jmorris Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) I haven’t had much time to play with this, built the electronics part, did the programming and threw together the mechanical parts months ago. It’s still a long way from being a finished product but it’s also one of those projects that can get lost do to “life getting in the way” if I don’t see some sort of progress. The idea is to begin the sort by a 10 grain differential with those dropping into one of 10 bins, then take all from a single bin and change the resolution to 1 grain differential, then take all from a single bin and change to .1 grain resolution. So in the end you can have brass sorted to the tenth of a grain without having to touch a single case. Proof of concept and hopefully enough inspiration to finish it out when it cools off outside.

DesertTortoise Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 It would be interesting to see if that also has the side effect of sorting by headstamp / lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjsmith223 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I have to say its pretty cool. Now, because i am ignorant on the subject, why would you need to sort brass by weight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsu96 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Maybe separating by caliber --- 9 vs 40 vs 45 vs 38 vs etc. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmorris Posted August 24, 2018 Author Share Posted August 24, 2018 Yes, for precision rifle stuff. I built this one years ago that sorts by caliber much faster than the above machine could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
