Combiner assembly problem

Hello,

First of all sorry, because I'm new using Flexsim and probably this is a easy question for you, but i can't find the solution in the forum (i study a car assembly, pallets, etc...).

I want to make an easy assembly of three parts (my models) using the crane, but really, i do not know how to combine the use of the crane and the assembly. I tried to use 1 queue for each part, and use the combiner to join the parts, but the final pieze appears with some parts rotating or moving (if I tried to move or rotate them in the trigger (combiner), I move all the pieces).

Obviusly, if I change the 3D shape, it makes an ugly effect.

Thank you.

@José Antonio MAD

Any chance you can send us your model? I could make a sample model but may not fit exactly with what you are trying to do. And with your model, the changes could be made directly to it so that you can see how it is done. Also your explanation , looking at your model, would make more sense.

I can't send you my all my real model, so I send you an example of my problem (is exactly the same, I only change the 3D shapes).

I send you two models: one is the idea of the project, and the other one is how I want to do it.

Thank you so much for your help.

@José Antonio MAD,

Attached is your model with the changes that I've made. Pretty much all the changes are on the OnEntry trigger of the combiner. It's just a matter of when the crane drops off a part, I stopped the model and moved that part to where it was supposed to be. Not real easy in your case because the flowitems aren't facing the regular X, Y, Z coordinates. But it can still be done. Then I put those seperate part locations in the OnEntry trigger (in the code area) and they are then placed in the proper location.

I hope this helps you figure out what you need to do with your particular model to get it to work the way you want. Let me know if you have any problems.

Thank you so much for your help. Today, I have use a similar solution before your answer (moddiffing "on entry"), but the result was worst. Thank you again!
