Hey @CRETU M

The conveyors aren't making proper connections. This happens when the conveyors are offset a little bit, or a little to far apart. In your case, I think the diameter of the curved conveyors is not exactly the same as the distance between the two straight ones. If you look closely at the connection at point A, there is a small gap on the side skirts of the conveyors, which is an indicator that they are not connected properly. Once I adjusted the size of the conveyors and moved them slightly more into the straight conveyors, the delay went away.
