How can I change the efficiency of the processor?

How can I input 100% of raw material into a processor and receive the output of 98%?

Since the items that enter the processor need to leave the processor, the best way to accomplish this is to setup a by percentage option in the Send To Port of the processor. This way you can send 98% of the items downstream to the next object, and 2% of the flowitems can be sent to a Sink and destroyed (or elsewhere if they need to be reprocessed). The model would look something like this:

For the processor's Send To Port I selected the Random > By Percentage pick option.

Hope this helps!
