Conveyor

Conveyor.fsmI have a conveyor with several stoppers. A pallet only moves forward after the pallet in front of it reaches the next stopper, meaning the flow items on the conveyor shouldn't move simultaneously. Also, a pallet will stop at all the stoppers for 0.5 s when the conveyor is empty The only method I can think of for modeling this is by using processors.

Is there a way to model this using a conveyor instead?
