A Product is any material used in a Work Order to create a mix. This includes liquids, dry materials, fertilizers, and carriers (like water). Every product requires a defined density to ensure the system measures it accurately.
To add a new product to your inventory, navigate to the Products overview page and press the blue "+" button in the lower right corner.
Product Name*: The name that appears when selecting products for a Work Order.
Physical Form: Choose between Liquid or Dry.
Note: If you select Dry, the density is automatically set to 1.0 Specific Gravity.
Density and Density Rate*: The numerical value and units (e.g., lbs/gal) that define the product's weight-to-volume ratio.
Regulatory Number: A field for tracking EPA numbers or other official identifiers.
| Field | Description |
| Prefill (Dry Only) | Defines the amount of water used to prefill the inductor before adding dry product. |
| Rinse Amount* | The default volume of carrier used to flush the lines after this product is added. Note: For products used as Carriers, the rinse amount is typically set to 0. |
| Default Rate | The standard usage rate (e.g., Fluid Ounces/Acre). Setting this here saves time when adding the product to a new Work Order. |
| Display Unit | The specific unit of measurement you want the operator to see on the screen during the mixing process. |
Pro Tip for Dry Products: When using a Mixmate inductor, a prefill range of 1 to 5 gallons is recommended. A smaller number creates a more aggressive flow, which helps ingest difficult-to-dissolve dry products.
Mixmate includes a simple inventory countdown feature to help you track your stock levels.
Container Size and Unit: Define how you receive the product (e.g., 2.5 Gallon jugs or 250 Gallon totes).
Current Inventory: Enter your total stock in container units. Mixmate will subtract the amount used after each mix and update this value automatically.
Example: If you have ten 2.5-gallon jugs and want to track the total volume, your inventory is "25" (total gallons).
