Can I model a shuttle system using FlexSim?

This is done in Demo 3D. Can I create the same shuttle system that groups the right items to the right lanes on FlexSim?

Yes, you can. It is a combination of standard objects, animation or kinematics, and user defined or created shapes. It is a complex project. What do you really want to know on the way to achieve the aim? Can you be a bit more precise? Thanks.

@Jörg Vogel How would I model vertical lift with only X number of spots that operates at a rate Y. I am not able to make the conveyors on Flexsim vertical. Is there any other work around ?

Yes there is a workaround. You place the conveyor inside a visual plane as container and then you rotate the plane in the manner that it gets a vertical orientation. This method is the last answer in the Q and A section of the old Flexsim Community Forum.
