Key Components for Belt Weight Sorting Machine:
- Conveyor Belt:
- Transports the fish through the machine.
- Designed to be food-grade and corrosion-resistant for hygiene.
- Weight Sensor (Load Cell):
- Accurately measures the weight of each fish as it passes through.
- Positioned beneath or integrated into the conveyor belt.
- Control System:
- Processes weight data and determines the appropriate sorting category.
- May include a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or embedded microcontroller for automation.
- Sorting Mechanism:
- Physically separates fish into different categories based on weight.
- Can use pneumatic arms, pushers, or diverter flaps.
- Bins or Chutes:
- Collect fish sorted into specific weight categories.
- Positioned at the end of or along the conveyor belt.
- User Interface:
- Allows operators to set weight ranges and monitor machine performance.
- Typically includes a touchscreen or control panel.
- Hygienic Design:
- Built with stainless steel and designed for easy cleaning to comply with food safety standards.
