Ha Martin, Based on the error message, I think that you have set the storage sizes on the container to 0? These are meant to indicate how much space a product is claiming on the container/pallet. So they should not be smaller than the size of the product that you want to store here. The help is sayi...

Ha Martin,

Can you post your simplified model, so I can have a look at it?

And which version of ED are you using?

Ha Yfke, One option would be to change the 3D visualization of the product to a cube (so not a carton box, barrel, ...). Of these more basic objects, you can change the color relatively easy using: color(i) := ColorRed. If it is really important to keep the carton box, we can have another look at it...

Ha Yfke, Here you have to help me since I'm not sure what you exactly want. What do you mean by: "move products in slow motion by a conveyor from one server to the other, without this being at the expense of calculations with real-time"? If you move a product over a conveyor, it will cost time, so i...

Ha Yfke, Yes, that is a measure to speed up the animation. However, I agree it would be nice if you have a bit more control over it. For the moment you can solve it using the following code on the entry- and exit trigger of the queue. With this code, you are placing the products yourself (which the ...

Ha Tim, You have to try to read the label that defines the offset from the product. And you are doing that by placing the code: label([column],in(2,c)) on the Advanced Transporter(AT). But if you look at the channels of the AT (Press Ctrl+R to show the channels and then right-click on any of the cha...

Hello Tim, 1) At which point are you placing the labels on the product? Because to make this work, these labels need to be there. If you look at the example model (Transport\AdvancedTransporter PickAndPlace1.mod) you can see that on the On Exit Trigger of the Source there some code written that plac...

Ha Tim, Making a reference to a table is relatively easy since you can check the box that you want to create an "alias". That is then automatically creating a reference (a concatenation starting with "ref" and than the name of your table) that you can use throughout your model. In other cases than a...

Ha Tim, In case of the model you linked to, the AT is called when a certain amount of products are created by the source (based on the order table). This code is standing on the "trigger on exit". On the initialize atom, global references are created which allows us to be able to easily refer to the...

Ha Amin, The ground storage indeed has no controls, so you will have to create such a control yourself. An easy way to do that is to split your product using a Server (1 in, B out where B is then 2) and mark those 2 products so you can link them. One product you send to the Ground Storage (make sure...
