Question

I am looking to improve how efficiently a warehouse operates and want to try using digital twin technology for this. I would appreciate your thoughts on which objects in the warehouse would be best to model using FlexSim.

I am building a digital model of how things work in the warehouse, using around 15 to 30 objects like Source, Queue, Processor, Rack, and Sink. I want to keep it simple but still accurate.

My model just finish building but is over 30 objects, which objects in my provided screenshot can be removed to make it max 30 objects in my model?
