1.1 Structure
1.1.1 Introduction
Overview
The IRB-M100 is an automated guided vehicle designed for the transportation of
goods in the bodyshop, and the cornerstone of ABB's Rack-free manufacturing
concept.
The design and performances of our IRB-M100 are enabler for production lines
with optimum throughput and maximum flexibility, while keeping the cost down.

1.1.2 AGV Ecosystem
xx2100000177
ABB Ability
ABB Ability solutions combine ABB’s deep domain expertise with connectivity and
software innovation to empower real-time, data-driven decisions for safer, smarter
operations of the AGV fleet that maximize resource efficiency and contribute to a
low-carbon future.
Fleet Management System (FMS)
The FMS manages in real time the fleet of AGVs. It regulates the traffic and assigns
the tasks to the AGVs according to a set of parameters (priority of the mission,
availability of the AGV, proximity to the task…). In addition the FMS offers standard
interfaces to other managements systems of the factory (Manufacturing Operations
Management (MOM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Warehouse Management
System (WMS), …).

1.1.2 AGV Ecosystem

Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)
MES are computer-based systems used in manufacturing to track and document
the transformation of raw materials to finished products.
Network Management System (NMS)
The NMS can detect, diagnose and resolve network performance issues to maintain
an optimum Quality of Service (QoS).
Payload
The most common applications for AGVs are the transportation of goods between
warehouse, process station, packing, … The payload can vary depending whether
it is transported on top of the AGV (carrying applications) or placed on a trolley
pulled by the AGV (towing/tugging applications).
Battery Charging Station
AGVs are powered by embedded batteries that requires charging to maintain an
optimal availability. The charging station can be derivations along the main route,
where the AGV is ordered to navigate by the FMS for recharging, or they can be
directly implemented along the main route for opportunity charging during stop
times.
Navigation infrastructure
In most cases the factory floor must be equipped with navigation artifacts to guide
the AGVs along the programmed path. Most commonly used methods are QR tags,
magnetic tape and RFID markers. Other methods (Simultaneous Localization And
Mapping) are using the scanner information to map the area for guidance, and
therefore do not require specific navigation artifacts.
