3.23 Adding transportation processes
To improve the level of detail of our system it would be great to add a transport process
between the steel wire manufacturing process and the paperclip bending process. A 20
tonne truck will be appropriate for this model.
58. Locate a Truck n the hierarchy and use the drag and drop feature to add the truck
process to the plan.
3.24 Process parameters
Transportation processes are a good example of parameterized processes. In the truck
process you can define for example the transport distance, the payload or the percentage
of distance covered on various types of roads. For now we don´t want to go deeper into
parameter variation and can leave these settings as they are. The transport distance is set
to be 100 km.
