Move 3 flowitems using transporter at once

Hello everyone. I have a problem that I need help to solve it.

In the model, there is one transporter that takes flowitems from one of the queues (5 and 6) and transport them to the processor. The result is that the transporter accept only one item. How can I make the transporter to take 3 items at once and transport them to the processor from one of the queues. We use an ItemList to make the connections between the queues and the processor.


Thanks for the help in advance.

Make sure that both the maximum content of the processor as well as the capacity of the transporter are set to 3. It should then move up to three items simultaneouly if available.
