Multiple TaskExecutors to move 1 box

Hello everyone, I need to move 1 box from point A to point B using x2 task executors.
In my model as you can see, 1 box is moved by only 1 task executors, I need 2 task executors assigned to the traveling task. Any idea?

In reality, boxes are Geopallets, quite big. We need 2 AGVs to move them around our factory.

Thanks, Guillaume

Simulation: you do this with coordinated tasksequences. The structure consists of synchronize task to get a taskexecuter which carries the items and another taskexecuter simultaneously to the same destination. You achieve the same in process flow with the coordination activities (Split, Synchronize and Join).

Visually I would do it differently. One AGV attaches two trailers. First trailer is you product. The second is a new created item, which will look like an AGV and into this item I move the second AGV. After separation I put the second AGV back to the track and destroy the created flowitem. You have to take care of the membership of both involved taskexecuters in your AGV-Track-System.
