Zusammenfassung:An AGV system comprising a plurality of AGVs operating in a workspace is provided. The workspace having at least one alley in which AGVs are not allowed to pass each other. A central control unit hasaccess to a stored representation of the workspace, wherein in the stored representation of the workspace an entrance/exit node is located immediately outside a respective entrance, wherein before a first AGV carrying a load and being located externally of the alley and having a planned route into said alley, is allowed to occupy a portion of the workspace that corresponds to one of said entrance/exit nodes in the stored representation of the workspace, the control unit determines if there is a risk of conflict with any other AGV already present in the alley. A method of controlling an AGV system is also provided. 提供了一种AGV系统,该AGV系统包括在工作空间中运行的多个AGV。该工作空间具有不允许AGV彼此交错通过的至少一个巷道。中央控制单元可以访问该工作空间的所存储表示,其中,在该工作空间的所存储表示中,入口/出口节点紧接相应入口的外部定位,其中,在第一AGV承载负载并且定位于该巷道外部并且具有进入所述巷道的规划路线之前,允许该第一AGV占据该工作空间中对应于该工作空间的所存储表示中的所述入口/出口节点之一
