How can Operator move 500 tokens at a time Robot plaeces one by one

Hello,

I have a question how can operator move from Queue Zaboj Rebra, 500 tokens at a time in Queue Zalogovnik 2 Rebra. Than Robot 1 moves one token at a time to Combiner zakovanje?

Hi @Zan K,

One of the easiest ways to do this is using process flow to move the 500 boxes then conventional 3D logic to have the robot move them to a combiner one by one.

Push the 500 boxes to a global item list.
Create the following process flow:
Configure the activities:
1. Source: The source creates 1 token. Assign to token.Operator
2. Resource: Operator: Set the resource reference to the operator using the sampler.
3. Delay: Used for debugging, not necessary
4. Travel: Have token.Operator travel to Queue2 (Where the 500 boxes are)
5. BoxList: Link this list to your global item list.
6. Pull from List: Request to Pull 500 Boxes. Make sure to assign them to a token label like token.Boxes.
7. Move Object: Boxes into Operator: Move token.Boxes into token.Operator
8. Travel: Move to Queue4: Have token.Operator move to Queue4
9. Move Object: Move Boxes into Queue 4. Move token.Boxes into Queue 4. It is easiest to select Queue 4 by using the sampling tool.
Connect Queue4 to the Combiner using a port connection.
Connect Robot1 to Queue 4 using a center-port connection.
Make sure to configure the combiner settings.

This should give you the behavior you are looking for.
