11.4 Batch Weighing System
The Trio Batch Weighing System enables mixing different feeds stored in two or three silos
and distributing the feed mixture to hoppers (Figure 2).
Trio supports two types of weighers:
• External batch weighers, in which defined quantities of feed are added to the mix.
Each batch generates a pulse, which is transmitted to the Trio via the digital input
channel (refer to External Batch Bin Installation, page 77).
• Electronic batch weighers, which use a load cell system to measure the feed
delivered on each batch. Trio receives the data via the scale card. The user defines
the batch size (weight) and the feed mixture (in percentages). This data determines
how much feed each silo provides to each batch (refer to Electronic Batch
Weighing Installation, page 79).
This system does not require silo load cells to provide data on feed distribution. However,
when there are multiple systems in place, Trio automatically prioritizes the data input as
follows:
• Batch weighers
• Silo
• Cross auger (time)

Every time feed is placed into the batch weigher, Trio receives a pulse. Each pulse
corresponds to a quantity of feed. The mix is generated by defining the quantities
(meaning, the number of pulses) of different type of feed to be added.
