Manual AGV Belt-Line Layout for Intralogistics AGV Solutions

Project scope

We planned a manual belt-line production layout for assembly and inspection work. The concept uses a long operator-attended line with seated work positions on both sides, a central belt-line structure and workstation modules for programming, testing, DFU checking, air-pressure-meter handling, image review and appearance inspection. That makes the scope a intralogistics agv solutions application for manual belt-line programming, testing and visual inspection.

The available project material focuses on the layout concept, line dimensions and workstation arrangement. It does not include confirmed cycle time, equipment price, labor-reduction target, output calculation or ROI, so those values are not assigned here.

Turning a manual route into an organized line

The process is still manually attended, so the value is not full automation for every operation. The design challenge is to organize repeated manual checks into a stable line where material movement, operator access, power, displays, scanning and testing tools all have defined positions.

Reserving future capacity without crowding operators

The layout reserves space for three future lines while keeping human passages and an observation passage visible in the plan. That means the immediate line must be compact enough for the current process while leaving a clear expansion path.

Line footprint and expansion plan

The confirmed layout dimensions show a 17,000 mm line length, 13,200 mm reserved layout depth and 2,000 mm line height in the side view. The plan reserves a future three-line layout and shows human passages between lines plus an observation passage along one side.

Area	Confirmed planning value
Main line length	17,000 mm
Reserved layout depth	13,200 mm
Side-view line height	2,000 mm
Future expansion	Three-line reserved layout
Operator access	Human passages between lines and observation passage beside the layout
Material transfer concept	AGV transfer route shown from line head to line tail

Station sequence

The process-flow page shows the product moving from the line head to the line tail under an AGV transfer concept. The repeated station sequence includes:

1. Programming 1.
2. Test 1.
3. Programming 2.
4. DFU test.
5. Air-pressure-meter operation.
6. Image review 1.
7. Image review 2.
8. Appearance inspection.

Workstation components

The workstation concept includes operator seats, guide documents, lighting, barcode scanners, test instruments, belt line sections, displays, computer hosts, power cabinets and utility sockets. We treat these as defined line-support modules rather than optional accessories, because each one affects operator ergonomics and repeatability.

Workstation element	Role in the line
Guide documents	Keeps station instructions visible to operators
Lighting	Supports inspection and manual handling visibility
Barcode scanner	Supports product or process identification at the station
Test instrument	Supports station-level electrical or functional checks
Display and computer host	Provides operator interface and test/review information
Belt line and power cabinet	Carries product flow and supplies line power
Operator seating and utility sockets	Defines manual working posture and station service access

Proposed operating result

The resulting concept converts a set of manual programming, testing and inspection steps into a clearer production-line layout. The design defines the line size, operator placement, process sequence, AGV transfer direction and future expansion envelope.

Process value

The main value is layout discipline. Instead of leaving programming, test, image review and appearance inspection as loosely arranged manual work areas, the concept places them along a shared belt-line flow with defined access paths and support components. Because the project material does not provide production rate, staffing comparison, investment amount or payback data, we do not claim unsupported savings or ROI.
