Capacity of the transporter

I want to set the transport11 to load items from Queue4 to Sink2.

Conditions for loading of transporters11.

Item 1 Capacity = 15

Item 2 Capacity = 10

Item 3 Capacity = 5

If my logic is possible, I want you to help follow my logic.

Thank you in advance for help.

Hi @Jeff CHN

I do not understand where you suggest that you have to set up anywhere?

Can you attach pictures or models?

Thank.

If your items are entering the queue in order (in batches), you can simply add the aforementioned block of code to a trigger in Queue1. You will additionally need to set the parameters for each item type. I built a small example model based on your parameters that should help you for your larger model.

There are other ways of doing this, but this should at least get you started. Let us know if you need additional help. Thanks!

Hi @Tanner Poulton

Is that possible? If I don't want to send the item to queue 2, queue 3, queue 4 but instead send the item to queue 1 instead.

Thank you.
