Hi,
I have modeled a steel stockyard for horizontal storage (stacking) of steel plates. The steel plates will be transported with a gantry crane to the required queue and I have created a global table to command the crane to pick up the required plates.
In actual practice, the crane will have to pick up the plates from above to get to the plates below. However, the simulation only shows the plate being taken straight from the queue. Is there a way to simulate the shuffling of the steel plates to get to the steel plate required? The time required to shuffle each plate is 3 minutes and the plates can be lifted to other storage queues during shuffling.plate-shuffling.fsm
I have attached the model above. Thanks.
