AGV needs to load and unload rack-shelf with 6 boxes

Hi, I need to create simulation where AGV needs to load and unload racks or shelfs (on the top of AGV, not as a trailer). In rack we will have 6 boxes with same type. Operator will fill boxes in rack and after he finished AGV needs to load rack with boxes. Then he need to travel to location and unload rack.

Should I use rack as carrier?AGV_Pick up Rack.7z

This does not make any sense to use a rack object. You are better off with a simple container item like a tote or pallet. You put the items into the tote and change their locations in relation to the tote. If you need a different look, then you exchange the shape of the container item.

So idea is to use change visual with position when Operator placing boxes on container(shape of rack) and then AGV will load container on him self?

I just want to say that this is usual case from production where AGV will load rack.

Also in future we will use gravity racks with AGV.
