이기종 물류로봇 통합 운용 시스템 및 그 방법이 개시된다. 본 발명의 실시예에 따른, 이기종 물류로봇 통합 운용 시스템은, 생산공장에서 물류를 이송하는 제1 물류로봇과 기종이 상이한 제2 물류로봇; 상기 제1 물류로봇의 운용상태를 제어하는 제1 로컬 제어 시스템과 상기 제2 물류로봇의 운용상태를 제어하는 제2 로컬 제어 시스템; 상기 제1 물류로봇 및 상기 제2 물류로봇의 위치정보를 수집하고 상기 위치정보를 토대로 미리 설정된 트래픽 영역 내에 상기 제1 물류로봇 및 상기 제2 물류로봇이 동시에 위치하는지 감시하는 통합 관제 시스템;을 포함하며, 상기 트래픽 영역 내에 상기 제1 물류로봇 및 상기 제2 물류로봇이 동시에 위치할 때 상기 통합 관제 시스템 및 상기 로컬 제어 시스템 중 적어도 하나의 시스템은 상기 물류로봇을 정지 또는 감속시킨 후 설정된 우선순위 조건에 따라 순차적으로 작동하도록 트래픽 제어를 수행한다. Disclosed are an integrated operation system for heterogeneous logistics robots and a method therefor. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the integrated operation system for heterogeneous logistics robots comprises: a first logistics robot and a second logistics robot of a different type therefrom that transport products in a production plant; a first local control system that controls an operating state of the first logistics robot and a second local control system that controls an operating state of the second logistics robot; and an integrated control system that collects location information of the first logistics robot and the second logistics robot, and monitors whether the first logistics robot and the second logistics robot are simultaneously located within a preset traffic area on the basis of the location information, wherein when the first logistics robot and the second logistics robot are simultaneously located within the traffic area, at least one system among the integrated control system and the local control systems causes the logistics robots to stop or reduce speed, and then performs traffic control to cause the logistics robots to operate sequentially according to a set priority condition.
