No restrictions on the station sizes
The important features are that there are no size restrictions on the stations and the number of open stations is set by the optimising parameters to set the maximum number of open parts. A typical example where this method is used is where parts are destacked to pallets or baseboards on the floor.
The station sizes set in the Destacking parameters are ignored but other destacking parameters may be used.
Optimising parameter: Destack with station sizes should NOT be checked
In summary:-
- Set up destacking information for each part (Destacking library)
- Set a Part list information box for the Destacking style
- Enter the destacking styles for each part in the Part list (or Part library)
On optimising the program produces a Station summary and Destacking summary which show how the stations are loaded.
Destacking information can also be sent to some saws via Transfer to Saw
