How to make an accumulator conveyor??

Hi,
I need to do a conveyor which has a normal functioning but also on a message, the conveyor speed changes to zero m/s.

When the conveyor is stopped, the boxes that arrive from another conveyor start to push the boxes on the conveyor are stopped.

The idea at the end is that I have two conveyor, the first with a speed and the second is stopped. When boxes move from one conveyor to another, the boxes start to be pushed by new arrivals boxes at the rate of x cm.

I explain it better with a drawing attachment.

When you reach the conveyor a second message that begins to run at normal speed.

The cycle of stopping and starting the conveyor needs to be done as many times as necessary.

Is to simulate a pressure accumulator conveyor.

I Hoping someone already has done something like this or has any idea how to do.

Hi,

I did a search on this forum and find this thread that I think is similarly to what ask for.

Hi,
I made a "model" which is what I need to do with transport (attached file). It is not just a pusher, it's like using real physical forces between boxes and boxes motionless pusher.

I need the same thing but do it with a conveyor

I did a coveyor with different modules and sensors using the model of the subject "'Push conveyor' possible?".

Just need to solve a small separation of the boxes when they were off the conveyor 2.

The operation can be seen changing table "module" 1.1 of 0-1 to stop or start the conveyor speed

If anyone can improve conveyor, no problem!
