Workflow of automatic batching system:
1. The weighing hopper is equipped with a weighing sensor and connected to the industrial computer for input. This system is designed to manually check the zero position of each weighing hopper during shutdown, and monitor whether the weighing hopper returns to the zero position normally; Automatic zero detection during continuous batching operation can correct the zero position changes of the weighing hopper, ensuring measurement accuracy.
2. After the operator clicks on the ingredient operation process, the PLC controls the pneumatic valve and screw for material feeding to open. The material is slowly added to the weighing hopper, and the computer monitors the signal transmitted by the weighing sensor in real time to compare it with the target value set by the formula. When the set formula target value is reached, the PLC control output is disconnected, and the pneumatic valve and screw for material feeding are closed. After stabilization, the total weight of the weighing hopper and the added material is measured, and this value is used as the zero position before the second material feeding.
3. Immediately begin the feeding process of the second material, repeating until the second and third materials are fully fed.
4. When the feeding process is completed and all pre-set feeding conditions are met, the feeding process begins. The pneumatic valve for discharging is opened, and the mixture flows out naturally under the action of gravity. The system monitors the signal transmitted by the measuring sensor of the weighing hopper in real time. When it detects that the total weight of the weighing hopper has returned to the initial zero position, the discharge valve closes, the discharge process ends, and the mixing process enters.
5. The operator can pre-set the sequence of each feeding opening.
6. The system can record the tank number during seed transportation, the actual feeding amount of each raw material, the deviation from the target value set in the formula, the start and end time and time of feeding, as well as the start and end time and time of discharging and other operational data. Through the application program on the upper computer, it is possible to query and print the raw data and statistical reports of the system's operation.
7. The batching system unit mainly consists of a multi head screw feeder, arch breaking device, conveyor line, feeding bin, lifting measuring scale, dust removal device, steel platform, elevator, and control system.
The workflow of the ingredient system is to manually lift the materials to the platform using a hoist; Manually place materials into corresponding silos; Set formula - manually place the turnover bucket at the entrance of the conveyor line - position the turnover bucket - feed the material into the turnover bucket by the feeder; The measuring scale is automatically transported by the conveyor to the next unit for repeated batching - the turnover bucket is automatically transported to the outlet, and the identification card is manually collected and placed.
