Operator using crane for moving part

I am having a problem. In my model I want my operator to use crane to move the part after the operation gets over . (Like in a shop floor - Operator and crane both moves with the part to the destination then operator unloads the part and brings empty crane back) .What should be done in my current model ?

Instead of just choosing the center port object to execute the task sequence, instead select Coordinated Task Sequence Example 2 from the drop down. Have the dispatcher be the second center port object of the processor, and have the two out port objects of the dispatcher be the crane and the operator in that order. Then in the Coordinated Task Sequence Code, change line 24 to be the centerobject(current,2) instead of 1. (The dispatcher.)

Here is your example reuploaded.

You might also want to look into using Process Flow for intricate task sequences as well. Process Flow gives you direct control of the tasks of task executers, without the overhead of having to code them.

Thank you @Sam Stubbs.

The crane do not come back with the operator at same time.

The crane start to move after call message from the processor.

How can I control it?

Hi david. You can select "Travel to an Object" in unload trigger of crane. And using an object to guide the crane back to the point.

You can see the attach model.

Hi Sam ,

Thanks for your reply but I am facing a problem. If I am reducing the crane speed(Gantry , hoist, Trolley) the logic is not at all working.

Is there any other way we can do this.
