4. How to install and use the Meganetic Navigation Strips?
4.1 Introduction about Meganetic Navigation Strip
The AGV can automatically run back and forth on the ground because magnetic strips are attached on the floor
to guide the vehicle. The AGV automatically calibrates the running direction of the vehicle by reading the signal of
the magnetic stripe, and the algorithm of the software.Finally, the AGV trolley runs stably on the magnetic strip.

4.2. How to install the magetic navigation strip?
4.2.1 Firstly please confirm which route the AGV should drive? And then clean the position(with a dry
rag)where will attached with strips. Please make sure there is no oil/grease in the ground.
4.2.2 Tear off the backing paper of the magnetic strip. The back side of the S pole is on the ground, and the
smooth side of the N pole is upward.
4.2.3 How to attach strips into a straight-line: Two people. Stick it at one end first.One person is straightening
the magnetic strip vigorously, while the other is tearing the back paper off. Please make it as straight as possible.
4.2.4 How to make Circular navigation line: Firstly you can use a pen to draw a circular arc on the ground (the
radius cannot be less than 0.8 meters, the larger the space, the larger the arc), and then tear off the back glue of the
magnetic strip, follow the drawing A good arc is attached and the adhesive paper is torn off at the same time.
Radius>=0.8m

5. How to install and use the AGV?
5.1 Firstly let us know the AGV direction.
5.2 How to make AGV drive in a signal line?
Put the RFID site card on the installation navigation magnetic strip, and place the site card in sequence.
The distance between the site and the previous site is not less than 1 meter.

5.3 How to make AGV drive in a circle loop?
Paste the magnetic strip into a closed-loop circuit, the AGV runs in the closed circuit. Put the RFID station card
on the installation navigation magnetic strip. The site cards need to be placed in order from low value to high
value. The distance between the neighboring stations is not less than 1 meter.

stops you
need…
If you want the vehicle speed to be more than 80% or faster, it
tends to drive out of the navigation strips when turning. Thus,a
speed reducing card should be attached to the strip 0.5m in front
of the turning(see drawing above). And the other speed reducing
card should be attached to the strip after turning(also 0.5m).

In the circle route, the AGV automatically calculates about what is the nearest station, and automatically judges
that it is going forward go or go back.
eg: The current station of the AGV is at station 4#, and if your target station is at station 2#, it will go backwards.
The current station of the AGV is at station 6#, and if your target station is 1#, it will move forward.

5.4 How to make AGV drive in a branch-route type 1?
Interface Introduction:
The functions shown in the parameters set in the above figure are:
The starting point of the main line is station No. 1, and the maximum number of stations for the first branch
line of the main line turning left is 3, indicating that the stations turning left are station numbers 2-3. Every two
branches of the main line turn right and the maximum number of stations is 5, indicating that the stations that turn
right are stations No. 4-5, and so on. The setting method of other station numbers is the same. run.
