Unloading Utilisation Rate

Hi,

 

I have a model of AGVs with different unloading time dropping off items at Queue 3 and 4. Is there a way to collect the data of the occupancy/utilisation rate of the unloading parking spaces (as marked in the image)? or at least the total time it is occupied in a day so I can calculate it manually. In a workaround attempt, I tried to put a processor before the queue and collect the processor state but I am not able to make the processing time to update dynamically to match the unloading time of the AGVs.

Thank you.

You can use a Statistics Collector to measure the duration of each unload action. In the attached model the collector reacts to tokens entering and exiting the "Unload Item" activity. In the entry event a new row with the token as 'row value' is created. The exit event 'finishes' the row, so that the next time the token is used as row value a new row is created again. In the Triggers tab the current model time is written to a label belonging to the row. When the token exits, this value is used to get the duration.

A Calculated Table sums up the duratians per destination object and divides that value by the total model time to calculate the overall utilization.

Edit: Alternatively and somewhat simpler: Set the state of the queue to some state representing the unload action and use a default state chart. Adjust the state names and which states count as utilized in the State Table that is linked to the chart.
