How to transport to robot in separator items individually in FlexSim

I would like to share the current progress of my simulation.

 

  • Source 1: Queue for generating "Thing" (type: FlowItem)

  • Source 2: Queue for generating "Panel" (type: FlowItem)

  • Left side of the conveyor:

    • Placed Combiners 1, 2, and 3
    • Panels are generated from Source 2 onto Combiners 1, 2, and 3
    • When Thing is placed on top of a Panel, it gets "packed"
    • Then the packed item flows to the right
  • Right side of the conveyor:

    • A Separator is placed
    • The incoming packed Panel + Thing is "unpacked" by the Separator
    • The robot picks up the Mono and places it into a queue
    • The Panel is moved to the lower conveyor (not picked up by the robot)

This is the mechanism I have built so far, but I’m not fully confident whether this setup is appropriate from a simulation perspective.

 

Also, in step 5, after unpacking with the Separator, I want the robot to transport only the Thing, while the Panel should be transported without using the robot. However, currently the robot picks up and transports both items.

I would like to know if it’s possible to configure the robot to pick up only the Mono and ignore the Panel.

 

 

I would appreciate it if you could explain...

The panels are already placed on the conveyor—about three of them.
So I think it's different from generating them from a source.
