how to make AGV stop and turn 90 degree at the corner using new AGVnetwork?

agv-90degree-turn.fsm

Recent AGV can run the path of rectangular corner not round for the purpose of the small space. I want to make AGV stop and turn 90 degree at four corners not round using new agvnetwork.

How can I make it?

FlexSim 17.1.4

@david.seo As far as I know that is currently not possible. We played with the same idea if you have AGV's that work according the kiva system (that can pick up a complete rack and rotate on the spot). What you can do is create a curved path with a very, very small radius. Then it looks like it is rotating on the spot.

Thank you for @steven.hamoen .

Yes. I had guided and tried to do it using very very small round curve connected for my customer. But making the small curve connection is very cumbersome in the case of many spots. And the accurate connections with path line is not also easy in the case of many spots.

I think the new agv module should be upgraded to some good features.

I hope the AGV control point will have the features of rotating AGV like the decision point's rotating item property.

Or after some time waiting at the spot, it continue to move.

I hope the control point of AGV module will have the features of network node of the old networkpath.

Thanks.
