Abstract :
The automatic control of a dynamic batch-weighing system integrates many functions, more commonly associated with automation in the machine-tool industry. They are: 1. Power converting 2. Power actuating 3. Sensing 4. Regulating 5. Communicating 6. Programming 7. Computing 8. Data converting 9. Data storing 10. Data presenting Data storing and data presenting are the functions that directly involve the use of a punch card and similar information-storage media, and will be developed in detail.
