Material handling i~ a specialised activity for a modern manufacturing concern. Automated guided"vehicles (AGVs) are invariably used for material handling in flexible manufacturing~ystems (FMSs) due to their flexibility. The quantitative analysis of an AGV &ysterri is useful for determining the material flow rates, operation times, length of delivery , length of empty move of AG~ and the numbe~ of AGVs ~quired for a typical FMS cell layout. The efficiency of the material handling &ystem, such\ as AGV can be improved by reducing the length of empty move. The length lof empty move of AGV depends upon despatching and scheduling methods. If these methods of AGV~ are not properly planned, the length of empty move of AGV is greater than the length of delivery .Thi~ results in increase in material handling time which in turn increases the number of AGVs required in FMS cell. This p~per presents a method for optimising the length of empty travel of AGV in a typidal FM,S, cell layout. I I contains many manufacturing cells. Each cell normally contains one to four production machines and a transfer system, like automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and conveyors for the workpieces and, for the tools.
Safe Journey is the important thing while travelling in vehicle. This paper explains about alerting the driver and make the vehicle to stop to prevent accident, if driver consumes alcohol and exceed the speed limit even the vehicle is ahead. The vehicle speed can also be controlled when it enters the over speed zones. Even though the accident occurs after taking the precautions the by using GPS and GSM accident location is send to family members and concerned authorities immediately to rescue them
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
