Abstract
A rate control system to deliver a constant throughput for batt forming equipment that forms the batts by maintaining a pressure gradient across fibers deposited on a rotating condenser screen, the weight of a moving fiber batt is continuously measured as it passes over an inclined slide mounted on load cells. This measurement is converted electronically to a rate value which is then used with the pressure gradient signal to control the delivery of fiber to the condenser screen by adjusting the speed of the feed rolls used to feed the fiber to the condenser screen.
