Batch Weight Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the batch weight (BW) is:

$BW = NMV \times SG \times FF$

Where:

BW is the Batch Weight (kg)
NMV is the Net Mixer Volume (m³)
SG is the Density of Mixed Batch (kg/m³)
FF is the Fill Factor

What is Batch Weight?

Batch weight refers to the total weight of a mixed batch, which is calculated by multiplying the net mixer volume, the density of the mixed batch, and the fill factor. This calculation is important in various industries to ensure the correct proportions and quantities are used in production processes.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Net Mixer Volume ( $NMV$ ) = 2 m³
Density of Mixed Batch ( $SG$ ) = 1500 kg/m³
Fill Factor ( $FF$ ) = 0.8

Using the formula:

$BW = 2 \times 1500 \times 0.8 = 2400$

The Batch Weight is 2400 kg.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Net Mixer Volume ( $NMV$ ) = 3 m³
Density of Mixed Batch ( $SG$ ) = 1800 kg/m³
Fill Factor ( $FF$ ) = 0.75

Using the formula:

$BW = 3 \times 1800 \times 0.75 = 4050$

The Batch Weight is 4050 kg.
