Ok, you can change for all of your conveyors in a model the color of the Side Skirt. The Shape is in the directory of the path "[FlexsimProgramDirectory]\modules\Conveyor\shapes". The File is named "SideSkirt.ac". If you change the color in the file and you reload the 3d Media "File > System > Reload Media" then the side skirts can get another color.

Thank you Jorg.....If i need multiple conveyors with multiple colors how i can do that

Unfortunately the visuals of the conveyor are not as flexible at this point as many would like. We do have it in our plans to make improvements to this in a future version. For now, though, you only get one color.

A workaround for a straight conveyor section is to place the side skirts shapes in another object like an basic fixed resource that you place in the conveyor. Because it has nothing to do with the conveyor module you can exchange the color easier. Make the side skirt a bit greater than the original side skirts.
