Path System

The Path System is part of the realvirtual.io simulation. It provides elements to construct different types of path systems based on and (like AGVs, Power&Free). The demo scene DemoPathsystem_UseCases shows some possible use cases.
In Path Systems of automation systems very often the material flow strategies are very important for throughput and very often simulation models are build for developing and optimizing these strategies. Our library open and extendable and you can implement your own strategies. Please read the section for more information about Path finding strategies.
Elements for building path systems and have Snap Points. Snap points allow objects to be placed exactly next to each other at the appropriate points.
The moves the MUs along a linear path from start to finish.
The moves the MUs on a circular path from start to finish.
The stops the MU on a path for a specified time. It can be extended by additional stations (e.g. to a loading or unloading station).
The catches MUs that are under “physical control” and loads them onto a path.
The is responsible for moving the along the path.
