In this paper, in order to solve the needs of a pharmaceutical factory’s logistics system for multiple automated guided vehicles (AGV), a set of AGV scheduling system architecture was developed on the basis of the outdoor heavy-duty AGV that has been developed. Firstly, a WiFi wireless network communication environment is established in the factory area. The AGV side establishes a TCP/IP connection with the dispatching system through the MOXA bridge. The communication application layer uses the MQTT protocol widely used in the Internet of Things, and combines the production beats, considering the task distribution and path Planning and other possible realistic factors, developing scheduling software, and establishing a factory environment scheduling model. Through function test and performance test, the feasibility of the system is verified. This solution is conducive to improving the scheduling system’s ability to handle high concurrent tasks and increasing the cargo transportation throughput of the logistics system.
