Digital Readout For Use With Electronic Or Mechanical Scales

Electronic Scales are equipped with a load cell in each of the mixer's four corners. A channel iron framework is provided above and bellow the load cells to support scale and mixer.

Mechanical Scales are provided with a load cell attached to the transverse lever which sends information to the digital readout.

Weight is continuously displayed in bright numerals as it increases or decreases on the scale and may be registered in either pounds or kilograms with the push of a button. Push buttons are also provided to show net, tare or gross weight on the scale at any time. Built-in jacks allow information to be fed from indicator to a printer or computer. Information entered into the indicator, may be fed to a printer or computer, includes: the weight of each ingredient and that of the total batch; time and date the ration was mixed; ration number; I.D. number of the operator and number of batches prepared.

Automatic cut-off switches can be built into the indicator which will send a signal to shut off an auger, conveyor, or close a gate when the preset weight of a particular ingredient has been added to the batch. Multiple switches may be used in order to load a complete ration automatically.

DAVIS Mini Batching System

Our digital readout may be upgraded to a "Mini Batching System" which will store up to 25 formulas in memory, operate many types of loading augers, bucket elevators, conveyors, etc., run the mixer for a specified time, open mixer's outlet gate, close gate and repeat the same formula. It also includes all of the features provided with our digital readout which is described above. It has a jack on the back of the case to plug a standard 101 keyboard and includes a printer or computer output port.

DAVIS Automatic Batching Control

Increases productivity and improves quality. Our Batching Control is a State of the Art Processing System utilizing IBM Compatible Electronics. All commands are entered using pull down menus on a standard full color screen with a "point and click" selection. The Batcher can automatically operate augers, flow gates, liquid pumps, conveyors and motors to quickly and accurately measure the predetermined amount of each ingredient in the recipe, mix the batch for a specified time and discharge to the designated location. Records are stored on the hard drive inside the computer for later access.

**Some of the features include the following:**
Unlimited formula memory and ingredient capability. Separate scales for main and micro ingredients with micro scale calibrated in .01 pound increments. Records are maintained for the amount of each ingredient used, as well as the total number and weight of each formula mixed. Control will accept orders to mix multiple formulas at a preset time: i.e. Mix 5 batches of formula four, 3 batches of formula two, etc. and begin at 9:00 A.M. on a preset date. IBM PC-compatible based computer. Optional printer provides a hard copy record of all information.	All data is saved on the hard drive for later access, plus program changes and updates may be made as conditions require. Manual backup controls as shown above can be provided. Batching Control is adaptable to all Davis Mixers now in operation. System may be built to handle main ingredients only. Control may be upgraded at a later date to accommodate both main and micro ingredients. Batching Control need not be purchased with Mixer. It may be incorporated later.
