Conditions

I would like to simulate the following scenario:

When S2 is running and S3 is running as well, the blue buffer is bypassed and pieces go from conveyor to processor (S3).

When S2 is running and S3 is down, the robot would populate the blue tray.

When S2 is down and S3 is running, the robot would use the pieces of the tray so S3 is not starved.

I cannot make my robot use the blue tray though. Nor populate it when S3 is down. I used time tables in order to have them down at different times and see the logic work easily.

Thanks!

Hi @Karina GM2,

I think this updated model should do the trick. I basically took all of the cases that you mentioned and applied them in a Process Flow. The idea is that the token will check each condition and depending on the condition, it will load/unload items from the designated locations.

Let me know if you have any questions or if this doesn't quite do what you were expecting. The logic should be pretty straightforward.
