CarrGo® Sorter: Parcel Sorting System with Autonomous Multi-Robots
An autonomous multi-robot sorting system, CarrGo Sorter, efficiently sorts parcels with reduced human dependency and increased speed.
The CarrGo Sorter System uses a fleet of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) with embedded sensors and RFID-based localization to navigate a grid platform. It integrates barcode readers and real-time communication protocols to achieve high sorting throughput. Simulation and field tests demonstrated that the system can increase sorting speed while avoiding collision risk through centralized traffic management.
Abstract
This paper presents the design, development, and validation of the CarrGo® Sorter System, an autonomous multi-robot sorting system for logistics and cargo handling environments. The system automates parcel classification, routing, and transferring operations using a fleet of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) controlled by a software. Each robot is equipped with embedded sensors, magnetic line follower, and RFID-based localization to navigate a structured grid platform. By integrating barcode reader and real-time communication protocols, the CarrGo® Sorter System achieves high sorting throughput with reduced dependency on human operators. Simulation and field tests demonstrated that the system can increase sorting speed while avoiding collision risk through centralized traffic management. The results support the potential of multi-agent robotic platforms to improve intralogistics by combining embedded control, intelligent coordination, and autonomous navigation.
