Overview

Findings reveal autonomous mobile robots enhance transport efficiency, suggesting optimal deployment strategies are crucial.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the impact of autonomous mobile robots on material delivery efficiency in manufacturing.
  • Implemented a convolutional neural network-based dispatch framework
  • Tested in a controlled setting using a representative aerospace assembly task
  • Evaluated three approaches: manual walking, manual AMR dispatch, and autonomous AMR deployment across 60 runs.
  • Manual AMR dispatch increased total operation and non-value-added time
  • Autonomous deployment improved workflow but did not significantly outperform manual walking
  • Operator variability affected non-value-added time during automated dispatch.
