@Xu Z

From your question, I have understood that you want to adjust the conveyor entry location to an exact entry. This can be done by adjusting the conveyor entry transfer to the side of the conveyor as shown in the imageimage-1.png . I have attached the sample model for your reference.7877-entrytransfer-test-new.fsm

Thank you

Hi gilbert，thank you for your reply. yes i can adjust the conveyor entry transfer to the side of the conveyor to realize what I want to do . but i don't think flexsim should behave like this to let users adjust the position everytime, because i just want to let item to strat moving from the head of a conveyor, not an user defined position. i think it is a default requirement. thank you all the same!
