I have this model and the task executers are supposed to deliver boxes to Chipera and Logyard (Processors 1 and 2 respectively), prioritizing Chipera. For an unknown reason, after a few seconds the model is running, the task executers stop delivering flowitems to Chipera and they only deliver to Logyard.
Does anyone know how can I fix this?
Thank you very much.
Kind regards,
Felipe
I have fixed the model so that now it will not skip over Chipera anymore. When the AGV recieves its assignment to go to one of the processors, this sometimes occurs while the Chipera is still processing. This is why it appears to be going to the Logyard first. If this is something that you'd like changed we can adjust the process flow to make it always check if Chipera is operational before assigning a processor.
Hi Zachary, thank you very much!! This really helped.
The only thing is that the task executer shouldn´t wait until the processor finishes for returning, it should depart right away after unloading the flowitem.
Do you think you can help me on fixing this?
Once more, thank you very much!
Regards,
Felipe
All you will need to do is delete the "Wait for Event Processor Finish" within the process flow and then the AGV will no longer wait at the processors.
Also you could add another control point along the path to have the AGV's moving faster. An AGV will look 2 decision points ahead to check if anything is available before moving.
