The SGB blending system is a gravimetric batching system. The blender will weigh a preprogrammed batch of material each cycle. This batch size is determined by the blender’s weigh hopper size, the current recipe, and the bulk density of the ingredients.

Because the blending systems must handle a wide variety of materials, with varying bulk densities, the actual amount of weight of material the weigh hopper will hold can vary dramatically from application to application.

The weigh hopper size selected should be one that approaches the maximum capacity of the load cells without over-filling the weigh hopper. During the initial setup of each blender, the weigh hopper size setting should be checked to ensure that the weigh hopper is not overfilling due to a large percentage of light weight regrind, etc. The batch size will vary from model to model. The bulk density of the material being blended will also affect the batch size.

Important! If running a high percentage of lighter density regrind.

Set the batch size so that the mixer does not overfill, preventing the weigh hopper from fully dumping when operating in “Batch Ready Mode”.

5-8-18 Inventory Shutdown

In many applications, the user of the SGB System produces large runs of blended material on the same recipe during production. An example may be a 40,000-lb. run of a certain specification plastic extrusion.

Others may wish to fill a 1,000-lb. gaylord box in a central blending application. In either case, Sterling has provided a means to automatically stop the blending system when the blended material has reached a preset total blended weight. This is known as Inventory Shutdown.
