Hello All,
Operational Description:
A1-A4 are the infeed sections.
B1-B4 are the outfeed sections.
There are four AGVs that start working from the charging area.
Problem:
Deadlock occurs during operation.
My idea: Can the AGVs be redirected to the nearest bypass point to avoid deadlock?
For example, AGV4 will come to brCP1 to resolve the deadlock issue.
Is this a common solution?
Or are there any other solutions?
Kind regards

Hey @Huo, you could take a look at the documentation section on preventing collisions and deadlock. Some of the suggestions include using control areas [another resource] for two-way paths that may cause dead-locks. In newer versions of FlexSim (v.23+) the OnAllocationFailed trigger will tell you if deadlock occurred.
