The reason is that the conveyor only presents the item at the end of the conveyor to the pulling queues, whereas a queue allows any of its contained items to enter any queue at the same time.
So when an item of type 37444 arrives at the end of the conveyor it does not match any of the queue Types. Later the batch timeout occurs at 13120 secs and queue293 releases its type 37537 items. At that point you need to adjust your pull logic to allow it to take a new type and have it fire by opening the input of the queue (even though it is open already - telling it to open will reevaluate the pull).
well i do understand what you mean,but why is that i will have to adjust the pull logic? as you could see the pull logic says whenever the sorting lane is empty,anything could enter the lane,only when it gets filled up by 1 pc then the piece belonging to that item type should enter and moreover you could see that the exit transfer of the converyor has the logic of sending output to anyone.what is that I will have to adjust in the model to solve the problem.Please note I am considering the subnodes.length property.
When I chose to trigger the pull re-evaluation your logic did not allow the item to enter since it was triggered by the last item leaving which is a usual technique. Your code tests for the content being <1 which will never be the case as the pull is evaluated while the exiting item is still in the queue.
ok so what should I do to solve the problem, here the input from the que could enter into any of the available lanes(18 lanes),once an item enters, the lane takes its value and is reserved for that particular item until it reaches the quantity as 5,once it reaches the quantity as 5 and is send to the machine if machine is not occupied ,the lane takes the value of 6th item entering and is reserved for that type until it reaches the max limit of the lane which is 10.
