The Recipe Format screen allows the user to change many parameters concerning the way that the recipe is entered by the operator. It is accessed by touching the manufacturer’s icon on either the Recipe screen or the Inventory Screen. The user must enter in the User Password to gain access (see User Password Setup for details.). The following Recipe Modes are described on the next page:

“Quickset” Mode (Most common in injection molding)

The “Quickset” menu structure allows recipes to be entered and adjusted by touching the buttons on the panel face (for 1 to 6 components). In this mode, hopper #1 is configured as virgin, hopper #3 is configured as regrind, and the others are configured as additives, i.e. color. The operator enters in the percentage of regrind and additives, and the virgin percentage is automatically calculated. The regrind percentage represents a percentage of the total batch, and the additives are based on a percentage of the virgin weight. This is useful because the percentage of regrind can be changed without affecting the ratio of color or additive to the virgin weight. Each percentage can be up to 100%, but not greater. The virgin percentage is automatically calculated by the blender and the operator is not required to enter it.

The ingredient names selected will be displayed on the run mode display so the operator will know what material is being blended.

Note: The #1 hopper (“NAT” - Virgin Material) recipe ingredient will not be shown on the recipe setup menu.

Note: ADD (Additive) designations will weigh the ingredient as a percentage of natural material only.

Note: RGD (Regrind) designations will weigh the ingredient as a percentage of the total batch. (It is assumed the regrind has been generated from pre-blended production and already contains the same color and/or additives.)

Note: Virgin material must be loaded into hopper #1 and regrind into hopper #3.

Note: Component #3 is designed to handle regrind and most models come equipped with a larger, square gate to reduce the likelihood of bridging. If regrind is being used, it should always be run through component #3. If you don’t have regrind, another major ingredient can be run through component #3.

Please see Figure 21 on the next page for example calculations (setup).
