What this model is

LEDS track, Converter model — Converters added, output in pallets. The Capper is still the bottleneck (75.4% avail), with Capper_Upper Plow Area at 54% of Capper downtime. Converters don't change where the bottleneck is — the interrupt pattern on the Capper Constraint does.

Questions it answers

  • Ask how the 10:1 / 10:1 conversions flow through or how the Capper's failure modes differ from the Labeler's.

The same topology on the other track

Two Constraints, Three Converters — Bottle to Pallet Conversion runs this structure against constraint-level interrupt data. It reports 54.1% efficiency against 54.3% here — the throughput prediction barely moves. What changes is what the model can tell you about the cause.
