I have a question about ARENA: is it possible to use different times in the same resource? For example, I have 3 types of trucks arriving and they have to be weighed on the same scale. Truck A is weighed in 03 minutes, truck B is weighed in 05 minutes and truck C is weighed in 7 minutes. After weighing, they are released and the process is closed. So, how to build this model in ARENA? Could you help me? Thank you in advance.
Marcelo, The processing times can be stated to be read from an attribute. The value of the attribute, in your case, will be 3, or 5 or 7, which can be assigned using an ASSIGN block, or if you are using sequences, you can assign a new value in the processing time attribute at every step of the sequence. If the truck type does not change in your simulation, you can make the assignment immediately after the entity is created. In the process time parameter of remember to adjust the units to minutes, because the attribute has a numerical value, but it does not store a dimension (minutes, seconds, hours, days).
Hello I have to do my thesis in a production line through the arena software and I have one question.The production line is about organic solar cells , as an entity enters one roll which through processes is cut into smaller pieces.How can I do this through arena??
I need to send the same batch to two different Station at the same time. I tried to use the clone module, but it makes my temporary batch turn into permanent batch. How do I do that?
Sir , i want to discuss one thing that i have made a model from quarry to crusher fo cement plant, now willing to add some automations regarding production increase or decrease and subsequently add or removal of trucks according to the situation. In this regard i want some suggestions from you
Sir, in my module using 8 trucks for three different loading sites, am using constant sequence in arrival module, how can i arrange or specify same trucks for one side i mean (1,2,3) for ist loading side and other as well throughout the shift time, or any other way to make it more convenient or close to reality.
@@dralbertomarquez a little complications in my model i have defined types of truck but still confused that which place should be the best suited for assignation. If you available then can i share my model file with you
Hello how are you I have a model where in between two processes workers have to manually load the machines in process 2 from process 1 how best can I solve that
The assignment is by value. The number of the sequences are 1 and 2 and that works perfectly. That is not a problem. I made a mistake though. Sequence #2 is station 3, station 2 and then station 1. That doesn't work because the entity departs at the end of station 3.
@@dralbertomarquez If you put a different image for each entity and put only one entity at most for each type, you will see that it does not follow the sequence that you configured

I am sorry, I did not see your questions before. As Victor suggests you can use the SEPARATE block to create several copies of the entity. There are other ways if you have more sophisticated modeling needs, but always try the simplest first.

There are blocks that you can use to batch or clone or other similar options. Explore the system. You will learn more that way.

What is your concrete question (no pun intended)
Sir, in my module using 8 trucks for three different loading sites, am using constant sequence in arrival module, how can i arrange or specify same trucks for one side i mean (1,2,3) for ist loading side and other as well throughout the shift time, or any other way to make it more convenient or close to reality.
Define 2 truck types and assign them 2 different distances, one distance to each one.

Your description is not clear enough for me.
the sequence is not correctly configured, you must put in the assign the same name that you use in the sequence data module
The assignment is by value. The number of the sequences are 1 and 2 and that works perfectly. That is not a problem. I made a mistake though. Sequence #2 is station 3, station 2 and then station 1. That doesn't work because the entity departs at the end of station 3.

El público principal habla inglés. Te cuesta trabajo en inglés?
@@dralbertomarquez Está bien, solo que la mayoría de tutoriales de Arena están en inglés.

Hi Marios, did you try some Batch/Separate combination?
I am sorry, I did not see your questions before. As Victor suggests you can use the SEPARATE block to create several copies of the entity. There are other ways if you have more sophisticated modeling needs, but always try the simplest first.
