Gravimetric Batch Blenders w/Mitsubishi Control Chapter 8: Addendum 93

Feed Calibration Options Screen

This screen allows you to perform the feeder calibrations for each feeder (in weight per

second). This is useful when the feed calibration is giving you an error message (most

commonly caused by overfilling the hopper during the calibration). Select a feeder and then

follow instructions. An error is shown if the current feeder calibration feed time was too

short, the feed time was too long, or if the hopper weight exceeded 110% of the set batch

weight. In the case that the feeder exceeded 110% (maximum hopper weight) due to a high

rate hopper then the “Batch % for Feeder Cal” setting might be set too high. Consult the

manufacturer if this problem arises. The current feeder calibration values are also shown on

this page. It is not necessary to perform feeder calibrations. The blender will

automatically learn these values during the batch.

Mechanical Options Screen

This screen allows the user to change the number of hoppers, the predetermined gate cycle

time, and the mixer bump time for detecting high level.

The gate cycle time has been measured and set at the factory, but might need to be adjusted if

we change the mechanical design of the gate, solenoids, and air cylinders. This setting will

vary depending on whether you are using a gate or an auger.
