how to transport batch per travel with AGV

I have a process where I need the AGV waits for more items from a combiner before leaves. My combiner i am packing some products in a tote and I would like the AGV waits for more totes packed before leaving. I want to simulate from 1 to 9 totes per travel. Please Duo to I am not experience With PF, I would appreciated to receive response using picking list trigger or an update my model example attached to be more clear..

Hi @Roberto D

You do not need to use the PF to achieve your objetive. If you place a queue between the combiner and the AGV you can use the option "Perform Batching" in the queue, and update the "Target Batch Size" each time the queue is empty.

I attached you model with the modification explained. I hope this is usefull for you!!
