Help with truck travels during the day

Hello,

I need help in truck travels.

My case is based on tokens are acumulated in a queue and I want to move them from one queue to another by truck twice a day at 7am and 8am. With that travels I want to take advantage of the travels and load another items from a queue next to the queue I unload the other items refered before to unloaded in another queue next to the queue that I loaded the tokens refered before (also twiece a day)

I dont achieve doing it twice a day, only it does it once. I attach my model in case someone can help me.

Hello Unax,

There are two things you need to change. The first is the source, which needs to create a token at 7 and at 8.

Even with that, you are only opening the port with ProcessFlow, not creating the movement. If the truck is in use when the port opens, it will not do the movement.

The truck has a load and unload time for each box. You have a 15-minute load time, which means it takes a lot more than 60 minutes to load all the boxes. Therefore, the truck only does one

movement.

Thanks.

Hello @Nil Ns

I understood it perfectly thanks. Now I have another doubt you could help me. If you open my model you will see that the truck moves the items from one pavillion to another. I need that the truck when goes loaded from one pavillion to another and gets unloaded, to be another time loaded with other type of items in the pavillion that was tha unloading done. In that way the travels are worther.

I don't know if you will could understand what I want to say.

Thanks
