In my model, AGV4 and AGV5 should drop off their load on the ControlPoint14 (linked to Queue3) and pick up it at ControlPoint15 (linked to Queue5) every time that there is something to do it.
My problem is that each AGV executes (linked to a Dispatcher) pick up or drop off each cycle but not the two actions in the same tour.
How can I get a look-for-work every control point?
I attach the model for reference
Hi @Francisco LP,
It's important the control points have been connected using "Next Look For Work" connections in a full loop so that they are always looking for something to do. This is discussed in the AGV Tutorial in the User Manual and can also be seen demonstrated in the example model I've attached. You may want to go through these tutorials so the AGV logic is more clear.
Hi @tanner.p and @Francisco LP ,
I tried to solve the problem with the AGV-Module and a Waypoint an AGVNetwork Properties.
But it doesn´t work!?
Tanner, when you use AGV-Module, how do you stop an AGV on a ControlPoint and wait until a new order/work comes in?
Here my model enclosed.
When you say "stop and wait until a new order comes in", do you mean like a parking spot for inactive AGVs? Or just stopping the AGV when no work is available? Sorry, I'm not exactly sure.
