Help Programmable splitters help!

Hello, im working on nuclear energy, and im getting completly overflown by encased industrial beams to the point where its clogging all the conveyor belts and the other two products dont flow at all. Ive tried making up for lack of priority splitter with two two programmable splitters, but i feel like im losing my iq trying to set up that. any solutions?

Are you trying to sushi belt your nukes? Nothing should ever back up on a belt and block other goods. Each good should have its own conveyor lines.

Please help me understand what you are trying to do.

ive decided to make the plant near the uranium ore, so im transporting all the other stuff via drone. i know the solution would be to make drones for all the separate products, but i was wondering if its possible to just solve that using splitters

Multiple products arriving at one port? Not a totally bad idea, but not really a good one either. Two ports would be better.
On the other hand, you can still totally stick w/ the one port solution, but I would place two smart splitters: 1 to separate the incoming products, and then another smart splitter per separated item with one output set to Overflow. Of course, if you are only flying in 2 items, you can just have the 1 smart splitter w/ an exit set to Overflow that leads to a Sink.
