Abstract

In the design of AGVS (Automated Guided Vehicle Systems), one of the important problem is to determine the number of AGVs required to provide a given level of transport service. At present, there are two kind of methods to determine the number of AGVs, the one is to use the mathematical model, the other is to use the simulation technique. Among these, simulation based technique is more reliable than analytical method. In this sense, this paper intend to determine the optimal number of AGVs using personal computer simulation by SIMAN Ver.3.5.
