worker.fsm

i want the operator to processing on the box from one to another while the conveyor still continuously moving (none stop).

Please help out .

thanks

Here's an example using an instanced process flow with the operator as the instance.worker_jl.fsm

You could get the operator to walk alongside the object or in later versions of FlexSim have a kinematic activity move the operator at the same speed.

hi Sir

i add 1 more operator but the operator 2 keep travel across the conveyor . How to keep the second operator travel along the conveyor instead of travel through the conveyor?

thanks

I added a lavel to each operator called yoffset and then use that to adjust the travel to location activity/task.

I add operator 3, and want:

1. the operator 3 only process on the finished item from previous station(which is green color) .

2. the operator 1 and 2 only work in the space between the DP1 and DP2( not venture out of this space)

how can i do that ? please help out sir.new worker 2.fsm

I assumed there are two steps to the process and now cycle the colors from initial brown through,

• red in step1,
• green : step 1 complete
• blue: in step 2
• yellow: step 2 complete

I put them back into a single process flow and list, partitioned the list by DP and added the following labels to the operators:

for use as reference in the generic process flow.

Then I added logic to stop and resume a conveyor motor if the item reaches the endDP before it has completed that step, and resume when that step is complete. The item now has a label for processStep and incompleteAtExit.
