Design and Application of Monitoring System for Flavor Blending

The base flavor is manually blended in flavor kitchen now,the blending process is not well monitored and inconvenient in quality tracing.To improve the blending standards,a monitoring system was incorporated in the centralized control system of flavor kitchen,which was mainly composed of a database server,a PC workstation,electronic scales and a barcode scanner.The system monitored blending process,recorded and filed operation processes automatically.The practical application results indicated that the weight error of each single flavor constituent in blending reduced from 0.05 to 0.02 kg/batch,any mistake in blending could be found timely,and the effective monitor of manual blending process was realized.
