Your question title is the answer to your question itself. In other words, the best way to handle the variability introduced by different operations, machines, and items is to use a Global Table.

That said, without some kind of example model, I can't really provide a solution for you.

It sounds like you can use item "Types" to determine which "operation" each "processor" should perform on each item. You'll just need to create a table like the example shown below to handle all the logic:

By stepping through each column of the table from left to right for each valve type, you can achieve the correct order of operations and create the associated valve type. Just an idea to get you started. Hope this helps!
