CONTINUOUS STREAM DIGITAL BLENDING SYSTEMS
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 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.

BASIC CONCEPTS
How It Works - A Brief Look
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.
