“Parts” Mode (Often used in Compounding Applications)

The “Parts” recipe entry mode lets the operator enter in values based on a parts ratio rather than a percentage. Each entry can be up to 999.99 and the total of all hoppers does not have to be 100. After all values are entered, the total parts are calculated. The individual hopper target is then calculated based on each hopper’s entered parts. These parts represent ratios of the total batch. For instance: Hop 1=300 parts, Hop 2=100 parts, Hop 3=10 parts, Hop 4=5 parts. This would mean that if the batch was divided into 415 parts, then Hop 1 would make up 300 of those parts, Hop 2 would make up 100, Hop 3 10 parts, and Hop 4 5 parts.

The preset part will be divided by the total of all parts, with each part representing the calculated weight for ratio control.

Current Recipe Menu

Throughout the menu structure, the top left corner of the display will list the name of the current screen that you are in. Each individual button will indicate instructions for keystrokes. In the Recipe Format menu shown on the previous page, pressing on the mode button displayed at the top of the screen will show the Current Recipe menu.

Note: The blender will always run the percentages shown in the Current Recipe menu display.

Switching Modes

Recipe Modes can be switched while the blender is making a batch. At any time the operator can switch the recipe entry mode without affecting the current batch being made. The recipe mode is part of the “New Recipe” and is separate from the running recipe.

Once in the Recipe format has been chosen, the following areas will need to be configured:

Feeder Metering Order:

The Slide Gate/Auger blender allows the operator to set the ingredient metering order when making a batch. In order to access the metering order menu, enter the Setup menu and press the “Recipe Format” button (refer to the menu structure on page 59). Once in the “Recipe Format” menu, view “Metering Order.” This display will indicate the current order in which the ingredients are metered. A Metering Order of “123456” means that the blender will feed hopper 1 first and hopper 6 last.

In order to change the metering order, simply press the “Metering Order” button. In the next screen, the operator must select a value from 1 to 654321 and press the enter (“ ”) key. Once the desired metering order is displayed, simply press the “Done” key to save the information and exit from the menu back to the Setup Menu. If the order is changed, then you will need to touch “Accept New Recipe” on the Recipe Screen before the change
