Abstract: This article presents the trend and application of AS/RS and AGV in Taiwan, and the number of deployment in various industries are demonstrated and compared. It can be seen that the electronic industry employs more AS/RS and AGV than others. The application of AS/RS and AGV in distribution centres is also discussed. The ongoing program of Asia-Pacific Regional Operation Center is believed to require even more material handling equipment; therefore, a prosperous era can be expected.

Keywords: AS/RS; AGV; Asia-Pacific Regional Operation Center; FMS; CIM; automated guided vehicles; automated storage/retrieval systems; automated materials handling. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
