In the attached simulation, as it continues to run, the inbound pallets from _B_Rear line get backed up due to other inbound pallets. How do I go about setting up the conveyors so the incoming pallets don't back up?
Any help would be great.
Hello @Sean B,
I was able to fix the problem you indicated by adding decision points and using the "restricted area" feature of conveyors. This essentially allows the pallets to take turns at each junction, so one line doesn't get backed up more than the others. I added this logic to each of the junctions necessary on the right side of the model. Depending on what happens on the left side of the model, it may be advantageous to reproduce it on that side. In addition, you can add priorities, so that certain types go before others and whatnot.
I'll attach the edited model to this post. Hope this helps!
P.S. Your FlexSim software is a little out-of-date. The current version for your license is 21.0.7.
