4.1 Rotary Drum Positioning/Sensor Settings
A photo sensor maintains the registration of the drum. The drum can be repositioned by either moving
the photo eye or the sensor gap plate. Refer to drawings 4.2 to reposition the drum via the sensor gap
plate. Refer to drawing 4.1 to reposition the drum via the photo sensor.
4.2 Accumulating Funnel Adjustments
The accumulator funnel holds the product above the drum so that product is not dropping onto
the drum while previous product is being weighed or the drum is in motion. The doors of the
drum should close at the same time without “banging”. Refer to drawings 4.3 for door speed
adjustments and door position adjustments. Refer to drawing 4.4 for door position setting.
Air pressure: air pressure and speed controls must be set so that the air is sufficient to close and
open the doors and also sufficient to keep the doors closed when product is resting on the doors.
