Conveyor is the space markup shape that graphically defines a conveyor. You simulate how material items are transported by conveyors using the AnyLogic Material Handling Library blocks Convey, ConveyorEnter and ConveyorExit.

Several conveyors can be connected together. Altogether they compose a conveyor network. In the conveyor network, movement is always performed along the shortest conveyor between the origin and the destination nodes.

Conveyor starts with the defined initial speed and accelerates to the defined maximum speed, keeping it until stops.

Unlike many other space markup elements that just define the element's location and size graphically, the conveyor element also provides users with a set of actions, which are used to define additional agent behavior.

Conveyor types
By default the roller conveyor is used, but if required you can set it to be of any available type:

  • Roller - It is an accumulating type of a conveyor. If an agent is stopped on it, the rollers will keep on rolling, bringing all the preceding material items to the stopped one, thus forming a line of agents. The Gap parameter defines how close the material items can be pushed to each other. If the Gap is set to 0, collisions are inevitable.
  • Belt - It is not an accumulating type of a conveyor. If an agent is stopped, the whole conveyor stops to prevent collision of material items. The distance between the items is defined by the Gap parameter.
  • Fixed cell - It is not an accumulating type of a conveyor. The conveyor is a succession of cells of specified size. Agents are placed in the center of the conveyor cell. One conveyor cell can contain only one material item. The Gap parameter defines the distance between the conveyor cells. If an agent is stopped, the whole conveyor stops.
