Hi Elisabeth.

You need two command: setanimationvar() and startanimation() which you can find OnEntry trigger from my model here(click button to open the code editor).

But in your attach model, the situation become more complicated(or more simple base on what you want to achieve).

You want the item change its color during moving along the conveyor(Is that right?) If so, you could add "change color" animation at an invisible item which the component is the true 3d appearance.

Hope this model will help you.
