Is it possible to have a batch with a non-fixed batch size?

The process I am modeling involves synthesizers that can process up to 96 items at a time. If an order has 96 items, I want those to stay together as a batch. But if an order has only 10 items and a second order has 20 and a third has 40, I want to batch all of them together. I do not need 96 items in each batch, but the closer to 96 the better. 

Any suggestions about how to go about this?

In Arena, is it possible to create custom distributions?
