UNCTIONALITY
Previous sections have shown arrangements and connections assuming a “full function” merge from both the left
and right sides of the
Main Line
. However,
ConveyMerge
allows for many options in arrangement and configuration,
all of which are configurable in
EasyRoll
.

With
EasyRoll
, the basic selections for configuring
ConveyMerge
are:
Identify the
Merging Zone
Select whether to use a Left Line Only, Right Line Only, or Both
Identify the discharge module(s) address and zone (upstream or downstream)
Optionally choose an upstream module and zone on any or all of the three lines as a trigger zone to
dynamically change release priority

RIORITY
EasyRoll
provides the ability to adjust which of the merging lines receives priority. The following chart outlines these
choices:
EasyRoll Priority Selection
Description
First Come First Served
The logic monitors the arrival status in each of the zones that discharge in to the
Merge Zone.
The first product that arrives at any of these lines will be allowed
to convey into the
Merge Zone
. When the
Merge Zone
is clear, the next line
that has had a product arrive will be allowed to convey into the
Merge Zone.
Center Line Priority
The
Center Line
will be allowed to release as long as product arrives at the
center line zone sensor prior to the previously released product having not
cleared the
Merge Zone.
When the
Merging Zone
is clear and if there is no
product sensed on the center line zone; then the
Left
and/or
Right Lines
will be
allowed to release if product has arrived at their respective sensors. As long as
no product is arriving on the
Center Line
, if
Left
and
Right
Lines
are enabled,
these will operate as First Come First Served between them.
Left Line Priority
The
Left Line
will be allowed to release as long as product arrives at the
Left
Line’s
most downstream sensor prior to the previously released product having
not cleared the
Merge Zone.
When the
Merging Zone
is clear and if there is no
product sensed on the
Left Line’s
most downstream sensor; then the
Center
and/or
Right Lines
will be allowed to release if product has arrived at their
respective sensors. As long as no product is arriving on the
Left Line
, if the
Right
Line
is enabled, the
Center
and
Right
will operate as First Come First Served
between them.
