Flowitem cylinder in different position when creating

Hey guys,

In the attached picture you can see that my cylinder that comes from a source directly is in a vertical position. But I would like to have it in a horizontal position.

How is it possible to do this ? In the flowitem or directly somewhere in the triggers?
I tried doing it with the OnRest trigger of the Conveyor but it did not help anything.

Can someone help me?
Thank you in advance.

Please look in the EntryTransfer of the Conveyor. There you find the Item Orientation. You can set the direction forward and up.

If you like to change the orientation on the conveyor, you can use a photoeye, a decision point or a station. On Block or On Clear (On Arrival or On Continue) is the picklist option Rotate Item. The Rotation Axis is left and the angle of 90 degrees, the Pivot Point is center and Rotate: Over Convey Time or Over Convey Distance can get an value of zero.

@Jörg Vogel In the attached picture you can see the same problem in the Combiner.

Is there any option to do this with the combiner or maybe also with the Separator?122.png
