Is it possible to make a sequence of pick-pick-place for a robot?

In my project I need that a robot (Robot3) moves through 4 stations. In particular at first a new piece arrives, it moves it to a processor (laser) but before, by considering the regime case, it has to pick the product after laser (placed in laser end), then it moves to the silicone station and has to make the same task as before. I also upload the file since I have an error dealing with Pallet MBC out but it doesn't affect the simulation at all 6.fsmimmagine-2022-07-23-100242.jpg

Just put it on a network:

Model:

6_jl.fsm

If you need better control of the cycle you can try to give priorities to the tasks sequences generated by the transportdispatcher triggers, or create a process flow to create the tasks instead.

The file you sent back works fine but just with the first 2 stations. Did you implenent something other than the networks since I don't understand how to change it?

No I just added the network and attached the robot to a node and the destination objects to respective nodes.

Ok, so now I try to solve for the last stations. Thank you

Just another question, if I try to implement MTBF/MTTR at the 3 stations, after a certain number of cycles the simulation crashes when a failure happens to the Oring station. I attach the new file pro_failure.fsm

It would be best to start a new post for this new question. Since Jason has helped you with this model and is familiar with it you can tag him in the new question.
