Hello, I have one source that generates an item and then it passes through a Processor then a conveyor at this conveyor the item should be split by a 50% into two types and then transported into 2 conveyors and after each there is a processor can you help me?

Add a descision point or photoeye and you can assign a label (e.g. typically Type).
A value can be a statistical value by duniform(1,2) or a ratio by
current.stats.input.value%2+1
You can then send upon this label value any item to a different exit transfer node or a different decision point at a conveyor branch.
This is a function of a trigger like on Arrival by Send Item By Case.
Please read in manual Creating Conveyor Logic.
thank you so much Mr @Joerg Vogel for your answer. But all I want is to split the entity after being processed into two item types on 2 different conveyors each conveyor go to a different process, i tried to use the trigger on exit on the first processor and split them by percentage into 2 itemtypes and the next processors pull a distinct itemtype but it doesn’t work
Student tip: At the first processors position along the conveyor add a decision point and use that to either move a contained object from its container (packing in a combiner or at creation) to the processor, or create a copy an move it into the processor. If the processor is busy then stop the item and wait until it's empty (eg. using a process flow).
I think you go better with a queue between two conveyor segments. In this queue you can create a copy of your item and let them both resume on 2nd segment. You can probably hide the queue shape.
Instead of a queue you can use a separator object to split your item. Process time can you set to zero.Conveyor_split_by_separator.fsm
Edit by trigger code: create item copy and move it by Entry Transfer into Conveyor
