Hello Heimann, Thanks for your question. Considering the creation of atoms by a Source, it would be better to close the output. The product connected to the input channel of the source does not actually enter the source, it is only used for referencing purposes. So in case you want to stop the creat...

Hello! Works like a charm again! Good the read that the model works with respect to the queues. So it seems that the functions in the function editor atom aren't initialized properly. What can cause this? Regarding the functions not initialized properly, this is most likely because of variables used...

Hello, Indeed there is. I assume you are working with an older version of Enterprise Dynamics, in which this strategy is not implemented yet for the predefined "Smallest queue" strategy. Within the new version of ED, strategy 14 has the following code: IndexMin(NrOC(c), if(OCReady(Count,c)...

Hello! I have updated your model considering: BTW, When I open my model, i first have to click every server, queue, source, and the function atom, to get things working properly - there is a initialization problem, which I can't figure out. The issues were caused by the fact that you had defined som...

Hello again! By what you are stating, it is not explainable to me as well! What is the capacity of the MultiServer? By default (when you drag in a new MultiServer), the capacity is 10. However, in case you provide 150 arrivals within 15 minutes and the capacity is 10 with a cycle time of 10, all arr...

Hello!

The example I gave assumed 5 output channels. In case you only have 2 output channels, it becomes easier:
For more information about the Mod function, please refer to the Help file.

Kind regards,

Hello! Try using the Mod function again. Assume you have 5 output channels, each will receive 20 products in a row. Then you can use the Mod function like this: Case( WhichIsTrue( Mod(Output(c), 100) < 20, Mod(Output(c), 100) < 40, Mod(Output(c), 100) < 60, Mod(Output(c), 100) < 80, True ), 1, 2, 3,...

Hello! To define the time between the picks it would be best to use the advanced transporter in combination with a network. On this network you can set the speed limits between the nodes. Further you should pick (i.e. calculate) the speeds in such a way that the time between picks matches your requi...

Hello! Unfortunately it is not possible to do this with the robot by default. To pick up products at different stations and drop them somewhere else, I would suggest to use the advanced transporter where you can define a load quantity. Please have a look at Picking processes for more information abo...

Hello! How do I reference the corresponding atom correct, by AtombyName([Prozessarea]) ?? You can use the input channels of the User Event atom to reference to the particular atom of interest. So connect the first input channel to the central channel of the queue, the involved atom will then be In(1...
