TaskExecuter based on Process Time of Processors

alessandro_supino — Mon, 23 Jan 2017 14:46:59 GMT

[ FlexSim 16.2.2 ]

I have 1 source, 1 taskexecuter and 3 processors.

I would want that taskexecuter load item from source and deliver it to processor based on process time of processors.

I would want to start with 3 different process time of processors. When a processor processes item i would want that its process time update.

@Alessandro Supino,

Based on what process time? Highest, lowest? And update the process time to what? If you have a label on the processor with the current process time, then in the OnProcessFinish trigger, you could update that label with the new process time.

@Alessandro Supino,

Attached is a sample model that I believe will do what you describe. The transporter will deliver the flowitem to the processor with the shortest processing time. When the flowitem is dropped off to a processor, it will update the process time to the next process time for that processor.

In ControlPoint6, I reopen the input port of Queue4 so that a flowitem will come into the queue and decide which processor it should be sent to.

If you have any questions, please let me know.
