Hello, I was hoping by joining this site that I could get the chance to talk to a couple of much smarter more experienced individuals. Currently I am trying to figure out a way to track a spool of material as it unwinds, I’d have it display a warning when it gets low , and stop further processes when empty. This would be easy if the spool would be a consistent size, but that’s where I’m having issues. I was initially thinking of using a laser sensor but I’m not sure that would work since of the differences in size. If you have any tips or ideas I’d love to hear them thank you!

Thank you I will look into this!
