milthonchambi Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 This model is for a simulation of waste haulage. The model has two types of trucks. One big and one small running to different speeds through the same path. Because of the size of the trucks (capacity), the big truck is going to have more delay time in the resource compared to the small one. This is cyclical process where the truck is loaded, then the truck transport the load and last the truck unload and return to the resource to be loaded again. In the model I am assuming that the entities are the loads. The entity requests any truck available coming after release the load. Then, any truck (big or small) take the load to the unloading area. Now, the time this entity is going to use the resource (loader) depends on the type of the truck, so this entity is going to take more time in the resource area in a big truck. how could I make this simulation in Simio? is it possible to have resources with different time depending on the entity? I was using other software with no success so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsturrock Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 use a similar technique that was discussed here: http://www.simio.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=380&p=5393 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
