01 / CHALLENGE

The challenge

AGVs move between loading areas and assembly lines, exchanging position, load and status data. Fixed cabling is impractical, and reliable communication across access areas is essential.

02 / APPROACH

The approach

Configure wireless terminals around the PLC and Modbus TCP requirements, and plan access coverage and roaming across the workshop. Commission and verify connectivity along actual travel paths.
