Use the entry transfer to set the orientation to X-:
I changed it as you said in entry transfer, but the flowitem that rotated at the decison point still returns to before turning as soon as I move on to the next conveyor.
You can either rotate it on the next conveyor using a side transfer (but it flips during the side transfer) or if you wanted it to reverse down the next conveyor you can set the inline transfer angle to be greater than 90. Both examples in the attached model.
Thank you very much.
Is there no other way but to put distance to 0 and turn it back in an instant?
In our system, the flow item rotates on the first conveyor and then transfers to several next conveyors. I'm inquiring because I think it may be too much to do the same every time.
