I have a sheet-metal part processed in a punching machine to produce several parts. the case is that I've a single item(Sheet) entering a separator to produce several parts (punched products) based on the program loaded. is there a way to change item type for each processed part after process finish (not on exit) so that i will be able to send each part to its required destination.
I've attached a simple model to illustrate my problem
Looks like assigning labels would have to be done post processing. The separator does the split sometime between the end of processing and the parts exiting the separator. One idea is to have a queue between the separator and the 5 queues where you would assign labels using on exit for the separator, or on entry for the queue. Also do you just want it rotating through specific numbers to assign as item types, or what are you basing your item type change on?
i just want to segregate between produced parts to be able to transport them individually to a different destinations.
Hi, @Mohamed R3
i have attached a simple sample model where the item type have been changed after process finish and placed a queue after that. from there sending the item type wherever needed
hope this is helpful
my problem is the same in your model; when assigning label after process finish both the split parts holds the same label value. to solve it as @Joshua S said it must be assigned on exit or on entry of the next object
