Foreign Object Sorting Conveyor Device for Soil / Model Production Example by Kyoritsu Model
Case study of a model for a foreign object sorting conveyor device within soil! Foreign object sorting operation by reversing the conveyor.
**Overview of Model Production** At the request of a major construction manufacturer, we created a model of a conveyor that sorts foreign objects from soil. It is designed to visualize the processes of transporting soil and sorting and distributing foreign objects. **Actual Operation** 1. The collected soil is transported from Screw Conveyor 1 to Conveyor 2. 2. A sensor α installed on the conveyor sorts foreign objects from the soil transported to Conveyor 2 (in reality, foreign object pellets are mixed into Conveyor 2). 3. The sorted soil is transported to Inverted Conveyor 3 for distribution. 4. Foreign objects are collected by a magnet as they fall into the hopper at the front. **Behind the Scenes of Production** We faced significant challenges in expressing the sorting of pellets and adjusting the timing for the distribution of foreign objects using the inverted conveyor. Ultimately, we embedded a metal core in the foreign object pellets to be detected by the metal currency sensor α, and we adjusted the rotation speed and direction control timing of Conveyors 2 and 3 through trial and error. We also struggled to prevent pellet jams and stagnation at each stage. ◆ Right now, we are offering a free digest version of our catalog featuring examples of model production! *Available for download below.*
