Claim 19:
20. An automated precision powder coating batch system, comprising:
a plurality of storage bins configured to store a corresponding plurality of raw materials for preparation of a batch of powder coating, each of the storage bins including an automated dispenser configured to dispense a desired quantity of raw material within the storage bin into a corresponding raw material container, wherein the desired quantity of raw material dispensed into the raw material container is determined by a sensed weight of the raw material container;
a robotic arm configured to sequence a transfer of the raw material contents of the raw material containers into a mixing container; and
a central processor configured to receive instructions to initiate preparation of the batch of powder coating, whereupon receipt of the instructions, the central processor instructs the automated dispensers to dispense the desired quantities of raw materials into the raw material containers, and instructs the robotic arm to transfer the raw material contents of the raw material containers to the mixing container according to a defined batch script.
