I am not going to tell you because I don't know... the manufacturers are not going to tell you because they don't want anyone to know. The factory reps only know so much ... I think there are two guys in Japan who know... Mr. Ishida and Mr. Yamato

If you propose to make one of these from a PLC, I would say you're gonna hafta figure it out yourself. I don't mean that to be a wise guy, but I think that's pretty much how it is. I also think that is what attracts guys like you to this stuff anyway, isn't it? You like figuring things out and making machines do what you want them to do.

It would be sort of like any other customer would tell you. They know what they want the machinery to do. It is up to you to figure out how to do it... You'd have to figure out your own algorithm

In the end, if your machine is going to be competitive, it is going to have to control the feeding conveyors, the buckets, and the packaging machine and weigh to 0.1 gram at 150 packages a minute.. and do it in about the least conducive environment possible. Vibrations, chemicals, water And to be honest... there are lots of products weighed at much slower speeds

If you have a reason beyond curiosity to be interested in doing this, please PM me. I would be interested to know what you're up to
