[QUOTE="powerfarmer, post: 5966162, member: 26080"] I was asked to make something similar before for weighing nuts from a hopper into a stream of ingredient that was continuously flowing past. It would have used a loss in weight controller ( the hopper was on load cells) and the nuts were fed by a variable speed auger. The plan was to use a controller like this [URL]https://www.ricelake.com/en-us/products/product-details/920i-programmable-hmi-weight-indicator-controller#/information[/URL] with an analogue output to control the auger Danfoss variable speed drive and hence the feed . The controller had various programmable outputs. Anyway the cost of the controller was considered too much by the customer so a basic weight indicator was used instead with manual speed control.
