If you put an inductive sensor on your office pointing to the mixing station it can detect the mixer and turn on the fan with a timer so it can keep running a bit longer then the time needed tp mix a badge of feed
@@drooplug I agree using a sensor on the conveyor, is a better idea, if I understand from some of Eric's earlier videos, one of the feeding machines basically lives at that docking station. Once it's filled, it will head out and drop off the feed and the second feeder will move from its parking station underneath the conveyors and live there until it's ready to be filled with the next batch of feed, and then it will head out, so the only really good place for that kind of sensor would be on the conveyor. Although you don't know which one of them conveyors is actually going to be bringing feed to the wagon, it may just have to be an optical sensor that sensors across the top where all the feed is coming from, or you could use a power inductive circuit one on each of the conveyors, and if any one of the conveyors is running, it, will trip a relay to turn on the fan with a timer for five or 10 minutes after the conveyor stopped running before it shuts off, you probably also want a Switch next to the door to override to turn the fan on just Cuz. But what do I know I'm no farmer. 😀.
Y'all are making it way more complicated than it needs to be! The robot system already turns on a conveyor. Easy enough to trigger a relay that controls the fan whenever a conveyor comes on. If it needs to run for a few minutes longer than the conveyors, use a relay with a timed delay shutoff.
WOW!! When I was young and did chores on our family farm the cows got corn silage, bailed alfalfa hay. Topped that off with grown corn, little oats and a supplement. Now a days every supplement is weighed Measured and feed value calculated. Wish you the best on this project. I can't wait to see finished and running.
Eric, the project is coming along pretty well! With your video documenting all the process for if you have issues down the road. It also reminds me of when we built our silo to the new auto conveyor system we built back in the '70s.
It has been interesting watching this all come together. Defiantly a high capital upgrade. If you were to ask your Dad how he is feeling right now would he say apprehensive, excited or just a little bit nervous how this will all work out. Really will be a huge change in your operation.
You two would make good roofers the way you did the cut-outs and putting the sheets back !! Looking forward to it being finishes and a great harvest to top it off. Greetings from Australia
Eric, I am happy for you and I know it is a great expiation for you seeing the conveyors in place, Looking good, I am happy for you. God bless you. Claude
I was talking with a friend after church this morning (one of the few dairy farmers in Bucks county PA) One of his college students who has been working for him on and off for a while is starting a new job with the company involved in your project. I also follow a guy out in Iowa, he had the first Lely system, both what you are doing and robotic milkers. It has been interesting seeing it in operation there and watching your build.
Looks like you're doing a great job Eric!! Not only being a dairyman you would seem to be a good sub-contractor as well. It's looking more and more exciting all the time. GREAT JOB!!
Yeah buddy! Lets goooo! Made some great progress in this episode. That feed room is going to look sharp when its finished. Can't wait to see all the parts finally going!
Starting to take shape can't wait till all set up & kinks worked out, keep up with the video's we are totally hooked & hope you guys are totally satisfied with end result.
Eric, talk to your electrician on that exhaust fan. Should be able to get power to an adjustable timer started by one of the conveyors that way you can adjust runtime as your rations get bigger and smaller. Also that center pipe with the chains on it, we use to call them flying dutchmens
The outside drop between the silo to the conveyor is significant. You going to put something more there ? I’m thinking winter snow and wind and the silage, etc blowing all over the place. Maybe a piece of round canvas down to the conveyor ? You must be excited ! It’s really coming together ! Congratulations !
Absolutely great vid today Eric. That's a heck of a lot more complicated than I thought when you first mentioned it. Fingers crossed it all works together when you finally flip the switch.
You might want to move the exhaust fan so it is flush with the outside of the building (not the internal wall. Louvers on the outside surface). This way you will not have water running down the inside of the wall.
You and your dad should have been engineers great to see your plans and hard work coming together you deserve to be successful with the work you all put in
An angle grinder generates sparks of metal and emery. They burn into the surface treatment of the profile steel plates and the metal shavings rust and the surface becomes rough and ugly. A piston nipper is used to cut profile sheets. Contractors learned it the hard and expensive way, new wall/roofing. Exciting to follow your projects.
His account and followers is growing steadily. Good material and interesting subject matter. He works his butt off too!
The built is done, nothing to see…
Those both have to be AI comments
@@motel581 I’m not artificial intelligent, I’m the real deal intelligent. Lol
@@robinghuntI think some people that hear someone that talks intelligently they automatically think it's AI. 😅
Or it could be the wording? People typically wouldn’t speak that way. Has nothing to do with intelligence
Love seeing you and your Dad working together ....... we don't see enough of him !
G'day from Oz !
What a beast of a job getting that wall siding back up!!! Great job, you are almost there.

He should be able to tap into the conveyors. Use the sensor you mentioned, operate the fan on the same circuit, or use it to operate a relay.

