Capstone Project Final Presentations: Senior Design Project with Electrolux

Cherry Kim, Lillian A. McGowen, Stefano T. Ingargiola, and Joseph T. Capra recently presented their final capstone project for Electrolux. Their year-long senior design project focused on selecting and evaluating Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) for Electrolux’s factory in Kinston, NC. The primary goal was to streamline and automate the transportation of parts within the facility, enhancing manufacturing efficiency.

Throughout the project, the team worked diligently on navigating AGV technology choices, optimizing factory routes, and determining the required number of vehicles based on the factory’s throughput and operational demands. Their final presentation demonstrated their comprehensive approach to the project and the practical solutions they developed to improve Electrolux’s operations.
