Need help creating 6 trailers pulled by tugger ...

[ FlexSim 16.2.2 ]

1st tugger has a longer tow bar then the other remaining 6. I need to dock up against transfer system that rolls 6 pallets off and onto each dolly at same time

You can insert the tow bar as a loaded item, too. then your train consists of the taskexecuter and 7 pulled items. The loading is done by an moveobject task. The container objects are the pallets and not the taskexecuter anymore. You can use in the 3D model the OnLoad Trigger of the taskexecuter to move the items to the dollies, too.

Trying to drive into an Auto Load system we are developing to study timing ...we actual have 16 tugger dolly trains

[daniel_blancett]

Once the dolly train in position, then all 6-pallets load onto train same time ...Tugger train then drives to deliver while next train pulls in to do same thing again
