  AW: Assembly line feeding system
 
Maybe a look into actual GBC designs and their approaches to transportation might prove useful (?). (Ok, it's for LEGO balls instead of plates) (URL) Nachricht----- Von: news-gateway@lugnet.com [mailto:news-gateway...ugnet.com] Im Auftrag von John (...)

GBC module creators tend to independently reinvent the same hopper solutions used in factories. Some of them shake, many of them have an agitator spinning inside it to loosen the pieces, but the simplest just use gravity and a change of direction. (...)

(...) Hello Jordan, Thanks a lot for the tip! This is an amazinly simple and effective way to serialize a ball flow. According to my experiments, there is a little thing to add to your explanations: the narrow ramp level must be sufficiently lower (...) (16 years ago, 4-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Thank Rafe Donahue, actually. I learned about it from a math/statistics-based presentation about GBC modules he gave at BrickWorld 2007. If he didn't discover the technique himself, he at least documented it. :) I haven't seen a lot of modules (...) (16 years ago, 8-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)
