set of machines feeding set of machines

[ FlexSim 25.0.0 ]

i have a system with two sets of machines , the first set contains 10 machines with a processing time of 40min ( they don't start at the same time to prevent having 10 outputs at the same time , there's is time gap of 4 MIN between the starting time of each machine ) each of these identical machines gives cans as an out put ( a can each 40 min) , these machines feed the second set which contains 5 identical machines , each of them need 5 cans from the first set to start working , each of these machines give a can each 15 min as an output , the 5 cans of the input get consumed in one hour , which means 5 cans of input xill give us 4 cans in the output , there's no condition on what machines from set 1 should feed a specific machines from set 2 , ( the first ten mahines can feed any of the second five machines according to availability) , my question is , how can i setup that ? and how can i setup the system in way that feeding the second set of machines in order ( the first five cans coming from the 1st set go to the first machines of the 2nd set , the second five cans go to the second machine...etc)

Hi @

,

It looks like this question may be part of a homework assignment or academic project. The professors who assign simulation modeling exercises using FlexSim expect that the academic integrity of their assignments will be maintained. In addition, we are supportive of Honor Codes or Pledges that regulate the behavior surrounding academic assignments.

I recommend reading our best practices page on the subject, which includes some resources that you should find helpful as you use FlexSim for academic purposes. I also highly recommend Dr. Allen Greenwood's FlexSim Primer, which was written specifically for students and professors.
