how to simulate conveyor transplanter easier?

i always need simulate many conveyor transplaners in a complicated conveyor-scene.but as far as i konw flexsim doesn.t have this object, i wonder to know if flexsim has interest to developing this object like other simulation software such as Plant simulation. or is there a quick way to doing this?

@Sha L2, as I remember, there has been a creation support for legacy conveyors to switch between straight and curved conveyors while drag and draw them in a workspace by pressing a keyboard key. It was not transfered to conveyor module though.

Can you provide a link to a video of the conveyor behavior? You should be able to customize and combine existing objects to create the functionality.

Do you mean a cross-transfer? Look at the side transfer properties - there you'll see options to delay and lift the item.
