Claim 0:
1. A production system for manufacturing of formulations, comprising a unit (1) for the production of formulations, where the unit (1) comprises a subunit (1.1), comprising:
a. at least one combination of a process mixer and a buffer tank, where the process mixer and the buffer tank contain mixing devices;
b. at least one connection between the process mixer and buffer tank for transfer of part-batches of formulations manufactured in the process mixer from the process mixer into the buffer tank;
c. means (M) of feeding defined amounts of feedstocks into the process mixer;
d. at least one measurement unit configured to ascertain properties of a part-batch of a formulation manufactured in the process mixer;
e. at least one evaluation unit which is in communication with the measurement unit and is configured to determine a deviation of properties of part-batches manufactured in the process mixer from the properties of a predefined target state of an overall batch; and
f. at least one unit which is in communication with the evaluation unit and is configured to adjust the feed of defined amounts of feedstocks into the process mixer, and which is further configured to take account of the deviations in the properties of a manufactured part-batch from the properties of a predefined target state of the overall batch and the number and size of further part-batches in order to adjust the amounts of feedstocks fed in in the manufacture of further part-batches.
