I have a vibratory conveyor that is being fed from another conveyor. The feeding conveyor does not always deposit a consistant flow of "product" onto the vibratory conveyor... sometimes there is very little and sometimes there is a lot. Nothing can really be done about that... just the way it is.
I can weigh the product that is on the vibratory conveyor at all times, and that value is an analog input to a PLC. That is already in place
How can I determine, using the PLC... even a pretty good approximation.... the amount of product being discharged from the vibratory conveyor . The PLC has PID capability (a Micrologix). I imagine this has something to do with integration... I guess I'm asking how to have the PLC do the math,
Thanks
