Turn Table

I am working on theTurn table concept, it's working well when both the operator load the object at same time at Turn table(BasicFR1). But when the operators load at different time its not working properly. My doubt is operators will load at object at different time, if both the object are loaded it has to rotate otherwise, it has to wait until both the object loaded is there is any way to do it with process flow?

Thanks in Advance

You should probably use a process flow to coordinate everything.

Search for turntable models on this site.

Here's an example. I use a queue for the turntable as it can receive on both ports at the same time - I've set it to not release the items so the process flow has control of that). The process Flow also overrides the pullRequirement to ensure it only accepts one item from each port.
