AGV Patch Connection in Z Direction

[kitty_c]

[ FlexSim 19.0.9 ]

Hello all,

I'd like to creat some AGV path in different height and connect them, as the following image

the first level start at (2,0,0), and the following is (2,0,1), (2,0,2), (2,0,3)

I creat a Z direction AGV patch by enter coordinate, start at (2,0,0) and end at (2,0,3)

But the second and third level is unconnected.

Sometimes even creat Z directionente rcoordinate by enter coordinate, it also can not connect at begin or end.

I also tried join paths or move the patch by mouse, but it doesn't work

Is there any way to easy connect the AGV patch in Z direction

Thanks

You put paths in a visual plane and rotate the plane.

Or you change the grid height to the level, where you want to build connections.

You select the objects of the AGV path system and move them into an highlighted Visual Plane object.

The command button is in the tool Edit Selected Objects.You open the tool under View in main menu bar.

Then you can rotate the plane. If you want to add more object of the system, you must move them into the plane, too.

Thanks Jörg Vogel,

For my understanding, for 1st way is I can draw the route like the image above,

Then rotate the plane?

But how can I rotate the plane?

Would you mind explain me a lttle more?

I have updated my answer. A plane is an object from the Visual section of the library.

Hi Jörg Vogel,

Many thanks for your kindness, I got it...

But I found when I use this way, AGV which in the route will be rotate like following image.... I find AGV is also rotated in your example model...

I have tried only join the path into plane without control point , connect AGV to control point after rotate, But the AGV is still rotated...

Is there any way to rotate AGV back?

I think and you confirmed it, the question is answered. Now you ask a different aspect of traveling in AGV paths. How do you keep orientation of vehicles?

Please look at: Any way to keep the same AGV orientation?

If the example version does not work for you, maybe @phil.bobo will help you to get this working in a different version or adds the necessary source code as a text.

Or you look for similar answers here at this site.

Instead of using one path to connect all of the different levels, you may need to use multiple paths; one from each floor to each other floor.

This is described in the Description of the AGV Elevator process flow template too:
