@Santiago Serrano

Thank you for uploading your model. I created it using two conveyors and decision points. I attached a new model below. Let me know if this is more like what you want to achieve.

Hi @Isaac Litster

the idea is that one operator enter the flowitem in the side of the conveyor.

I used two smaller sized conveyors and and dragged them each to the end of the main conveyor. Then I hid the two conveyors so it looks like there is just the main conveyor. Does this make sense?

If you are able to upload your model, I could take a look at it and try to help you incorporate this into your model.

I'm not sure if I understand correctly. How would you like the merge collector to work in your model?

You have right.

At the begining i had problems with the entrace of flowitmes, when two items enter at the same time, the both stop, in that cases the merge help
