By marking order lines as Express they will be handled separately and bypass certain operations to speed up an order's production.
There are two main usages:
- Skipping feeding buffers, meaning carrier(s) will bypass buffers and go directly to the next operation. If you want some buffer operations to still be performed even for express carriers, they should be flagged as Express Buffer.
- Prioritizing at station, meaning carrier(s) will be handled before other carriers
Carriers connected to express order lines will automatically skip buffer operations. When an express carrier enters a station the operator will get a message on the terminal to enable faster handling.
Two commands can be used on the loading station to set or unset the express flag on the order line of the carrier in working position
Enables the express flag on the order line for the currently carrier in work position.
