I need to create a simulation where 2 items will accumulate a the end of one conveyor and then transfer in parallel when making the turn. Is this just a seeing that I am not seeing or is it more involved.
Transfer 2 items in parallel (next to each other) on a conveyor?

Hey @Raymond F
What do you mean by make the turn? Do you have a model that I could take a look at?
I put this together really quick. I guess my wording may be strange with the "turn".
What i am trying to accomplish is that I want 2 items from conveyor 1 to be loaded onto the elevator and lift to conveyor 2 but not change orientation but travel on conveyor 2 next to each other.
@Raymond F
Just off the top of my head, I think if you use a combiner and set it at the level of the conveyor, with a Processing time of 0, that could accomplish what you are looking for. You could hide the Combiners Port connections and 3D shape, and it would look pretty good. I'll keep trying to find other solutions as well.
Thanks Braydn, I will play around with that. I was trying this example. Can you foresee any issue with doing it like this?
The search will give you answers by the phrase "side by side".
For example "how can I have mutiple boxes side by side on a conveyor"
