Heavy-duty Truck Production Lines——how to adapt to the production needs of different models

Heavy Truck Assembly Lines/Production Lines are Suitable to Assemble/Produce trucks.

Heavy-duty Truck Production Lines adapt to the production needs of different models through the following aspects:

Modular and Flexible Design: Heavy-duty truck assembly lines are typically designed with modularity to accommodate the production of various models. This design allows the production line to be adjusted according to the specific needs of different truck models, including differences in wheelbase, total vehicle weight, and dimensions.

Mixed-line Production: The production line is capable of mixed-line production for various types of trucks. This means that trucks of different models can be produced on the same assembly line, improving the utilization and flexibility of the production line.

Mobile Robot Technology: The use of mobile robots (AGVs) enhances system flexibility and seamlessly integrates with the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to adapt to production tasks for various truck models. Mobile robots can automatically adjust their posture dynamically and respond quickly to current production tasks.

Dual Vehicle Linkage Technology: To meet the special needs of heavy-duty truck assembly with mixed wheelbases, dual vehicle linkage technology has been developed. Through information linkage, two AGVs operate synchronously, adjusting their speed and distance from each other automatically.

Follow AGV Technology: Customized follow AGVs can operate in sync with the assembly line. Assembly personnel stand on the follow AGVs, which run to fixed locations, trigger RFID, and report to the mobile robot control station (TCS), achieving synchronized operation with the main line.

Intelligence and Automation: Heavy-duty truck assembly lines use AGVs for assembly, reducing ground construction and the need for changes to the factory foundation, while increasing the level of automation, improving the working environment, and reducing the labor intensity for workers.

System Compatibility: The production line system is compatible with logistics AGV dispatching from other manufacturers, achieving compatible management. This ensures safety in collision avoidance, improves dispatch efficiency, and reduces customer management costs.

Through these technologies and management strategies, heavy-duty truck assembly lines can flexibly adapt to the production needs of different truck models, improving production efficiency and product quality.
