Generating Boxes onto Pallets

Hi,

I am trying to generate pallets and then generate boxes onto those pallets, followed by transporter putting them away onto the racks based on the paint slots. I was able to do it with the boxes only but would like to generate the pallets and then boxes before putting them away onto the racks. Would love if someone could help me out with this. Thank you.

@suhasee, please use the search tool of this site. Doing this is a principle of academic research. Thank you! And if you are reading articles here at this site, there is another really interesting one: FlexSim’s policy on academic integrity

one possible answer.

Hi @Joerg Vogel,

Thank you will definitely check the link out. I was just wondering why it wouldve worked with the boxes and not with the pallets, will look into it though, thanks again.

There are many posts about this, but if you want the space taken to be used by the racks or for the full pallets to be stacked, you should consider using an auto-sizing pallet like the one in this post.
