I believe you just needed to reconnect the way your dispatcher is set up. You had the dispatcher centerport connected to the machines, but you had the robot as the only task executer "out" connected from the dispatcher.

I disconnected the operators from each machine, and connected them to the dispatcher instead. So now the dispatcher will receive tasks and distribute them on a first available basis, meaning the operators will now move between the stations based on whatever task is given to them.

@Sam Stubbs Hello Sam, In my model. The loading and Unloading will be done by the Robot as it is in the model which I attached. But as you can see in the model, the human operators are standing infront of the stations. I need changes there. I want the human operators to only move the positions , they should not do load and unload. Can you help me with this?

If you don't want the operators to do the loading and unloading then just change the value for "Use Operator for Load" field in each of the processors. Right now it is using the dispatcher which is redirecting it to the operators. if you want the Robot to do the loading and unloading, make sure that field references the robot.