That's us, right down to our wheelbarrow delivery system.
You guys are crazy talented.. you do almost everything yourselves.. I love that

Nicely done! Gotta love it when you can start to see your plan coming to fruition!!
Crazy complicated looking. Lots of planning and forward thinking, best of luch with this 21 1/2 century system.
WOW!! Nice job! Thanks for letting us have a front row seat for this project Eric.
♥️🙏🏻🇺🇲
Eric, you and your dad are amazing. The siding job looks great. Great job guys . thank you
Your going to be smiling and have a great sense of accomplishment when it’s up and running !!
looking forward to seeing the entire setup going. i bet it's going to be cool as heck seeing it all running together
The entire setup is really looking good. You are doing a great job. Looking forward to everything being hooked up and in operation.
This is almost like the Jetson's with all of these robots nowadays!!!
So cool to see this coming together. Happy to see a small family dairy thriving when so many I see are dying off.
Quite the operation! Brilliant video 💪🏻 🏴
That is phenomenal. So enjoy watching how God has gifted you with your skill set.
It has been interesting watching this all come together. Defiantly a high capital upgrade. If you were to ask your Dad how he is feeling right now would he say apprehensive, excited or just a little bit nervous how this will all work out. Really will be a huge change in your operation.
Another great update. Looking forward to seeing the robots run. Always a coin toss when ya have to change feed sources. Glad it's working out.
P 22:24
Very exciting seeing it all come together Eric.
That set up is pretty awesome, all the conveyors. and you’re a pretty amazing carpenter Eric
I hope after all this you and your Dad can chill and have more time to yourselves.
You two would make good roofers the way you did the cut-outs and putting the sheets back !! Looking forward to it being finishes and a great harvest to top it off. Greetings from Australia
Great awesome video, nice set up going in , corn needs some frost to dry it down
Project is coming along well and looks great!!!
Fascinating to see this come together!
Eric,
I am happy for you and I know it is a great expiation for you seeing the conveyors in place, Looking good, I am happy for you.
God bless you.
Claude
Pretty awesome! Love watching it come together!
You have accomplished so much. Keep up the hard work. Your goal is within sight!
Eric, you are a genius!
Looking awesome Eric!! Your dad is a great guy and the help you all have! The videos are top notch!! Keep on rolling!!
It's all coming together so well, well done to you guys for making it happen

It’s so exciting to see everything come together
futuristic, man.
Looks awesome! As if you don't have enough to do, but I think painting the wood pieces white would look really sharp!
This is a really cool project! Coming together nicely. Thanks for sharing
It looks really good. You guys did a great job. Can't wait to see it in operation.
Yeah buddy! Lets goooo! Made some great progress in this episode. That feed room is going to look sharp when its finished. Can't wait to see all the parts finally going!
great work in putting things back in order, continue with the updates and all the best in your progress
Wow!! The amount of brain power and hard work in this video is amazing!
All your cuts were perfect first try!
Great job putting it all back together!
Looks great! You guys do super work! Thanks for sharing with us!!!❤❤❤
You’re making it happen! Good on you! 🎉😊
Good ole fashioned OSHA approved farm work. I love it. 😎😎
LOOKING REAL NICE!
Awesome patience, it shows!
Why am I so excited to see this all start coming together? I’m not directly benefiting from it 😂 but man is it going to make my job easier 😂
Good job guys
Looking good!!
Come on guys, we just need 52,000 more subscribers to get our friend to a half million.
Professional work right there!!!!! God Bless!!!!!!!!!!! He's coming soon!!!!!!!
Always enjoy your updates.
Nice! You and your dad rock👍
It's really cool to see how all this is coming together.
Looking very nice.
Starting to take shape can't wait till all set up & kinks worked out, keep up with the video's we are totally hooked & hope you guys are totally satisfied with end result.
GREAT INSIGHT...ALL THE PLANNING MADE FOR FLAWLESS FINISHED PRODUCT 😅😊😅🎉❤... VERY PROUD OF Y'ALL 🖐️👏😊
Wish you good luck with that setup. That is a lot of remote control moving parts and you only need one to go bad to create a major mess.
Interesting video! Now you can see how the conveyors run to the vectors, before it was a bit difficult to imagine.
I hope you put a Shed over the Conveyor or Top because Snow and Ice will Be Stuck or Dump into Robots!
Nothing wrong with moisture in the feed
The best RUclips content! Thank You.
Very Good!!
Nice work cutting the metal in on the walls.👍
Nice work. Agriculture leads the way with technology and innovation.
Coming along looking good can’t wait to see it running. Nice job with the metal. 👍
Love videos of you guys installing stuff ❤
It is awesome to see how well you and your father work together…

Doggo managing the project! Love the candid appearances lol
Absolutely great vid today Eric. That's a heck of a lot more complicated than I thought when you first mentioned it. Fingers crossed it all works together when you finally flip the switch.
You’re making the farm bigger and bigger every video. Keep up the good work!
Lucky inspector Doggo is there to manage all the hard work, dont want anyone to get hurt!
Big transition! Congratulations. Hello from St Paul Minnesota ❤
Add a 110v relay to the fan and it will switch on when the conveyor starts.
Awesome video Eric. It's kool seeing things coming together for the automatic feeding system. You'll get it all done in due time.
🚜🚜🚜
Great video Erik. It's all coming together nicely. Cheers to all at 10Gen.🇨🇦
Great video :) I enjoy watching the progress very much :)
Slick setup
after a long day at work, there is nothing better than watching ur video :D
Lely should be giving you a discount for all this free advertising you are doing for them. Cant wait to see all this stuff turn on for the first time!
I think everything is awesome. Looking good. Can’t wait to see it all running
Great to see the progress you are making. I will be following the next steps. 👍
YOU AND DAD are doing a terrific job.
Looks awesome! Enjoyed seeing this feeding system come together
You might want to move the exhaust fan so it is flush with the outside of the building (not the internal wall. Louvers on the outside surface). This way you will not have water running down the inside of the wall.
Your tin work is just as impressive as most everything you do!! Looking really good.
So cool to see your new setup coming together.
Eric, you and your Dad are men of so many talents! Really great to watch your progress.
You and your dad should have been engineers great to see your plans and hard work coming together you deserve to be successful with the work you all put in
Measure twice, cut once!
All is shaping up great! Really curious to know if your milk numbers will increase once the robots start.
Nice job. It's coming out really good..👍
GRREAT JOB
