Dashboard for a fixed time axis

Hello everyone.

Am using a combiner to pack 2 different types of items on a cart. Using Dashboards i want to be able to calculate for 24 hours, the number of carts and the number of items for every type that was paked per cart and per hour (return to the top of the line for each hour). Do you have any idea what function should I use to calculate this please ?

Thank you in advance.

This can be done using a Process Flow and a Statistics Collector. If you post a model, I can configure the objects you need.

Here is the chart I made:

This chart shows the average number of items of a certain type on each cart. The average is recorded for each hour.

Here is the model. I added a process flow that does the math. The first batch counts how many of each type were on each cart. The second gets the average of those two values. The batches are manually released each hour, so the average includes only data from the previous hour.

The Statistics Collector just reads the tokens that exit the second batch, and reports the values.

Hi Jordan! Thank you very mach for your answer.. Trying to copy the same work on another model (attached), my model stop running after 1 hour. Could you tell me what's wrong with the flox process please ?

In the flow process you've fixed the Batch Quantity to 10000, could you tell the reason please ?

Thank you very mach in advance.

I made some changes to your model. First, I removed the list. I had it my model, but I now see that it was a bad idea. Second, I updated the batch settings, so that when the batch is released, it is not considered failed.
