How to pick up pallet with forklift

Hi, I have a model. After depalletizing, the pallet becomes empty and I want a forklift to pick up the empty pallet and drop it to the pathway area #2. I can’t figure it out. I have 2 forklifts in the model. For now I just want to remove empty pallet with 1 forklift. Later, I will feed in full pallet with the second forklift.

When using the Works library, use TransportIn and TransportOut when parts are moving on conveyors, and Feed / Need when you want to use other resources like robots and forklifts.

Now there was a small mistake in Works Process #14. You need to replace the Need command with Transport in command.

If possible, I would recommend using Process Modeling instead of the Works library. In most cases, it is easier and faster to use.

Thank you. The next stage of my process is to remove the bottles from the crate with a robot. I am using a default crate with bottles from Product and Containers. can I split the bottles from the crate, or how can I do it?

I think if you detach boxes from pallet, or bottles from box, the process should be the same.

From what I can see, it will work if you have a bottle and a crate as 2 different parts in the 3D environment. But if you have a “crate” filled with bottles by default as 1 part, I think you can’t split an unknown part “bottle” in the work process.
