NORMAL OPERATING SEQUENCE - EACH CYCLE

As the sensor is uncovered, the cycle begins. The target weight of a
complete batch is 18000, 9000, 4000, 2000, 1000, or 400 grams.

REGRINDS are dispensed first, in their order of size, largest dispense
first. After all the Regrind dispenses, the space remaining in the
weigh bin is determined.

NATURALS are dispensed second, in their order of size, each at the
correct ratio to the others. These dispenses are calculated to fill
the bin leaving just enough space for the Additive dispenses. After
all Natural dispense are complete the exact weight of all of the
NATURALS is determined and, based on this actual dispense weight, the

Additive dispenses are now calculated.

ADDITIVES are dispensed last. These dispenses are calculated as a
percentage of all the NATURAL components only.

If any dispense fails to reach the requested weight, the process does
NOT CONTINUE. The ALARM Strobe light flashes, the Beeper sounds, and
the system continues to retry the dispense until the problem is
remedied.

The total batch is then dropped into the mixing chamber for blending
before entering the throat of the process machine.
