Have you done the AGV tutorials ? It explains you how to build paths for AGVs.

Hi Mathilde, first I modified the orientation of the AGV in SketchUp. So when I import this shape in FlexSim, the AGV is moving forward with the forks at the rear. In the FlexSim model, drag & drop a TaskExecuter and then browse for the SketchUp file. To set the location of the pallet correctly on the AGV, I used the OnLoad trigger.

Yes, it's good.

-Can I configurate a curve speed to the AGV?

-How can I doing to return the AGV on a parking point (the start point) as soon as it didn't have a mission.

-Can I import a autocad plan of plant in flexsim to make a plan on the floor?

- curved speed: see the AGV network properties. You can add several path classes, but there is already a curved class by default. In the table below you can set the AGV speed whether the path is straight/curved, if the AGV is loaded/empty, traveling forward/backwards and so on.

- send AGV to a park point when it's idle: see the "Travel to a Home Location" pickoption in the OnResourceAvailable trigger of a TaskExecuter.

- to import an autocad drawing, use the Background object in the Visual class of the library pane.
