. This includes for example long-term waterproof capabilities, high temperatures and low temperatures, icy conditions, battery interferences, and etc. Therefore, the cost is relatively high.

With the energy shortage and price increases, rising labor costs and other adverse factors, traditional industries are having more and more urgent requirements for the innovation of industrial automation. RFID in many new automation application technologies, involve low costs, is maintenance-free, has high efficiency, low energy consumption, high security, and is very easy to integrate with a variety of automated industrial control systems for technological updates.
For the traditional industry, the inevitable reliance on a large amount of labor, robots and automation equipment continue to expand the range of applications. If a factory is larger than 40,000 square meters with hundreds of robots moving at the same time in the shuttle to complete their respective work instructions, accurate positioning control of the motion trajectory is important to guarantee the operation of the entire system. Although there are a variety of technologies to ensure the motion trajectory technology, RFID has irreplaceable advantages in many scenarios like precise and rapid location. Furthermore, RFID work modules can be very space-saving, the data response speed gives feedback to the motion control module within tens of seconds, and the motion robot can ensure motion accuracy of up to a few centimeters. The control center controls hundreds of robot motion states through a fast wireless network, especially when paths cross, to avoid mutual collision and collision with industrial equipment, and to achieve the best robot motion pathing.
HUAYUAN RFID Modules and AGV Tags Solutions
HUAYUAN's robot AGV RFID navigation control system complies with RFID high frequency. Each tag has a unique code, a digital signature authentication and AES encryption protection. The tags are embedded at the precise nodes corresponding to the entire map range. The performance of the RFID tags is perfectly matched to HUAYUAN's fast-reading modules to achieve the best RFID performance.
Through HUAYUAN's 20 years of experience in RFID technology research and development work and performance stability, the AGV read-write module, has high electromagnetic performance with anti-interference and anti-static shock capabilities. It can move on the ground and sense RFID tags. A minimum of 35 milliseconds is required from the robot controller to send RFID tag information which has an encrypted data protection protocol for data communication, according to customer requirements. Additionally, the RFID read-write module can be customized to meet the data communication protocols of various AGV controllers through RS232, RS485, BLT4.0-50, WIFI communication interfaces, read-write RFID modules and also meets the environmental requirements of the work site's package protection.
