How I can perform batching in a conveyor

Hello, I attached a image of the exercise

I would like to perform batching in the conveyor. I am trying to get 7 cylinders in the conveyor before they go through the next processor. I would to know if it possible using conveyors instead of using a queue and performing batching there.

Hi @Frank Andres OR,

I'm following up on our unresolved questions and found this one. Did @Isaac Litster's example help you in solving your own problem? If so, can you share your solution as an Answer to your own question?

If you're still trying to solve this problem, as Isaac mentioned, your model file would be most helpful in providing support for your problem. Is that something you can provide?

If you're concerned with sharing your model file publicly, you could instead start a new, private question. Private questions are visible only to our main office staff, so they're a good way to get help with issues in confidential models.

Thanks @Isaac Litster it was very helpful. I have performed batching in the conveyor (12 cylinders), but I want to know if it possible that each cylinder could be at single processor, similar as a batching process. I attached an image of the excercisescreenshot-3.png

Hi @Frank Andres OR,

Do you think you could upload your model for me so I can understand your question a little clearer?

Hi, @Isaac Litster, the example you provided me helped me. I couldn´t replied you before and actually is not necessary to upload the model. In the future, if I have a question related to conveyors, I will post it.

Thanks
