How to set inter-arrival time by type?

distribuciones.fsm
I have 10 different types and that are created with different distributions and that in the same way each circuit has different processing time

FlexSim 19.1.0
statistical distribution
distribuciones.fsm (2.6 MiB)
5 |100000

As for the first part of your question, one option of course would be to create 10 sources and set the inter-arrival time there.

Another option would be to do something like this in Process Flow: multiplesourcedistributions.fsm

In this model there is a token for each item type. The tokens enter a delay before producing items in the model. This delay is as long as the table specifies it should be, so the result is that each item type has a different statistical distribution for how often items should be produced.

I've set the model up so that the items are produced with a "Type" label on them and a different color by type, so you can tell when items of each type are produced.

As for the second part of your question "each circuit has different processing time" - could you explain what you mean there?
