Is there a method to measure transporter distance covered ? Is there a sample model I can take as reference(As I am facing a lot of errors)?
Hi I'm an undergraduate working on a simple warehousing simulation on Anylogic. I was able to extract the picking time for 1000 random storage runs. I am looking to extract the distance covered by the forklift/AGV each pick but how do I measure that?
The program itself is a simple DEM based on a statechart for storage and picking flow for a pallet in a pallet warehouse using forklift. I want to know what methods are available to measure the distance covered by the forklift in each pick run. I would like it if we can assign the data to a data set so I can extract it into an excel file. I have multiple warehousing layouts to run the program on.
At the end of simulation you can add the travelled distance to whatever statistic or output you want. There is a section on the official documentation Transporter API that is specifically called Distance. You can find there functions to calculate distance.
