3% Color
Application: 2
nd
Natural (or un-colored regrind) is used without any Color and therefore both naturals require color.
Settings:
Natural N 30 (Naturals are a ratio to each other, in this case a 30 parts to 70 parts ratio)
Natural N 70
Color A 3
Calculation:
•
Total = 1000 grams
•
Hopper 1 Natural at 30% (Ratio to hopper 2 natural 30% 70%, 291.3 grams)
•
Hopper 2 Natural at 70% (Ratio to hopper 1 natural 30% 70%, 679.6 grams)
•
Naturals: (1000.0 - 0) / (100% + 3%) = 1000.0 / 1.03 = 970.8 (Full weight - Ra) / (100 + As)
•
Additive: 970.8 * 3% = 29.1 (Naturals * As)
•
The blender is doing this calculation automatically for you
Result:
1 Natural 291.3g 29.1 parts
2 Natural 679.6g 68.0 parts
3 Color 29.1g 2.9 parts
Batch Total 1000g 100 parts
Example 3:
Blender:
WSB 100 Series with 1000g Batch
Materials:
25% Regrind
65% Regrind
4% Regrind
6% Regrind
Application: Due to previous systems you are used to set all components as proportion.
The total should be always 100%. When using settings that are % of total, always use all Regrind
material types.
Settings:
Regrind R 25
Regrind R 65
Regrind R 4
Additive R 6
Calculation:
The blender is calculating only the set values in grams according the setting referring to the Batch
weight.
Result:
1 Regrind 250.0g 25.0 parts
2 Regrind 650.0g 65.0 parts
3 Regrind 60g 6.0 parts
4 Regrind 40g 4.0 parts
Batch Total 1000g 100 parts
Example 4:
Blender:
WSB 100 Series with 1000g Batch
Materials:
20% Regrind
50% Natural
30% Natural
4% Color
6% Additive
Application: Regrind is recycled next to the machine and therefore already has Color and Additive. Color and
Additive only needs to be added to the 2 Natural materials.
Settings:
Regrind R 20
Natural N 50 (Ratio to hopper 3 natural 50% 30%, 454.5 grams)
