Hi all,
I am working with TI.
I was told to get a utilization percentage. I have wood coming from a dryer, and when there are open spots on this conveyor, a refeeder will put wood in those open spots and go down the conveyor.
I was told to get a utilization percentage. like are we using 50% of available space on the conveyor? 75%?
I have switches available on the conveyor (LS's, maybe others) that will let me count how much wood is on the conveyor. I can also find out how much wood comes from the refeeder with a certain coil that turns on for each piece of wood.
I was thinking of using a bit shift register in order to look at how much space we have available.
Anything helps. I know this isn't very specific. I'm very new to this and that's kind of why it isn't specific.
