A discharge container 1 includes a container body having a discharge face 13, on which a discharge hole 15 is formed, a cylinder part including a discharge space 2 in communication with the discharge hole 15 inside the container body, a piston 3 movable between a first position and a second position, the second position being farther than the first position from the discharge face in the discharge space 2, and a plurality of storage portions 5a to 5e for storing contents, wherein a plurality of inlet holes respectively corresponding to the plurality of storage portions 5a to 5e are formed in an inner wall of the discharge space 2, wherein, when the piston 3 is at the second position, the plurality of inlet holes 22a to 22e communicate with the discharge space 2 between a top face of the piston 3 and the discharge face, and the contents are ready to flow into the discharge space 2 from the plurality of inlet holes 22a to 22e, and wherein, when the piston 3 is at the first position, the plurality of inlet holes 22a to 22e are closed by the piston 3.

A pharmaceutical compounding system includes a plurality of vials and a receptacle. The system is arranged to remove substances stored within the vials and combine them within the receptacle to form a medication, and each vial is continuously maintained gripped within the system during preparation of the medication.

An exemplary compounding system and method can include two pump heads for simultaneously drawing two different fluids from at least two separate input containers such that the at least two different fluids are mixed and distributed to an output container. The system can include a manifold that maintains separation of certain of the different fluids until after passing by a first pump and a second pump and/or additional pumps. A junction can be placed in the fluid line downstream of the first and second pumps and/or additional pumps such that all or some of the fluids are mixed prior to output to the output container. The method of using the system can include incorporating software that selects various fluids at certain times and sequences to ensure optimum efficiency and safety for the system, and can continue compounding actions even when an input supply container runs out or otherwise fails to supply a particular fluid/material. The method of use also includes connection of a transfer set to a housing in a manner that further ensures optimum efficiency and safety.

Controllers and methods of bulk explosive loading systems are disclosed. A controller of a bulk explosive loading system includes a communication interface configured to communicate with a human-machine interface (HMI). The HMI is configured to execute a software program configured to enable the HMI to receive user inputs from a user. The controller also includes control outputs to output control signals to electrically controllable components. The controller further includes sensor inputs configured to receive sensor signals from sensors configured to monitor the bulk explosive loading system. The controller also includes a processor configured to process recipe information received from the HMI, generate the control signals based on the recipe information to control the electrically controllable components to blend the mixture, process the sensor signals received during blending of the mixture, and transmit blending information to the HMI device. The blending information includes information regarding the blending of the mixture.

Expert system and method for computing an adjustment procedure for obtaining an adjusted exterior waterborne paint composition for an exterior surface to be painted at a paint application site on a specific date. A starting exterior waterborne paint composition comprises base chemical compounds. When one or more computed target values of target chemical compounds for the adjusted exterior waterborne paint composition are determined different from the plurality of base values, the adjustment procedure is computed for transforming the starting exterior waterborne paint composition into the adjusted exterior paint composition and instructions comprising the adjustment procedure are sent to a remote device.
