With the LIW system, a LIW controller is processing a single material or blend of
materials. When you create a recipe for the LIW system, specific gravity is calculated
from the percentages of multiple materials in your recipe. For reporting purposes, the LIW
controller will use component 12 as an accumulator and the hopper 12 will show a type
and setting in the recipe download screen. With the current G2 configuration, we suggest
adding a material name that you would consider calling the “blended” material in the LIW
hopper. Add this to your recipe in component 12 with the type Natural and a setting of
zero. This will make sense once you run a material usage report.
If prompted with a material type, select the
material type. type Color in 12-Software
recipes becomes type Additive. Enter the
desired setting for that material. Settings
follow the rules of the Maguire blenders.
Regrinds, colors and additives by default
use a setting with whole numbers and
tenths. If the setting uses 100ths (i.e.
6.75), the field will highlight in yellow
indicating G2 will also adjust that
components XT parameter, adjusting the
decimal place to 100ths.
When the recipe is complete, click
Add/Update.
