摘要：

Automated Guided Vehicle is a mobile robot used in various industries to transfer goods and materials from one place to another in the industrial compound such as production line and warehouses. Due to the payload it carries, the design should be able to handle certain level of mechanical stress. The optimization study is important to assure the material and design are safe and optimum under the specified conditions before the AGV is manufactured. In this study, a conventional AGV designed previously by an AGV manufacturer to bring a payload of 70 kg is analyzed using the Finite Element Method (FEM) and SolidWorks software is used to perform the FEA simulation. This paper also explain on how the factor of safety for the AGV is derived. The parameter change in this study was the thickness of the sheet metal used to build the AGV while the study output is the stress level, factor of safety and weight of the AGV.
