Counting and collating products accurately at high speed

Abstract

Presents a solution for counting and collating light food products at high speed. Describes a project to design and build a replacement machine within the same space which would dramatically reduce lost product and product undercount and increase each line throughout by 50 per cent. Demonstrates how mechanical and electronic skills can be combined to produce a simple and elegant solution.
