With rapid economic development, most companies are adopting intelligent material handling methods, primarily using automated guided vehicle (AGV) mobile forklifts. These are primarily used in factory workshops, warehouses, cargo yards, and port logistics centers. Today, Suzhou Xunji will explain some key points to keep in mind when inspecting and maintaining AGVs during daily use.

1) Inspection Time: All machinery requires a series of inspections after extended use, and AGVs are no exception. After extended use, AGVs will experience some degree of fatigue and wear. Therefore, operators must conduct rigorous inspections before and after use to ensure the AGVs are free of wear and malfunction and can function properly the next time they are used.

 

2) Inspection Personnel: AGV inspections are generally technical and are recommended to be performed by professionals, such as maintenance personnel. AGV operators should also make daily inspections a regular practice and a habit to prevent accidents and ensure operator safety.

 

Finally, Xunji Zhixing has compiled the following tips regarding daily maintenance of AGV mobile forklifts:

① Avoid exposure to rain or contact with corrosive objects.

② Do not modify program parameters during normal AGV operation.

③ Regularly check wireless communications to ensure normal communication.

④ Regularly check the operation panel to ensure buttons on the panel function properly.

⑤ Regularly maintain safety devices such as emergency stop switches and warning lights.

⑥ Regularly check the AGV mobile robot's sensors for proper operation at least weekly.

⑦ Regularly clean and maintain the drive transmission, lifting hook, and other structures at least once or twice a month.

⑧ Always turn off the power if not in use for an extended period.

 

The above are some tips for daily maintenance of AGV mobile forklifts from Xunji Zhixing. We encourage you to pay attention to these tips during use to ensure the proper operation of the AGV forklift robot and safe manual operation. For other questions about AGV forklifts, please contact us.
