Hey @Juraj, all your processors have a process time of 8.4 seconds; however, downstream there is a conveyor that is getting backed up.

This item backup is causing processors to wait to release boxes to the next machine, causing an increase in staytime. So, you should either (1) put more operators unloading, (2) decrease operator load and unload times, or (3) make the conveyor longer.
