how to reset the item types of multiple items in the middle of production line ?

Hi, thank you in advance for your attention.

I am trying to set a production line composed of a ( source --> processor 1 --> processor 2 --> processor 1 --> queue), the ensemble of flow items is of 3 types and 3 colors already set in the source, the challenge is to reset the types at the processor 2 to define the processing times when they go back to processor 1.

To better describe the problem here is my model.

reseting types.

The aim is to do the following:

source(type:1,2,3)--> processor 1 --> (resetting the types or changing the the type 1 to 4, 2 to 5 and 3 to 6)

--> processor 2 (operation times differ from one type to another)

PS: I would really appreciate the help by avoiding the process flow for I don't know how to work with process flow yet.

Again thank you for the help.

@Hichem

You can solve your issues like followed;

1) You should set another label of reworking like 'reWork' name in source and set the value 1.

1 is used in "send to port" in the processor1 and it is changed to 2 after processor2's reworking.

2) item.Type value is changed to 3++ after reworking in the processor2.

So the items enter to the processor1 and the process time can be changed to anther cycle time according to the item.Type.
