How to couple two pallets with tugger AGV?

Hello

I dont have been sucesfull for to control tugger AGV.

I need that AGV couple aways two pallets from queue "buffer de saída", and the pallet with label 1 has destiny to queue "buffer linha de motores" and pallet with label 22 has destiny to "buffer de expedição". I was able to attach the pallets to the AGV, but not the loaded pallets coming from queue.

First of all "Buffer de saída" 's send to port is trying to push items to a global list that does not exist - so you have an exception at 36038.59.

Did you upload the correct model?

I think your previous question is about the same subject. New is here that the item that is connected as a trailer and it is a loaded pallet instead of a single item. A problem is, that a taskexecuter is not aware of any destinations of items on a pallet. It will be your task to load a pallet, attach it as a trailer and then to let move the taskexecuter to destinations accordingly to the items on a pallet.

It would be nice, you can demonstrate your problem with an example rather than with your working model. It needs really some time to understand when and what you want to get as your desired behavior implemented.

This model seems to be a part a of a thesis and there exists a code of academic integrity.

Hello, Mr. Joerg

I wasnt clear in my question. I'm Sorry

I Intend the AGV take every time that two pallets are avaible in queue "buffer de saída".

the pallets is the wagon, i attached the picture for you to view wagon.jpg

I have been tryed to do AGV take the both pallets and go first to "buffer linha de motores" and after to "buffer expedição", but I dont have success to do AGV tugs the pallets.

I looked for some exemplos, but normaly the exemples create the wagon.

I have adjusted my model to change an item type of a box to a pallet.

Code is on Entry of Queue attach trailer and on Unload of Taskexecuter1.attach_trailer_by_code_and_move_a_red_box.fsm

Hello, Mr. Vogel

Do you have another similar exemples of my case?

@Rafael de Assis, I haven’t. If I answer or comment, I build a new model. For testing purpose you should do it, too. A final working model is not a good project for testing.

Hello,

I'm sorry for incovenience, but my goal is to built a model whose AGV goes to queue "Buffer de saída" when in this queue have two palets.

the pallets have the conditions:

1. or the pallets have 4 flowitens whose label can be 5, 22, 320 or 4100. this pallets must to be unload in queue "buffer de expedição"

2. or the pallets have 8 flowitens whose label is 1. this pallet must to be unload in queue "buffer linha de motores"

- In my model, the pallets are being assembled correctly with their appropriate lebels.

- on exit of each "combiner", I assign a label for the pallet. label number 1 is assign for pallets whose destiny is "buffer linha de motores" and number 22 whose destiny is "buffer de expedição".

My problem is to do the AGV couble two palets like a tugger AGV every time that have two pallets avaible in queue "Buffer de saída" and leave the pallets in respective destiny.

like i attached the picture, in realy each pallet has a structure if rollers whose AGV can be drags.

thank you!
