📦 Parcel Sorter: Chute Blocking, Recirculation and Throughput (2D)

Top view of a loop sorter with 48 carriers, an induction point and eight chutes that are emptied by operators at a random pace. Set the belt speed, the induction fill rate, the share of parcels for the hot chute, the chute buffer and the emptying rate and watch full chutes send parcels round the loop again. The M/M/1/K blocking formula, Little law, the belt capacity and parcel conservation are checked numerically, with four in-page numerical checks.
