[0071] S104: Implement the optimal real-time scheduling plan for the pallet warehouse to the actual production line, monitor the execution effect of the production line, input the monitoring data into the production process model, and continuously optimize the real-time scheduling plan for the pallet warehouse.
[0072] In this embodiment, the pallet transport module is used to control the AGV to perform autonomous path planning according to the real-time scheduling plan of the pallet library in the data processing and analysis module, so as to realize the intelligent storage and automatic transportation of pallets. At the same time, the pallet transport module will adjust and optimize the path planning plan of the AGV in real time according to the actual situation of the production line, and is responsible for coordinating the real-time control tasks such as the scheduling of the AGV and path conflict avoidance.
[0073] Specifically, the pallet transport module dynamically plans a path for the AGV according to the specified arrival time and the specified arrival location in the real-time scheduling plan of the pallet warehouse; the pallet carrying the product is carried by the AGV, so that the pallet and the product carried by the pallet are put into storage;
[0074] When the AGV operates according to the optimal real-time dispatch plan for the pallet warehouse, monitor whether the AGV has any emergency problems, including but not limited to insufficient power and damaged parts. When an emergency problem occurs in the AGV, the pallet transport module initiates an emergency response, allowing the spare AGV to replace the current AGV and complete the pallet warehouse task that the current AGV is performing.
[0075] Specifically, the pallet transport module controls the AGV with pallets to arrive at the specified location at the specified time according to the real-time dispatching plan of the pallet warehouse output by the data processing and analysis module. The pallet transport module uses the A* algorithm to plan the path of the AGV. The specific execution steps of the pallet transport module to control the AGV are:
[0076] S201: The pallet transportation module receives the real-time scheduling plan of the pallet library output by the data processing and analysis module, wherein the scheduling plan includes the designated destination and arrival time requirement of the pallet;

[0086] Specifically, after the pallet transport module completes the path planning of the AGV, it needs to determine how the AGV automatically stores and retrieves pallets; the data processing and analysis module will determine the optimal storage location for each pallet based on the specific layout and size of the pallet warehouse and the storage requirements of the pallets, and based on the pallet storage planning algorithm optimized for space, with pallet space utilization as the optimization goal, and each pallet must be placed in a designated storage location, there must be no overlap between pallets, the pallets cannot exceed the boundaries of the pallet warehouse, and the size and storage requirements of each pallet must be met as constraint goals.
[0087] The pallet transport module formulates storage instructions based on the optimal storage position of each pallet, and directs the AGV to autonomously navigate to the designated pallet storage position in the pallet library according to the planned path and sequence; when the AGV needs to store or retrieve a pallet, it uses automated equipment such as robotic arms and sensors to transport the pallet to the target storage position, realize the loading and unloading of the pallet, and achieve automated transportation and retrieval of the pallet.
[0088] During the operation of the AGV, the operating status of the AGV and the pallet storage and retrieval process are monitored in real time to promptly detect and respond to possible abnormal situations.

At the same time, the pallet transport module will notify relevant personnel to coordinate resources to jointly deal with the emergency problem.
[0094] S2054: Feedback the feedback information of abnormal situations and treatment measures to the data processing and analysis module to optimize the real-time scheduling plan of the pallet warehouse.
[0095] At the same time, the data processing and analysis module will obtain the actual storage and access status of the AGV, analyze and optimize the real-time scheduling plan of the pallet warehouse, and dynamically adjust the storage layout of the pallet warehouse and the operation strategy of the AGV according to changes in production needs, continuously improving storage density and transportation efficiency.
