Re: pic: Ball Harvester

Here's a tidbit we've found:

We've found that while on a slick surface, about half the time the orbit balls run away when they're hit wrong by the harvester fingers ... so having the roller edge @ 9" off the floor with the fingers extending down to 7.5" is our best solution. The harvester roller edge is 8" from the opposite conveyor side though, so the ball is under slight compression while in the conveyor.

Are you guys integrating tubing/belting in between the fingers for the conveyor? If so, have you solved the issue of the belting getting caught on the harvester fingers? That's our next thing to tackle.
