The operating process of the system is shown as follows:


1. When pushing the START button on the electrical cabinet, conveyor #1 will move the bin.
2. When the bin moves to IR sensor 1, the sensor will send a signal to the controller, stopping conveyor #1.
3. After conveyor #1 stops, conveyor #2 will start, continuously carrying the workpiece down to the bin.
4. IR sensor #2 will count the number of workpieces put into the bin. When the number of workpiece is 5, stop
conveyor #2.
5. When conveyor #2 stops, start conveyor #1 to carry the bin to the outlet. Repeat the process until the STOP
button is pressed.
