| Abstract | As advancement in automation and control enter a new era in technological development, the need to keep up with these advancements is paramount. Automating process that take a lot of labor and lead time could make a lot of difference in those annual documents that evaluates the company’s performances. SIAM Kubota has been well aware and very keen in automating their processes in the tractor manufacturing to measure up in the highly competitive market. This paper provides a automation solution to an otherwise tedious, time-consuming and rather inefficient process of transferring machined products from its machining center to storage racks. The project involves the designing of the mechanical system integrated with electrical system and control of an Automated Guided Vehicle that would replace the existing labor-handled trolley. The project aims at providing a fully functional, economic, automated system to meet industrial standards and requirements. |
