3.1 Material Flow Planning - route planning

To plan and create the routes, go to the Create routes submodule. 

In the route editor, you will find the routes that have already been created.

• "Trayleryard_GoodsIn" for truck delivery to the goods receiving area
• "RouteStation Linefeed" for belt supply from the "High-bay Storage" via the route train stations
• "RouteStation_Pre Assembly_Suma" for the supply of the pre-assembly and the supermarket from the High-bay Storage
• "Empties" and "Empties_HighRackbay" for empties disposal
• "Supermarket Linefeed" for line supply out of the supermarket

Your task is to create the missing route for the assembly line supply from pre-assembly.

To do this, create a new route with an appropriate name. Select the "Stand-up tug" tractor type and the "Tugger train driver" worker type for this route. The cockpit from the pre-assembly is installed at "Station_08_ML". Consequently, it is sufficient for the route to travel exclusively to the associated stop point. The stopping point of the last pre-assembly area "PA-Cockpit_06_ML" serves as the starting point. Please note that the route must end at the starting point. Take into account the one-way streets when planning your route and make sure that the route train does not have to make a U-turn (turn around) in the narrow places around the pre-assembly.

A possible solution is shown in the screenshot.
