Re: Portal-Cran

Hello! In what way is the color of the products determined? Do they have different icons? If so, then you can use predefined SendTo strategy 12, and alter it to refer to the different icon numbers (use an Or-statement to combine your two types). Otherwise you could compare the color of the product a...

Re: Queue modelling

Hello Yannick, I am not sure how you are determining the utilization, but you can adjust your utilization by the following code OnExit of the server: If( And( { * Queue is empty * } Content(In(1, c)) = 0, { * Availability Control is "down" * } Att([Available], Out(2, c)) = 0 ), { * Adjust ...

Re: Mttf- Mttr Availability

Hello! Thanks for the clarification. Once a container (customer) enters, the status of the assembler is set to 22 (collecting). After the products (food and drinks) are all collected, the cycle time starts and the status of the assembler is set to 2 (busy). Do you want the "operator" to vi...

Re: Mttf- Mttr Availability

Hello!

I have some questions about your model. My first question is: what are you assembling on the "table"? Second: Is there only one table in your restaurant? Third: What are you trying to simulate with the breakdown at the table?

Kind regards,

Marvin

Re: multiple order picker

Hello, Let's first check whether I understand your system correctly. You have two different types of cases, each with a different color to indicate the two different freight forwarders they will be sent to. The cases will be filled with products with random colors, the quantity may differ and does (...

Re: Developing a sensor atom without polling

Hello! Indeed polling should be avoided as much as possible. Can you tell us something more about your model? Where are the "sensors" located? How do atoms move through your model? A description of your model could clarify this, posting the model itself (or the relevant part of it) would b...

Re: Queue modelling

Hello! Can't you control the queue with the schedule, instead of the server? So when the closing time of the counter is due, close the queue in front of the counter such that no new customers can enter. Because the server is still available, the customers being present in the queue already will be t...

Re: MoveRequest error

Hello Jorge! Thanks for your model. In the Assembler, you are overruling the default behavior of the MultiService atom. Instead of sending a product from the MultiService when it has completed its cycle time, you are pulling the atom out of the MultiService when a product entered the Assembler. This...

Re: MoveRequest error

Hello! The MoveRequest function should not generate access violations. Are you using default atom code, or did you modify atoms (e.g. put a MoveRequest in a Entry or Exit trigger) yourself? As you indicate that: the model runs correctly for a few products then i get this error : 4DScript:error at &q...

Re: Warehouse overflow

Hello, In the model you attached, the labels were not used correctly. As you are using the label [Name] to indicate the column it should be stored in, the label should not have a string but a value from 1 to 4. I have changed this such that the products are placed in the correct column. Further I ha...
