Combiner issue

[badosator]

I have two products in a queue, each connected to the combiner, but product 2 goes into queue 1 and turns into product 1. So I can't combine twelve product 1s and twelve product 2s together.

Hi,

It looks like Product 2 is losing its identity when entering Queue 1 and becomes Product 1.

In FlexSim this usually happens if the item type is being reassigned (e.g. via triggers or queue behavior).

Make sure that Product 1 and Product 2 remain different flowitem types (or at least use labels to distinguish them).

Then configure the Combiner to require 12 units of each product type (either via input ports or component list).

Otherwise, the Combiner will treat all items as the same and won’t be able to combine them correctly.
