How Maguire Weigh Scale Blenders Work:
Dispense Sequence:
NATURAL material is added second. This amount is
calculated to leave exactly the right amount of room for
the COLOR and ADDITIVE.
Once the NATURAL fill portion of the cycle has ended,
the exact weight of the NATURAL that has actually
dispensed is determined to detect even the smallest error.
Based on this actual weight of NATURAL material, COLOR
is then metered into the mix to the ratio requested.
ADDITIVE is now added in the same way.
All components are then dumped into the continuously
running mixing chamber.
Features:
In actual operation, color and additive is held within 1/10 of 1%
of requested ratio.
If there is not sufficient NATURAL, COLOR, or ADDITIVE materials to produce the required mix, then the process will stop and the ALARM will be activated. An insufficient quantity of REGRIND may also be programmed to sound an alarm and stop the process.
Data is continuously accumulated in a memory buffer to show
the total weights of all components that have passed through the
system. This data can be displayed upon request and cleared to zero at any time.
A computer may be added to monitor all weigh scale blenders in
the plant, accumulating through-put data and generating reports at any time. Such reports show inventory usages for each shift, each day, each machine, each work order, and operator.
The system is modular in design. Both COLOR and ADDITIVE
feeders can be added later or exchanged at any time for a larger feeder or LIQUID COLOR pump. The CONTROLLER is equipped with outlets so that all external devices plug into it. This allows
controllers to be exchanged for updating of software or
maintenance without downtime.
The weigh chamber, mix blades, and mix chamber slide out for cleaning, if necessary.
All dispense ports are visible through acrylic windows so that you may monitor the complete DISPENSE cycle visually. The mix
chamber is also clearly visible through large acrylic windows.
