Hello Team,
Type 1 and 2 boxes flow on conveyor system.
Operator should pick the box from conveyor place on processor after process time is finished pick and place box back on conveyor.
Processor 4 only processes Type 1 boxes
Combiner 1 will combine processor 6 and 7 boxes and operator will place back box on conveyor.
Thanks in advance.
Please find attached file for reference.

For an item to exit a conveyor through a transfer that is not the farthest one, it needs to be "send" there.
To have the operator move the box from the conveyor to the processor use the "Use Transport" option on the Exit Transfer.
If the items should wait until they can exit if the processor is not available at the moment, you can uncheck the "Stop at End" option, so the operator can only pickup the item while it is next to the Exit Transfer.
If each item should only be processed once, use labels to denote their status and only send them to the next Exit Transfer if it has not been processed yet.
The combiner will need two input connections. First an item has to enter through port one, then items can follow through other ports as specified in the components list.
In the attached model I demonstrate how to send an item based on its label by sending all type 1 items to processor2.
That and setting labels in the Exit or Process Finish trigger of the processors should be all you need to complete this logic.
