Blending System is self monitoring and self correcting.
Press Release Summary:
MASS/BLEND® Continuous Stream Digital Blending System makes liquid products on demand in real time from liquid feed stocks. Suited for pilot plant to production scale blending of liquid products, system uses inherently rational control methodology and features PC/PLC based controls. Blending accuracy is not compromised by stop-start events. System operates with all types of liquids with 0-400 gpm continuous stream capability and automatically adapts to changes in takeaway flow rates.
Original Press Release:
Oden Corporation Introduces New Mass /Blend® Continuous Stream Digital Blending Systems
Tonawanda, N.Y. - Oden Corporation, the industry leader in advanced liquid filling technology, announces the introduction of its exclusive, patented MASS/BLEND® Continuous Stream Digital Blending System (Patent No. 6,186,193B1), designed to eliminate many of the problems associated with large batch preparation using large holding tanks. The new MASS/BLEND System makes liquid products on demand in real time from liquid feed stocks, thus providing more compounding flexibility, faster product switchovers, shorter practical run capabilities, and superior product quality. An extensive technical white paper is available.
MASS/BLEND systems are available for pilot plant to production scale blending of liquid products and the technology can be utilized in every segment of the liquid products markets. The system architecture for Oden's MASS/BLEND design is extremely simple, easy to program, low in system volume, and completely free of error induced by process variables. MASS/BLEND uses a control methodology that is inherently rational, rather than one requiring complex control schemes to manage; and blending accuracy is not compromised by stop-start events.
The MASS/BLEND System eliminates large volume holding tanks and lengthy batch transfer times, resulting in an increased ability to quickly manufacture more product variants and to produce liquid products in short runs with fast changeover. The system operates with all types of liquids - low viscosity to high - with 0 to 400 GPM continuous stream capability.
The MASS/BLEND System features state-of-the-art PC/PLC based controls including graphic color touch-screen interface and a choice of software programs and statistical process control packages. The system is inherently accurate, stable, self-monitoring, and self-correcting. It automatically adapts to changes in takeaway flow rates without re-calibration or stream flow adjustment.
Oden Corporation custom designs and manufactures advanced technology liquid filling systems and continuous stream digital blending systems used in a wide variety of industries including food processing, pharmaceutical, personal care products, chemical processing, household products, general industrial and petroleum.
