How do I combine many items into one with only one input.

what I want to simulate is the function of a pressing machine. 800 items come and are pressed to make one item upon exit. It doesn't necessarily have to be a combiner. I have attached a sample model here. Sample Model.fsm

@Akila_indeewara_kulathunga Wad, you have to collect them. This can do a queue. When a batch gets collected you set a label on a single item that is leaving the queue through a port to a processor and all other items are going into a sink at a different output port. A combiner in join mode doesn’t do anything different then that.
