pelletized material, using all stan-
dard valve sizes. Use of reducer inserts will lower the rate shown.
Throughput rates are based on:
•
A 4-position blender
recipe of 20% regrind, 80% natural, 3% color and
2% additive material.
•
A 6-position blender
recipe of 20% regrind, 80% natural, 3% color at position
3, 2% additive at position 4, 3% additive at position 5 and 2% additive at
position 6.
