Have combiner work with 2 operators at half the time.

Help File.fsmHello,

I have a simple model (attached) where I am trying to show two operators working simultaneously on one combiner. What I am looking for it to do is when both operators are at the combiner they can do the task in half the time. In this example the process time on the combiner is set to 10 minutes. If there is 1 operator working then it would take 10 minutes. If there were 2, then it should take 5 minutes. Is this possible to do?

Thank you.

@Eric R6

I have used process flow logic to accomplish your idea. I have define the number of operator used and item for single operator in "ModelConfigLabel" . I have push the operator into a list and i will acquired based on the number of operator to be used with the combiner (Min 1 & Max 2).

Note:In ModelConfigLabel you can change the value for number of operator.

Attached the model for your reference have a look at it.SupportOperatorProcessingTime.fsm

Thanks
