  1. Another Example Model

Splits and Merges

In addition to the Buffer, Constraint, and Conversion nodes we have seen in the past, since this model will have two baking lines feeding into a single packaging line, we will also be using the split and merge nodes.

Both baking lines will pull from the same buffer of ingredient mix, so we will include a split after this buffer to get ingredient mix to both of the baking lines.

Example 1: Name
Example 2: Description
Example 3: Name and Description

[Splits] s1

[Splits] Ingredient_Mix_Split

[Splits] s1: Ingredient Mix Split

We will include a single merge to bring the two baking lines together after the assembly step. The assembled cookies from both baking lines will then be placed into trays, inspected, and packaged on the same line.

The structure of the merge will look like this:

Example 1: Name
Example 2: Description
Example 3: Name and Description

[Merges] m1

[Merges] Baking_Line_Merge

[Merges] m1: Baking Line Merge

The splits and merges can be copy/pasted into the structure pane with the existing components. Now, we can build the full structure of the model.
