A conveyor network consists of two or more sections that are connected together to enable part merging, diverting, and recirculating. In such instances, a conveyor may have one or more entry points and one or more exit points. Furthermore, part entry and exit may not always happen at the beginning or end of the conveyor. In ProModel, loads or entities must always enter at the beginning and exit at the end of conveyor networks. To model merging or branching in the middle of the conveyor, break the conveyor into smaller sections.
