This system extends the parts selection task into a simple assembly system. Plastic and Metal components are selected by size and material, fed onto chutes for dispensing into a final assembly task where they are combined with a second component. The finished components are then stored by material type or type of assembly. The added complexity of this system allows further study of PLCs in process control systems. An optional width gauge is available.
