- | The STD recipe works well for mixing Sylgard 184 resin. It should be programmed for 30 seconds of | + | |
- | mixing at 2000 RPM and 30 seconds of defoaming at 2200 rpm. Please do not change this recipe. | + | |
- | **Operation mode**: If you would like to use different settings please use the STEP mode. Stepwise mode allows access to multiple steps of operation and enables the user to vary the revolution speed, while standard mode only allows for variation of mixing time within one step. You can switch between these modes using the MODE button. Each step of operation can have one or two sub-steps - mixing and, possibly, | + | {{ :tools: |
