producing 2 products at the same time

The products we produce are processed in pairs. In other words, we can say they are like combined products. However, in the next steps, they are divided into two and 2 different products are produced. Since they are produced at the same time, I multiplied the processing time by 2, but I still cannot reach the product I need to produce daily. I added code to the source. Can you check if it works correctly?

The longest process time in the model is 92s on the first processor (technically it's 108s for the soldering, but because that is split between two processors it's effectively halved). the time it takes the operator at the first station to move the item to the next processor and return to resume production is added to those 92s and results in an overall interval of around 100s per item (or pair). So the model works as expected.
