build sequence after 2 conveyors

Hi community,

I need to model an assembly line. The items transported on conveyors. The sequence of the items is imported -> different types = different assembly time in the stations and different material flow.

The material flow starts on one conveyor in the original sequence. After that I have 2 conveyors with different assembly time,... -> at a turntable/crossing these two conveyors are joining to one. At this crossing I need the original sequence.

I attached a test model. I solved this problem with motors at a small conveyor and labels on the items and on a point. When the label on item is equal to the counter the item can continue, otherwise the motor stops and the other item on conveyor 2 resume.

I think there should be a smarter solussion. Can anyone please check this.

Kind regards

Robert

Hi @Rob, I´m not sure if this is easier for you. But I solved it in PF with a List and a Zone.
