Sorting at Queue Based on Type of Items

I have 3 types of items arrive at Queue1 by an operator (10 of each Type).

Now, I would like the same operator to move Type1 items (10) from Queue1 to Machine1. Then Type2 items (10) move to Machine2 by same operator and finally Type3 items (10) to be moved to Machine3 by same operator respectively. What is the best way to carry out this operation?

Does the operator move them one at a time or in a batch of 10? You can try using the standard 3D logic by setting the Transporter capacity and choosing the breakTo condition.

If that doesn't work then you can push items to lists and use process flows to create the tasks for the operators.
