An AGVs has an average loaded travel distance per delivery =400ft. The average
empty travel distance is not known. Required number of deliveries per hour=
60.load and unload times are each 0.6 min and the AGVs speed = 125ft/min.
Anticipated traffic factor =0.80. Availability =0.95. Develop an equation that
relates the number of vehicles required to operate the system as a function of the
average empty travel distance Le.
Give AGVs layout shown in fig (1) .Vehicle travel counter clock wise around the
loop to deliver loads from the load station. Loading time at the load station =0.75
min, and unloading time at the unload station =0.50 min. It is desired to determine
how many vehicles are required to satisfy demand for this layout if a total of 40del/hr
must be completed by the AGVs. The following performance parameter are given:
vehicle velocity = 50m/min, Availability =0.95, traffic factor =0.95 and operator
efficiency does not apply , so E=1.0.Determine: (a) travel distance loaded and empty
, (b) ideal delivery cycle time and (c) number of vehicle required to satisfy the
delivery demand.
Problem6.
An AGVS has an average loaded travel distance per delivery = 400ft. The
average empty travel distance is not known. Required number of
deliveries per hr= 60. Load and unload times are each 0.6 min and the
AGV speed = 125ft/min. Anticipated traffic factor = 0.80.
Availability=0.95. Develop an equation that relates the number of vehicles
required to operate the system as a function of the average empty travel
distance Le.

Ans 2 Given data:
=200m
=150m ,
=
= 24 sec =.4min,
= 0.9 A= 0.95
Total number of delivery required
= 30del/hr
The number of vehicle required to satisfy delivery required
= WL/AT =
TC =
= (306.63)/ (6010.90.95) = 4
= 0.5+
Number of vehicle required
+ 0.5 +
= 2.03 min
=
=
=4
= 101del/hr
Hourly delivery /vehicle
= AT/TC = (60EA )/ TC
= (60 0.95 0.9)/2.03 =25.27 del/hr/veh
Ans 4 Given data:
Average loaded travel distance per delivery =400ft
Average empty travel distance per delivery
=?
Required number of delivery per hour
= 60 del/hr
= TL = 0.6 min,
= 0.8 A= 0.95, =?

=
=
(4.4 + Le/125) = 1.315 (4.4 + Le/125)
Le = 125 ( -5.8).
Ans 5 (a) Ignoring effect of slightly shorter distances around the curve at corners of the
and
are readily determined from the layout to be 110m and 80
loop, the value of
m, respectively.
(b) Ideal cycle time per delivery per vehicle is given by
TC =

= = 0.75+110/50+.50+80/50 =5.05 min.
(c) To determine the number of vehicles required to make 40del/hr, we
compute the
workload of the AGVs and the available time per hour per
vehicle.
WL = 40 (5.05) = 202 min/hr
AT = 60 (0.95) (0.90) (1.0) = 51.3 min/hr per vehicle
Therefore the number of vehicle required is
= 202/51.3 = 3.94 = 4 vehicles (value should be integer)

Ans 8
Ans 9 23.27 del/hr/vehicle
Ans 10
