Hi there,
I am currently working on a layout/simulation where I have several turntables which are placed beside each other, like in this picture:
The problem that I have is that some of the turntables stop working after on product went through. No matter what I do or set in the routing rules.
Has anyone had some similiar problems and can help me?
Thank a lot!
Best regards,
Patrick
Hi, I made a similar layout like the picture you attached for testing.
As a result of the test, I confirmed that the turntable does not stop and works normally.
Hello. You could fix the issue by connecting very short straight conveyors between two consecutive Turntable Conveyors (and for example hide the support legs, belt and rollers of the straight conveyors).
Turntable Conveyor (and Shuttle and Lift conveyors) are built using a behaviour called Component Flow Proxy, that allows connecting container (=conveyor path) to different output ports of the component. The script inside these components needs the information of containers (=conveyor paths) connected to their output ports, and this information is not available when the other component connected to an output port does not have component container with static internal connection between in-interface and conveyor path.
Placing a 1mm long conveyor between two turntables causes a component container to be always available (with a static connection between in-interface and container). I hope this helps.
Hi there,
thank you both for your quick responses!
I will try the method with adding short normal conveyors between, even though I wanted to avoid it 
but I had the suspicion that it might be caused by directly connecting them. At least if you connect more then two, like in my case connecting 4 turntables together.
