A low-cost drug compounding system that can practically fit inside of a fume hood or the like is provided. The system can use a single pump operable in forward and reverse directions (or multiple pumps) to compound complex mixtures particularly including those requiring the creation of solutions from dry or powdered ingredients. A wireless link allows operation of the system remotely. In one embodiment, the system uses a disposable mixing tube set that can be discarded after mixing while still attached to the base ingredient containers used for the compounding thereby minimize the chance of personnel exposure.

A feed mixer truck for mixing feed and for discharging mixed feed into an elongated feed bunk. The engine of the truck is mechanically connected to three hydraulic pumps which are hydraulically connected to a hydraulic motor for driving the drive wheels of the truck, which are hydraulically connected to a hydraulic motor for operating the feed mixer augers, and which are hydraulically connected to a hydraulic motor which operates a feed discharge assembly. A control is electrically connected to the motors to control the operation thereof.

The invention relates to a laboratory device, in particular to a magnetic stirrer, having a heating unit for heating a medium, in particular a liquid, in a container, and having a regulating unit that is configured to regulate the temperature of the medium, of the heating unit and/or of the container by controlling the heating power of the heating unit, wherein a weight determination unit is provided to determine the weight of the medium, and wherein the regulation of the temperature takes place in dependence on the weight determined.

An installation and a method for treating a plastic melt includes a reactor that has a reactor housing consisting of first and second reactor housing parts, a mixing element being arranged in the second reactor housing part and mounted thereupon so as to rotate about a rotational axis. The reactor, together with a discharge device and with at least one weighing device connected between these, is supported on a contact area.

An apparatus for preparing a medical solution by adding substances present in solid molded bodies to a solvent comprises a mixing container, which can be filled through an inlet with a solvent and from which the solution can be supplied to an application via an outlet, and which also has a feed port, through which the solid molded body can be introduced into the mixing container, as well as a dosing apparatus for controllable selective addition of solid molded bodies or parts thereof with different ingredients and/or different concentrations of ingredients from one or more storage containers, in which one or more corresponding receptacles of the apparatus are stored and in which the solid molded bodies are stored in such a way that they can be removed. The apparatus may also have a code detection device for detecting and analyzing a machine-readable code associated with a storage container, said code containing information about which ingredients are contained in the solid molded bodies stored in the respective storage container.

An automated computer-controlled sampling system and related methods for collecting, processing, and analyzing agricultural samples for various chemical properties such as plant available nutrients. The sampling system allows multiple samples to be processed and analyzed for different analytes or chemical properties in a simultaneous concurrent or semi-concurrent manner. Advantageously, the system can process soil samples in the as collected condition without drying or grinding. The system generally includes a sample preparation sub-system which receives soil samples collected by a probe collection sub-system and produces a slurry (i.e. mixture of soil, vegetation, and/or manure and water), and a chemical analysis sub-system which processes the prepared slurry samples for quantifying multiple analytes and/or chemical properties of the sample. The sample preparation and chemical analysis sub-systems can be used to analyze soil, vegetation, and/or manure samples.

The present disclosure relates to a dispenser, comprising: a housing; a plurality of cartridges which are disposed inside the housing; a mounting body to which the plurality of cartridges are mounted so as to be replaceable; a main motor which rotates the mounting body; and an elevating body which elevates such that a composition is discharged from any one of the plurality of cartridges, wherein the elevating body may be disposed so as to be displaced on a rotation path on which the plurality of cartridges rotate.

A blending system is described for preparing a blended mixture. The blending system includes a control system having at least a processor, a computer-readable memory, and a display, wherein the memory contains software configured to receive a formula defining instructions for preparing a blended mixture using one or more blending materials and amounts for the blended mixture using a scale. The blending system further includes management software stored in the computer-readable memory and executed by the control system, the software in communication with the control system to exchange information on customers and formulas for blended mixtures associated with the customers. Additionally, the control system includes software configured to calculate information associated with the one or more blending materials and the blended mixture when input is received by the control system and displays the calculated information associated with the one or more blending materials and the blended mixture on the display.

A dough mixer with a weighing function includes a main machine and a dough mixing assembly mounted on the main machine, wherein the main machine comprises a motor therein and the dough mixing assembly comprises a dough mixing bowl, an upper cover, a transmission shaft connected to the motor and a dough mixing device connected to the transmission shaft. The dough mixer also includes two symmetrically arranged weighing sensors at left and right sides of the main machine respectively. With the dough mixer, ingredients can be directly placed into the dough mixing bowl and weighed, so that the operation of the dough mixer is simple and rapid.

A mixing system for mixing ground or soil with an additive in a batch mode, the mixing system comprising: a moveable mixing device for mixing the ground with an additive, and moving mechanism, such as a moveable arm; a cargo body positioning area for receiving a cargo body; the cargo body positioning area and the moving mechanism being configured in position such that the mixing device can be positioned in the ground through an upper open side of the cargo body; the mixing system furthermore comprising information obtaining system for automated obtaining information regarding the load of the cargo body for allowing the mixing system to mix the ground with the additive, taking into account said information.
