Liquid Blending Systems
Gen 3 Mass/ Blend Continuous Stream Digital Building
The MASS/BLEND® Continuous Stream Digital Blending System represents a quantum leap forward in blending system design, eliminating many of the problems associated with large liquid batch preparation and providing more compounding flexibility, faster product turnarounds, shorter practical run capabilities and superior product quality.
Industry applications:
- Food, Dairy and Beverage Plants
- Personal Care Products Industry
- Household Products Industry
- Chemical Products Industry
- Pharma and Biotech Products Industry
- Industrial Products Industry
How it works:
- Each liquid stream is individually dosed to a common location at a net flow rate greater than the maximum take-away rate.
- A dose is “on-off” or digital. It is produced by a servo–PD pump–mass meter “module”.
- Each stream is dosed to a correct mass proportion.
- Each stream starts and stops simultaneously.
- The system can be started or stopped at each dose interval — typically every 5 seconds.
- The system is inherently accurate, stable, self monitoring, self correcting.
- The system automatically adapts to changes in take away flow rates without re-calibration or stream flow adjustment.
The appeal and merit of the Mass/Blend continuous stream blending system, as distinct from a batching system, is clear. The ability to eliminate large liquid product batch preparation and holding tanks leads allows for small system volume, more product compounding flexibility, faster product species turn around, smaller and shorter practical run capabilities and a substantially lower capital asset commitment. Continuous stream in-line blending also yields superior product quality, and eliminates the “wall” between liquid products processing and liquid products packaging, as well as greatly reduce waste, cleanup time and effluent volumes.
