Abstract
- This study deals with the Automated Guided Vehicle System guide path design problem. We suggest a single closed loop guide path layout configuration as an alternative to conventional but more complex guide path designs. The benefits of using a simple guide path versus more complicated guide paths are discussed. A procedure for designing an optimal single loop guide path for a given facility layout is presented. Finally, the single loop's throughput performance is tested and compared to that of a more complex guide path. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
