How do I make my AGV transport 4 combined pallets at the same time?

I'm using a simple AGV network. A queue with batching (Batch size 4). I need the AGV to transport all 4 pallets at the same time to the drop off zone. I prefer the 3D model. Any help is appreciated!

@Kavitha S

Please send your model next time you need help, that way we can better help you specifically with your model.

You can change the carrying capacity of the agv so that it will pick up 4 items that are part of the batch.

Here is an example of loading items into the AGV using Process Flow, which we recommend.

Thank you, @zachary.h

This only works when i have only one AGV. PFA my model, I want the AGVs to always only carry 4 boxes. (NOT less than or equal to 4, but exactly 4 every single time)

The model you attached does not use any agv's?

If you change the capacity of the agv's it should always pick up the batch.
