How Simio manage the simultaneous event??Any principle??

Maybe we can use a Search step to find the entity in B's station, target at it then transfer it...

please attach a model. so that people here can help..

Hi, Shuai, why you intend to hide your name ? It's unbelievable...

thanks, Hugo

Hi, Dave from the picture it tells us we could combine entities from different routes( more than 2 ) into 1 entity. and the batch quantity of each route can vary.... so for example, we can get 1A,2B,3C,1D,etc..............and combine into 1 X and the batch quantity can also use Expression, not necessarily a constant. the quantity of combing routes can be changed if you pull the black rectangel below.... Sometimes we don't want "box in box" concept, we only need to batching different quantities of entity type into 1. and then separate at some point just as when they are batched together... current construct of Cominer can only bacth two routes, due to its parent/member logic..

A suggestion to improve the combiner design. I find if we want to combiner entity from diffrent routes together, it is troublesome, Have you ever think of similar design Extendsim does? (As attached)..

I would like to see if there is good sample of robots application with simio. this is important for auto industry...

Kool stuff

It's great. it save us a lot of time to assign long path name

what is your SKYPE Id?

Any example you refer that works like a charm?? ^-^

good job. Glen.

Entity includes Vehicle Object class, ModelEntity does not.... DefaultEntity is a default ModelEntity instance... Please correct me if not right...

how to create ssfx??

You can use sequence table for the different entities. and store the individual processing time in the table. and refer to it.

yes, I am also interested in this. especially when we do the dynamic selection of routing in the sequence table. say if C is busy, then goto D.

can we use random numbers in the changeover matrix?

Dear joaquin, that's very useful, thank you!

I suggest to integrate the Crane lib into Commercial Design & Team Edition, while not for Education, Express Edition.

I second this...

Thank you , Dan. --------------------- Jeff

Jdoran, I have the same love-and-hate feeling towards Simio, I get a lot of user feeback from chinese community, some comments are really disappointing and let many people doubt simio’s capabilities. Many guys like you had quite bad experience starting using Simio, they don’t think Simio is so easy to grasp,not so intuitive and have many obstacles to solve the “unreasonable” demands, Lots of people tell me that tools like flexsim, automod, or even Plant Simulation rules( being the mostly used tool in china,especially academic worlds., that Simio is too crude.. But after two years of learning and modeling, I really begin to find the real value of a object-oriented process-driven tool like simio, it’s really efficient and the power is only limited to your imagination, But during modeling, I do bump into many unpleasant experiences like yours, ex.bugs, strange crash, slow opening and execution of large models. But thanks to god and thanks to SIMIO TEAMs, They input a lot of effort into customer feedback and I have confidence ,in a few years , I will proudly say, Simio RULES now  The good thing of being a reseller is that I can get a great deal of request and feedback for simio to grow..!

Hello.How is the time unit in Simio related to real time? And what is speed factor?
