Support Request About the Project

[Muhammed Emre ERTONGA]

Dears,

I just started using the JaamSim program.

In order to analyze the project I am working on, I want to simulate it first.

However, I am having problems solving some points.

I thought you could help me to solve this problem. Could you please help me?

Below is the general schematic and description of the project.

Explanations;

- Product Feeding = This part is the source and produces a product every 40 seconds.
- Conveyor(1-2-3-5-7-9-11) = These conveyors are the main conveyor.
- Conveyor (4-6-8-10) = On these conveyors, the product is tested for the specified time, and after the test process is over, the products are sent back to the main conveyor.
- Test Stations = There are 4 stations in total, but stations 1,2 and 3 are tested by one operator while the 4th station is tested by a robot.(Test Times are below)

Sample Flow;
For example, when all stations are empty, the product will first follow the following path;
First Product Out of Source = Conveyor 1 --> Conveyor 2 --> Conveyor 3 --> Conveyor 4
Second Outgoing Product from Source = Conveyor 1 --> Conveyor 2 --> Conveyor 3 --> Conveyor 5 --> Conveyor 6 (Because Test Station 1 was full, the product moved from Conveyor 3 to Conveyor 5 and was then routed to Test Station 2.

The operator cannot move to Station 2 until he/she finishes the 72-second process at Station 1. For this reason, if there is a product in the first three stations and no operator, the test cannot be performed until the operator arrives at that station.

Points where I had problems;
1- Which blocks should I use?
2- How do I direct the product to the other station when the station is full?
3- After the products enter the test stations from the main line, how will I send the products from the station to the main conveyor again?
4- How will I condition the operator in the first three stations? In other words, after the operator finishes the process, he will start the test at the other station and if there is no operator even though there is a product in the station, the product will wait there for the time when there is no operator.

I would be very grateful if you could support me on these issues. Thank you for your attention

Have a good days.

Best Regards,
M.Emre ERTONGA

Just giving this a try to model a paint system with multiple layers of paint and getting this error.

JaamSim has detected the following runtime error condition:

class com.jaamsim.ProcessFlow.SimEntity cannot be cast to class com.jaamsim.ProcessFlow.EntContainer (com.jaamsim.ProcessFlow.SimEntity and com.jaamsim.ProcessFlow.EntContainer are in unnamed module of loader 'app')

Time = 68544.000000 seconds

Programmers can find more information by opening the Log Viewer.
The simulation run must be reset to zero simulation time before it can be restarted.
