How to solve that the boxes do not remain floating at the conveyor?

I do not want the product to float at the beginning and end of the conveyor.

If you move the Entry Transfer on the conveyor from here:

To here:

Flowitems won't dangle over the edge. Similarly, if you make an out put port from the conveyor to some other object, they won't dangle over the right side of the conveyor either.

Move the transfers with a simple left-click and drag along the conveyor length.

At the end you connect the conveyor with another object. At start place a queue with the max. content of 1. Then the conveyor pulls the item visually out of the queue and you have a place where you can set the items onto.

Showing another case, if the products have different sizes as I can prevent them from floating?

When doing what you tell me, there is no problem at the end of the conveyor, but at the beginning, how can I fix that?
