Technical Paper: The Blend Uniformity Index

By K-Tron Process Group

Simply operating within established ingredient tolerances may not be good enough anymore. A new, practical and application-specific measure of blend uniformity underscores the importance of feeding accuracy and suggests an effective strategy to achieve improved formulation consistency.

Common to all processors is the concept of a recipe. Wherever two or more materials are combined, a recipe exists. Whether it's called a recipe, a formulation, blend, or compound, the notion is the same: to specify ingredient proportions to create a product possessing certain carefully defined properties, attributes or characteristics. Small-scale processing operations may proportion ingredients manually (either by volume or weight), but continuous or batch feeders usually perform the proportioning operation where throughputs are higher.
