The goal of this simulation is outlined in the images attached
Problem: The Truck will self rotate away from the source orientation after it exits the second conveyor in my simulation model. I have tried using ''Decision Point" but to no avail.
Moreover, despite successfully combining the truck and the item at the 'Loading', my sink does not capture the item after separating them.
Can someone please offer me some guidance on how to resolve these challenges........
The combiners are set to "Join" which deletes the packed items. You want them set to "Pack".
And instead of using the DPs to rotate the trucks on the conveyor, you can set their entry orientation on the EntryTransfer.
Or you adjust the trucks 'shape factors', so the shape is oriented such that "forward" is the positive x-axis.
I am able to solve the issue partially, by changing the 'LoadingQueue', Triggers to On Entry, Visual, 'Set Rotation', 'Z' Value to '0'.
However, the issue where the sink is unable to capture the item still persists. Is that why, my item does not visually appear to be joined with the Truck on top and why the Truck does not queue behind one another directly?
