Custom lunch break time

[ FlexSim 21.2.3 ]

Hi, I need to create different stops in the production line which have a variable time, such as lunch. I have tried with time table but this just defined constant times. Is there another way to create a stop in the activity of the resources with a variable time (distribution)?

Hello @Claudia P3,

One way to do this would be to use the MTBF/MTTR tool. That would allow you to set a distribution for the start time and duration of "failure time," which would be equivalent to your "lunch time." You can see here for more information on using the MTBF/MTTR tool. I hope this helps!

Thanks! I hadn't thought of that option.
