I suspect you're putting the conveyor into an unsupported state by allowing entries before there is space on the conveyor. If you change it to use the length of the item it seems to behave:

@Owen_liaw H,

By spacing out the items entering the conveyor as @Jason Lightfoot explained, the combiner's exit port is never blocked. This allows your model to run the full 24 hours.
