Any one have any code for indexing two conveyors to feed one
I have two conveyors side by side feeding one conveyor using a Y conveyor.
Of course the problem is when two packages reach the Y at the same time
the jam each other. I have a photo eye located at the start of each Y side
and one on the Y single leg. I am trying to determine when package gets there first, hold
the second conveyor till the package off the first conveyor passes the photo eye in the
Single section of the Y, then release one from the second conveyor while holding the
first conveyor and basically indexing back and forth.
Any code or detailed ideas would be helpful.
